Heck, I waited 20 minutes.

In general:

Try to get into the recovery menu -
Export FAT partition -
Connect USB cable to computer -
Put Amazon PW2 update_*.bin in root of device -
Eject (or safely disconnect) Kindle -
Disconnect USB cable -
Reboot

That *should* install the non-demo firmware for you. (your done - put it together)
Nope, not managed it yet! Got to dig out a cable I can cut up, and then find my serial->usb adaptor (and hope that works!!)

Quick question - how do you get it into recovery mode? Did a bit of searching, but couldn't find any definitive answer
