0511 BIOS meant for 8.9" Models?

Is it possible that the "unofficial" 0511 BIOS version discussed in the Chinese Mobile01 forum is really meant for the forthcoming models with the 8.9" 1024 x768 LCD screens?

Users who have installed the BIOS on their current models are reporting much brighter screens, as well as the BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) while running under Windows XP. More importantly, they are finding out they can't revert back to the original BIOS.
