I just got a Kindle a few days ago and I was surprised to find that it came with 2.0 from the factory, and that it didn't update itself. I waited and waited.. left the wireless on, let it sleep... nothing. Finally had to manually install the new update the old fashioned way; download the new firmware from Amazon, drag it to the root directory on the Kindle 2, eject, go to home>menu>settings>menu>update.
I wonder though, does that option appear even if you haven't got the new firmware on the device? Right now that option is grayed out for me, but is that because I already have the most recent firmware?
