Request for BIN file that Disables Updating

As dsmid suggests, "Automatic update can be easily disabled but it requires installed usbnetwork. I suppose creating hack that would disable it by installing a special *_install.bin file wouldn't take much time. "

Due to the fact that Amazon may be auto-updating the Kindle to 3.1 when connected to 3G, I would extremely appreciate this, which would stop the Kindle from updating.

Thanks
