Or, alternatively, try to downgrade the firmware to 5.3.7, run into more problems, SO says, "here, let me", switches on wi-fi, Kindle "upgrades" to 5.14.3, tries to download the 5000 books I have in the cloud on to my little old KT3, everything goes doolally, and I end up with a brick and forking out £80 for a new Kindle I don't want with a home page and book listing GUI I loathe... And a new improved drinking problem.

Thanks to everyone who kindly tried to help me with what SHOULD HAVE been an easy problem. I just wanted to change the internal date. Did that really have to be so hard, Amazon? Well, did it?
