I did see the OTA blocking note, but since that is in step 7, does not really help/apply while going through steps 4-6. Plus I imagine it would get wiped out anyway with the downgrade in step 4?
I downloaded everything with a PC and then transferred via usb (with the exception of the 5.8.1 bin file which I could not understand how to get by the instructions in step 7 spoiler.
I guess my problem in step 7 was that I couldn't find the download page referenced in step one. I clicked the link in step 3 and saw a bunch of files and figured I was good to go. My bad.
I just managed to find this page with a google search - no idea how you navigate to it via amazon

Maybe including the above link in it in step 7 (1), would be of benefit?
Either way, appreciate all the work. I know it is a big job maintaining the code and also writing all these instructions.

Your post is one of the big reasons I recommend reading ALL the instructions at least twice and asking questions before even starting the jailbreak.
