Finally, Amazon has posted the 2.5 firmware version files for the Kindle @2
and Kindle DX. You can find them on their
Kindle
Software Updates page. For your convenience, direct links to the files are
posted below:
Which Kindle Do I have?
Look on the back of your Kindle for the serial number and model number
inforamtion. For Kindle 2: if the serial number begins with "B002" and the model number
is "D00511", then it is a US (orginal) Kindle 2. If the serial number begins with "B003"
and the model number is "D00701" then it is a Global/International Kindle 2.
For the DX, if the model number begins with "B004" then it is a US (original)
Kindle DX, while the Global/International DX serial number will begin wtih "B005".
If you have covered up your serial number with a skin or such, turn on
your Kindle, go to the Settings page (Home -> Settings),
and type in "411" on the keyboard. This should display the "411" page,
which will include your Kindle's serial number.
