I really appreciate, Duck, that you brought this to our attention, because it will be a great addition to the Kindle world, either directly, or because Amazon will implement some of their ideas and improve their firmware. Of course, it doesn't look like they will ever update firmware for my Kindle 2, so I may have to depend on Duokan. I registered on their site, as you suggested. I'd like to send them a little thanks. I'm a little worried that, if I use Google Translate, I might be asking someone to have sex with me, rather than politely thanking them. Then someday, a huge Chinese man will appear at my door with a suitcase... and... and...

I only have wifi on this one, and the clock did not keep up during some reboots, etc. So, I thought - why bother - it's timing are good enough if you can adjust it now and then over network. Have no clue about the hardware. There may be some time-device somewhere. With the power management circuitry perhaps ?
Any idea what Amazon supply in their developers tools - do they hook up with serial line or what ?
btw. some post said there were no more development on Kindle2, and they viewed it with some interest of that reason.
