Kindle 1.0.8 coming soon?
They already released the source code for it in their source code notice page.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/custom...deId=200203720 and here is a direct link to it http://kindle.s3.amazonaws.com/Kindl..._164820023.tar Not sure if this is old but my kindle still shows 1.0.4 as the latest fw. |

Some people here reported having 1.0.8 on their new Kindles.

Did anyone look for differences? I checked the kernel sources, and it appears the only changes here is added support for PVI's display controller (PVI-6001A).
// 1.0: Kindle 1.0.0 through 1.0.4 (Apollo only). // 1.1: Kindle 1.0.5 & later (Apollo/PVI-6001A). |

I got mine last week. It had 1.0.4. Looks like I got the update on Mon (25th). I haven't noticed anything, but I'm still learning the finer aspects to it.

Mine came with 1.0.8. I don't know what it looked like without it, so I can't say if there are any differences.
