I went in to the settings and turned off the cover review and the book suggestions so not I do really like the home screen it is basically just like the previous version.

List view is still available.

ETA: I see that the video linked above says that list view is gone, but it is there under the middle drop down menu of the library screen. I don't think that has changed from the previous firmware.

Definitely keen to hear if the JB survives. Sounds like a nice update

Yes, its still there. Before though it was in the top right menu to change the view. Now its in like you said in the middle drop down where it lists all, books, docs and such.

Off topic: There hasn't been any development related discussion going on here. Does anyone know why this thread was moved to the Kindle Developer's Corner? (Usually a moderator will provide a reason when moving a thread.)

It was merged with knc1's post from the developer's corner (sorry, knc1).

Then he requested it be put back (okay, although *that* wasn't me) so somehow the whole thread ended up here.

Modern interface and quicker airplane mode? That's pretty much what I want from an update, looking forward trying it out!

Something about a new dyslexic font too, that could be interesting even if I'm unlikely to need it.

Just installed the update on my PW3. Everything looks crisper and clearer. I was a little jealous of the new nook I got my wife for Christmas. Not anymore. It's almost like I bought a new e-reader.

I think the page turning is smoother and more sensitive on my Voyage. Anyone else feel this?

Damn! I tried to update manually and got a message saying I'd downloaded the wrong one. What to do now?
