Is this set into stone ?
Also I asked them about Firmware 5.1.0-11X support, this was their response:
Doesn't sound to encouraging... Who are those ppl that CAN make use of this product either way ? For as it is now it seems like a cheap cash in.

"Our current plan is to release for firmware version 4.5 while continuing work on a solution for 6.x + after release. (please see note below)"
So no 5.x Solution.
I and a few more guys, that bought it, will make a review on it.
My plan is to do the review from unpacking it out of the box, to succesfully running roms on it.
It'll land here on GBATemp ofcourse.

So? Why would they make one? Going for the latest is best, since you can always use a game to update you to that specific version. So there's more consoles that can hit 6.x than 5.x.
And the larger your potential audience is, the larger your potential profits.
I'm sitting back watching with interest on how all of this will pan out, I don't have a 3DS at the moment and while I don't mind buying games I love me a flash card, that said I am also sure others will follow in gateways footsteps and improve on there methods for less, for me that's when to invest 
Now I'm still at 5.x but I'm thinking about just updating to 6.x... What I've been worried about is if 6.x support is impossible, while 5.x might just become possible. 6.x might have blocked some new huge thing? I don't know, that's just why I've not updated yet.
If I were you, I wont update. I got Stuck to 4.x because R4i gold 3D rev6 did not work with 4.x I was hope they would do something but still. and thank to them, I can now use Gateway
bestbuy has 3 preowned games for $50, so tempting. But I think I'll wait for the gateway.
Sadly, I'm on 6.1, so maybe still a while.

Might just be updating their site. Some sub-pages still work: http://www.gateway-3ds.com/downloads.html

Jayro:
Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.+1 -

@Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.+1

They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite+1
