Upgrading fw from 1.03 to 1.08/1.09

I have neglected to upgrade my firmware since v.1.03 (I know, I know...) and I have a couple of questions - I'm most grateful for any help.

1. I'm in the UK.  Is there any reason to upgrade to 1.08 (which is the latest version on the UK site) rather than 1.09 on the US site?  My device is out of warranty so I'm not concerned about invalidating.

2. I've backed up all my data onto a connected USB drive just in case anything goes wrong.  What are the implications if I need to restore from the backup - is there any impact of the fact that the drive is FAT formatted?

3. Can I upgrade straight from 1.03 to the latest version or are there any intermediate steps recommended?

4. Is there anything else I can do to minimise the risk of data loss?  I have backed up but it'd be a pain in the proverbial to restore.

Thanks,
danair
