It would have been nice if amazon started doing detailed changelogs. I love reading the technical stuff.
Updating right now |

Update works fine (K3 WiFi). Looks like sorting has changed because a couple of items jumped up in the list. By collection gives by collection, but then most recently used as a seconary search key.
Browser still hangs on facebook.com |

Upgrade and page refresh
Am I just being paranoid... or does the page refresh now seem much 'rougher' after the upgrade.
Of course I cannot downgrade to see if that is the case! |

@boca I think you might be right about that, it's a bit hard to tell. I guess you'd need two K3's side by side to really check it proper.

Use touch.facebook.com or m.facebook.com works fine for me.

Thanks for the update notice. I just installed it. Will do my outside reading test tomorrow to see if the slow page turns are cured.

It seems to me that page turns are even faster. And the connection to my WIFI connects faster now.
