'02 Aero software updates?

Several weeks ago someone said that he had had the '02 automatic transmission software upgraded. I asked the local dealer about this, but they had no information about any kind of updates. With the current software, the geabox "learns" a fast driving style real quick and when I start driving slowly (30-40 km/h), the gearbox acts jerky for some time. The old 4-speed auto box was much better in this respect, IMHO.
I also asked about new software for the ECU, but the answer was the same: "We don't know of any updates". I'd like to get rid of the sudden "jump" when I start pressing the gas pedal after decelerating. It seems the ECU switches on the fuel supply more abruptly than in my previous '99 9-5. I have seen the same "feature" on some German cars and I don't like it..
I wonder if any updates are available?

Overall, I have been very happy with my Aero (automatic, AS3, xenons, etc). No real problems during the 8 months I've had the car (well, never had any major problems with any Saab). I'm thinking of getting some 60 more horses sometime, but for normal driving, the 250 horses are enough :)
