You can send a NOTIFY to the phone with 'Event: check-sync', to tell the phone 
it should re-read its settings. If the settings contain a new firmware, and 
the phone is set to auto-update it should (see below) update to the new 
firmware automatically.

That is probably related to what Bob already described: we inserted a 
protection against upgrading the firmware during a running call. 
Unfortunately this protection was a little bit to strong. With firmware 3.60f 
or later this should not happen any more.
