Hello all!
I would like to give you some feedback about the method to prevent Kindle from upgrading.
I used the following method in a Kindle with 5.6.5 firmware and without jailbreak.
Quote:
UPDATE~.BIN
This file name is one used by the OTA update process, the update_*whatever*.bin is renamed to this name to be processed.
Create a folder by this name - all uppercase, with the ~ and the uppercase extension.
Enter the folder and create a file by the name:
.keepme
Yes, the first character is a period.
Uncertain if any versions of the firmware can detect and circumvent this one.

I would like to report that this method did not work on my Kindle.
I have used it, but even then I kept the airplane mode on most of time. I only turn airplane mode off when I need to download some daily news I receive on my Kindle. But one day I forgot to turn it on again, and when I opened my Kindle, it has upgraded to the new firmware
