So you could say that Amazon runs its own archive.
The bad links you mentioned are all to "factory-use-only" firmware versions used in jail breaking, not customer-use firmware builds.
If you went to the PW2 device page now, you would find the current firmware's URL:
https://s3.amazonaws.com/firmwaredow..._v2_5.10.2.bin
but instead you want a less current firmware, just change the firmware numeric field in the URL (for PW2-5.9.6):
https://s3.amazonaws.com/firmwaredow...e_v2_5.9.6.bin
Hint:
If you quote this post, you can see the full URL rather than the shortened version.

That's exactly what I was after, thank you.
I've read a lot of your posts in various threads over the last week or so, I really appreciate the expertise and effort you put in to the site.
I think I'm going to keep an eye on the classifieds and see if I can pick up a 'broken' kindle to play with.
