That's good to hear. I don't plan on using the eShop anyway, but I'd hate to have my 3DS' capabilities stunted because I haven't updated since 1.1a.I can confirm that the rumours about eShop not working with an emuNAND created with Omega 2.1 are pure bullshit.
It's working and the content shown in the store is the same as always.
Maybe lambstone meant that the eShop of Australia doesn't have too much content, who knows...
