EDIT: Yep.

2.3:
Minimum OTA 291330095
Target OTA 399380047

2.5.8:
Minimum OTA 399380047

Perfect match .

Just fudge the D/L link manually if FW 2.3 isn't listed anymore on Amazon's Kindle Software Update page.
It no longer lists the older FW, so ....

https://s3.amazonaws.com/G7G_Firmwar...e_2.3_B002.bin

Install that one, and then ....

https://s3.amazonaws.com/G7G_Firmwar...2.5.8_B002.bin

Then install that one.
