Evidently they started producing the device (and testing in production) prior to building 5.8.1.1
But customer 5.8.1.1 was the first firmware version it shipped with.
I was very much surprised when I bought this KT3 black in December(!) 2016 in a Media Markt shop in Berlin, and found it still running 5.8.0 out of the box. No idea from which old store from what a far far away country these Kindles came. They just were a bargain "end of the year" offer: 50,- instead of 70,- Euros; and the small print text on the box was in "exotic" languages, interestingly NOT including German, nor French. (AFAIRC: Besides English: Russian, Spanish, Czech, Croatian, Latuvian, Chinese, etc...)

The KT3 a friend of mine got back in mid 2016 already shipped indeed with 5.8.2 or so ...
