Extract to the root of your Kindle Drive. There are two items -- A folder called "update", and a file called "Update_oldupdate_install.bin"
Put the desired update, err, "downdate" into the folder "update".
Update your Kindle manually, from:
Menu ==> Settings ==> Menu ==> Update Your Kindle

I've followed the link above and downloaded the zip file as instructed. However, there are 2 zipped files, the 2nd is being read by my computer as a .gz extension, and it doesn't know what to do with it. I tried putting that whole file into the Updates folder, then following the instructions given, but my PW2 still shows v. 5.4.3. Not sure where I'm supposed to get the 'downdate' to put into the 'update' folder...

Thanks!
