Hello.
I was wondering if it's even worth going through the trouble of jailbreaking it. The only reason I wanted to do it was because of KOReader or Duokan (ePub support), but considering that I would still wanna run the e-books through Calibre (especially through the "Hyphenate This" plugin), I don't even see a reason anymore. May as well just stay on official firmware. I mean, sure, Leafpad would (probably) be nice. A terminal would be nice too, with SSH capabilities (I'm running Arch Linux as my main OS). But in the grand scheme it just seems like a lot of work. Sure, the default margins that some Amazon CEO dreamed up are pathetic, the default fonts lose their interest after a while, but they work, and over all I'm kinda happy with the device itself, I guess. ePub would have been very useful for me, but considering that I still have to run them through Calibre (for the hyphenation), then I may as well output them as AZW3...
What are the other benefits of jailbreaking it? Chess? Sudoku? Come on... Maybe CBZ support through KOReader, for reading manga and such. That would be interesting, but then there's the "Kindle Comic Converter", so... better PDF support, what?
