All the prior versions are there, but you need to edit the version number to match what you are looking for because amazon only shows the most recent version. If you look through the various jailbreak threads you should be able to find instructions for getting firmware updates from amazon

Sticking to this version means you can always redo the factory fw jailbreak in case something happens.
Thanks for mentioning the size difference, this whole jailbreaking is all new to me, and with so many threads all over the place its very overwhelming on what to follow. I'll look around or just go with what ilovejedd pointed out, what you both said now gives me a better understanding to what I am looking for. Thanks again both of you
