provided the usbNetwork hack installed, I can easily add a "network" part to the existing
launchpad daemon. This addition will be listening to incoming UDP multicast packets
sent by your desktop application and translate them directly to whatever Kindle shell
commands you want.
You can also use Kindle serial console, this solution will not require any hacks at all.
Some mechanical/soldering work will be required in this case. But this approach can noticeably
simplify the whole thing.
