I am just installing the Early Preview of Next Version 3.0.3 now on my Kindle Latest Generation. Anyone else using it?

I (think I) noticed a speedup from 3.0.2 to 3.0.3 in page turns and the browser "Seems more responsive".

Other than that, I haven't seen any other changes.
Have you rooted it yet?
(I have the screensaver hack and the dev keys hack so I can use KIF http://adq.livejournal.com/ on it. <3 old skool text adventure games on the kindle)

Installed it and haven't noticed much obvious change since 3.0.2. I was experiencing random reboots on that OS though so time will tell if they've been rectified.

hm... yea i installed 3.0.3 a while back... seems the same as 3.0.2...
people on the mobileread forums say that page turns/e-ink display are faster.
although how fast is dubious... i dont think i have noticed any significant change, having said that though i find the kindle 3's page turn speed to be very good - you dont really notice it at all
