At the risk of being that guy - oh what the heck, I already am around here, right? - EK are doing a bit of a sleight of hand with their staff, because ex3 is actually the name of the hardware base that this software upgrade is being put on.

Panasonic is probably the leading manufacturer of IFE systems out there - as in, the airlines that are rated the best for IFE such as EK and SQ use it. ex3 is the latest release (actually it's been out for a while, but of course each airline customer gets to play with massive customisations in both hardware and software, as you can see with EK). ex2 is the older style ICE digital system as you can see from the controllers, ex3 is what the newest planes have. To retrofit you would have to change the entire hardware system, which means new seats, new everything - so I would expect to see the new software on the current ex3 equipped planes, and the new hardware ports on future deliveries.
