Refurbed Kindle Paperwhite 3G 2012
Just a quick question.
If i buy a refurbished KPW 2012, will it have a fw that's too "advanced" for JBPatch? |

Depends whether or not Amazon update refurbished devices with the latest firmware. You could ask them; no need to mention JB, just ask if it's likely to come with the latest firmware.

Whatever you do, don't turn on the WiFi until after you have tried jailbreaking. Or else it will download and install the latest firmware regardless.
