Hello fellow Kindlers !!!
I thought I would put all the links I used to get 2.5.2 at the start of a new thread, seeing that it'll save some people trying to track down them in the other threads
International users (not sure if the US version has different update files)
HOW TO UPDATE YOUR KINDLE
What you'll need to do
1) Check your version HOME ----> MENU ----> SETTINGS
you'll see the version number down the bottom right of the screen
eg. 2.3 (3xxxxxxxxxx) or 2.3.3 (xxxxxxxxxxxx) or 2.3.4 (xxxxxxxxxxx)
2) If you don't already have 2.3.3 (i.e. only 2.3) you'll need to update to this version first (if you have 2.3.3 skip to next step, STEP 3)
i) Download
ii) Transfer the .bin file to the root folder of your kindle
iii) EJECT your kindle from your computer, and select UPDATE YOUR KINDLE from the following path
HOME ---> MENU ---> SETTINGS ---> MENU ---> Update your Kindle
iv) Once the upgrade has installed (don't switch of your kindle or do anything while it is happening) your kindle should restart and if you check your version number again (as in STEP 1), you should see the new update in effect
3) Then update to 2.3.4 in the same way as in STEP 2 above
**** you need 2.3.3 installed to get 2.3.4 installed ***
4) Then update to 2.5.2 in the same way again
The whole process should only take about 10 minutes (NOT including downloading the files of course)
ANYWAY, HERE ARE THE LINKS FOR THE FILES
2.3.3

2.3.4

2.5.2

If you don't have a premium account you may have to wait between getting each file (I'm sure there are other sites hosting the same files... these are the ones I used though)... if you want them straight away, you'll have to fork out the 10 bucks to get a one month premium acoount... I did... it was worth it
Now I'm going to start a thread for people to vent their elation at how frakking good the 2.5.2 update is... it is awesome !!!!
