sounds like my email re the update was misunderstood. Here is the reply i received.
Hello,
The most recent version of Kindle software for Kindle (2nd Generation) and Kindle DX is 2.5. The most recent software for Kindle (Latest Generation) is 3.0.2.
The software update for Kindle (Latest Generation) includes general feature enhancements.
If your Kindle does not have the latest software, it's free and easy to download and install the update manually by following the instructions on the Kindle Software Updates Help page:
http://www.amazon.com/kindlesoftwareupdates
This page also includes information about the features included in the latest software update.
If any latest software update is done it would be informed on website.
I hope this information helps. Thanks for using Kindle.
Thank you for your recent inquiry. Did I solve your problem?
