My kindle updated itself to 3.2.1 while I wasn't paying attention and broke both wifi and the scripts I was running which relied upon it. Sad times. I'm now trying to implement this on a kindle 3 wifi with rather little success.

I've reset to factory defaults. Wifi is off. Documents is empty, and called documents.bak for good measure. A script checks to see if the kindle is available at a rate of once a second, and as soon as it can, the update is copied across and the kindle unmounted. I'm getting fairly good at hitting restart too, on ten tries or so.

At a bit of a loss. Sad times.
