Also there is really no need to upgrade a reader unless your old reader is broken or has quirks that annoy you that are not in the new version, or adds new capability that you don't have yet that you want (like, say, a better way of reflowing pdfs). But mostly those upgrades don't really deliver the stuff I really want. In fact, I think that my last kindle firmware upgrade actually got rid of a function I loved, and I got that for free! without buying a new reader. Yay.
