How to determine firmware on new Kindle Paperwhite?
I was curious if I could change the screensaver on my Kindle. I went and found a few things but I can't seem to find a way to determine the firmware on my kindle. None of the amazon links seem to help.

This my menu/setting screen on my kindle.

Any ideas?

Thanks. Who would have thought I needed to go into the menu of the settings menu. I appreciate the help.

It is going to be series 5.6.x firmware if it isn't already, RSN, unless you turn on airplane mode, NOW.
