ArsTechnica review of Kindle 2.5 update
http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/news/...f-features.ars

Including a description of Twitter/Facebook feature.

I'm still waiting to learn if there's any expanded Unicode support with the new font (specifically Cyrillic). Hmm, and whether password protection also extends to restricting access to content via USB.

People on the Amazon forums, the lucky...... who have gotten the 2.5 update have just stated that the font (Caecilla) just looks more crisp and the only addition is of two lager font sizes.

>_< They must be saving unicode support for a rainy day...
