Thank you. At this point I just want an e-ink device that can do TXT and PDF files, so I can do my professional work without turning into a non-functional zombie, as is currently the case. I'll have to give up all the .azw3 books I have on my Kindle 7, I guess. My priority is simply getting a device that is going to have an older firmware on it. It's really somewhat of a situation of desperation at the moment.

Did the Kindle DX receive automatic updates via 3G connection? If so, until what year?

What is the latest firmware version for the DX, and from what year?

Thank you in advance!

Update: I found that the latest firmware version for the DX is 2.5.8, and confirmed that this is indeed the firmware version of the DX that I have found online. Does anyone know what year this version is from? I am suspecting that it is relatively recent...
