I am trying to find a complete answer to what do I need to do in order to update the kindle software to the latest version (5.8.7) to no avail.
Do I need to install/update anything before updating? Can I update over the air or do I need to download a bin?

I think you can do it either way -- but it you want it NOW, you might neet to download a bin. If you are content to wait till Amazon updates you, you can do it over the air.

I have read that the jailbreak survives the update, but will the python install, the screensaver hack and the KUAL installation survive the jailbreak too or do I need to reinstall anything?

All those extra pieces need to be reinstalled after an update. (as I understand it)

Also, will I lose anything in the kindle (bookmarks, books...)
Thanks a lot for your help!

I pretty sure everything stays intact. Regular forum answerers, have I erred on my replies?
