You need read no further in that post or in that thread.
Of course you are welcome to try, and if you can figure out a way to install an older firmware on a device running 5.8.10 (without a serial port connection), we would like to know how you did it.
That is exactly what I wrote ! The link your posted explains that 5.8.10 can't be jailbroken by following the instructions. And still you insisted that I should read and follow your instructions ?!?!

So finally we can both agree:
Your link won't be of any help for me.

You are probably referring to this one then?

While I should be able to do all this I am not sure if its worth the struggles to me.

I currently feel just dumb for doing a firmware update right after getting the Kindle Paperwhite 3. Not sure if it was at "5.8.7" (or previous) when shipped but chances are it was :/
