Unhappy Where's the Bookerly font on my Paperwhite?
I just got a refurb Paperwhite of the current generation. I updated the firmware, and it's now on 5.6.1.0.6.

I thought this was supposed to have the new "Bookerly" font available, but in the font selection setting I only see Baskerville, Caecilia, Caecilia Condensed, Futura, Helvetica, and Palatino.

Where's this new Bookerly thing? Wasn't it supposed to be out last month?

Update: Oh, that explains it. Contacted Amazon support, turns out I don't have the latest firmware after all. I guess I must have downloaded the latest firmware for the prior generation of Paperwhite. I'd delete this thread, but it looks like I don't get that option in editing.
