My device is old Kindle Keyboard, I'm not sure if it's relative to the device, but it does support Kindle Format 8 after updated to version 3.4
Thanks.
KindleGen will produce a KF8 file for you from an ePub. Atlantis Word Processor can take a word file and produce both an ePub and a KF8 file at the touch of a button if you have KindleGen installed as well.

It may be that Amazon has not updated their information on your device. At some point you can probably get a KF8 from them directly. You might want to contact them.
