Superglue the screwdriver to the screw -- the last resort, when the space is very confined -- no room for pliers or cutting a new grove in the screw head. I shouldn't complain -- it works fine, and, with the fake registration hack, I have all my options for reading. I just won't be able to read my NYTimes on it, which is no big deal as I have several Kindle Keyboards which work.
The most recent update does not change the version number.
Where it probably should show as 2.5.8.1, it remains at 2.5.8
Browse the Amazon firmware listings for your model until you find the 'caup ....' - something like that, it will have 'ca' at the start.
