Has anybody figured out when do they declare a general availability for the new firmware images, so that any owner can download them?

When new firmware is released it is sent out on a rolling basis . . so a few people get it first and then it spreads out to everyone. Obviously the new 2.6.1 hasn't reached your area yet - so your reader stays on 2.5.2.

If you wait a few more days it will be with you . . or you can sideload the new firmware if you feel confident by going here and following the instructions Please note though, manually updating is not officially supported by Kobo.
