Can I update my 1st Generation Fire HD to the latest software on the HD second generation?

I was noticing in store the second generation HD software looks refreshed and different than the one on my current Kindle. I checked for updates but it says I have none. Is there a way to manually install the update or a way around to check for it? Thanks

If Amazon writes a version for the old hardware, yes. But it's highly doubtful that they will. There's no profit in spending a few million dollars developing free software for hardware you've already sold.

Oh well. I bought it basically new on eBay for $60 (a steal! ). Also, mine has the front facing camera so there's no room for complaints lol. Thanks
