Any new KF8 news lately?
I know KF8 was supposed to hit the Fire first and then move down to it's siblings. I know there was a demo out and it was in beta a few weeks ago. Has anyone heard anything lately as far when it may be coming out? Has anyone heard anything concerning exactly which units will eventually get the update? It was originally said that the current generation would get them and there's some question as to whether the K3 is included in that since it was renamed the Kindle Keyboard and is still for sale.

Just curious if anyone has heard anymore than I have.

Thanks.

- Byron

Update: an Amazon representative responded with a more detailed note after the form letter. Unfortunately, the response only raises more questions. The rep told us that Kindle Format 8 simply doesn’t exist yet, hence there’s no way to provide a specific timeframe (since it’s still being built).
