To upgrade, select menu | settings | Advanced | Firmware Update | Latest Firmware.
Make sure you put the phone in the charging cradle before starting the upgrade; otherwise the phone will timeout and just go blank.
The upgrade will take a while. Be patient and let it run. Watch the the screen to assure that the upgrade is still going.
