1. Jailbreak your Kindle.

2. Install "Launchpad" tool.

3. Firstly download the latest release from the Download page.

4. Create a folder named "customupdates" on the Kindle and copy the zip file into it.

5. Press Shift-Shift-I sequence on the Kindle for installion (if this is the first time you use launchpad: you only have 0.7 secs for the sequence!).

6. Press Shift-Shift-Space sequence on the Kindle to reload launchpad.

7. Done! now you can run the viewer via a Shift-P-D sequence.

While Launchpad is handy, it's not very user friendly. You might also want to try [KUAL][kual], which is an awesome GUI launcher for all kindle devices. twobob wrote a [guide][kual-guide] for launching KPV with KUAL.
