I have two Kindles, one for 'backup' in case the main one fritzes out.

I'm out of EVDO range and can choose when & if I get the update.

Is there any reason NOT to get the update on one.....or both?

I wonder if there is some code inserted to disable further hacking, such as Jobs has done in Iphone updates.

It might be well to keep at least one unit in the 1.0 firmware. I don't use Kindle #2 much at all at present.

What are your thoughts?

Thanks in advance.
