   * Most command responses changed to ''OK'' and ''ERR''. Move state responses still exist (e.g.,  <movename> ''BEGIN'' upon start, and <movename> ''END'' upon completion).   * Most command responses changed to ''OK'' and ''ERR''. Move state responses still exist (e.g.,  <movename> ''BEGIN'' upon start, and <movename> ''END'' upon completion).
   * OTA responses now ''BEGIN OTA'', ''OTA ERR'', and ''OTA SUCCESS''.   * OTA responses now ''BEGIN OTA'', ''OTA ERR'', and ''OTA SUCCESS''.
-  * BLE MTU changed to 512.+  * BLE MTU and Generic Access Profile (GAP) LE Suggested Data Length changed to 512.
   * EarGear 2 support is currently intended to require a forced update of the application and the firmware so that both can support the significant changes to the EarGear 2:   * EarGear 2 support is currently intended to require a forced update of the application and the firmware so that both can support the significant changes to the EarGear 2:
-    * EarGear 2 moves are now internal to the firmware, and called with the same move commands as other products (e.g., ''TAILFA'').+    * EarGear 2 moves are now internal to the firmware, and __called with the same move commands as other products__ (e.g., ''TAILFA'').
     * ''DSSP'' and ''USERMOVE'' will operate identically across all products, including the EarGear 2.     * ''DSSP'' and ''USERMOVE'' will operate identically across all products, including the EarGear 2.
     * [[en:dev:tailcontrol-command-protocol#listen_mode|Listen Mode]] and [[en:dev:tailcontrol-command-protocol#tilt_mode|Tilt Mode]] for EarGear 2 runs onboard the firmware, but still emits triggers back to the application.     * [[en:dev:tailcontrol-command-protocol#listen_mode|Listen Mode]] and [[en:dev:tailcontrol-command-protocol#tilt_mode|Tilt Mode]] for EarGear 2 runs onboard the firmware, but still emits triggers back to the application.
     * ''HWVER'' Returns ''EG2 x.x'' for EarGear 2 controller hardware, instead of ''HWVER B''.     * ''HWVER'' Returns ''EG2 x.x'' for EarGear 2 controller hardware, instead of ''HWVER B''.
-  * Speculative: TailCoNTROL will use a new Service and Characteristics UUIDs going forward, to distinguish it from previous firmwares (and to further enforce the "forklift upgrade" required). 
   * ''CONFRD'' command removed, replaced by ''READCONF'' and ''READNVS''.   * ''CONFRD'' command removed, replaced by ''READCONF'' and ''READNVS''.
 +  * ''CONFWR'' command replaced with ''WRITECONF''.
 +  * ''VERA'' command for iOS will be removed (no longer needed if applications supports larger MTU).
 +  * TailCoNTROL will use a new Service and Characteristics UUIDs going forward, to distinguish it from previous firmwares (and to further enforce the "forklift upgrade" required).
 +    * TAILCONTROL_SRV_UUID "19F8ADE2-D0C6-4C0A-912A-30601D9B3060"
 +    * SYS_CHRC_RX_UUID "5E4D86AC-EF2F-466F-A857-8776D45FFBC2"
 +    * SYS_CHRC_TX_UUID "567A99D6-A442-4AC0-B676-4993BF95F805"
 +    * BATT_VOLTAGE_UUID "E818BDA3-88A7-43C0-8509-6E0BBB6F55D9"
 +  * ''HWVER'' will return the hardware identifier strings prefixed by ''HWVER'' (e.g., ''HWVER EG 4.0'').
 +  * Design note: application is responsible for generating a random (strong) 6-digit passkey, setting that using the ''SETPUSSKEY'' command, and displaying that key to the user in order to proceed with the binding process.
