I've also tried to reboot the kindle via holding the switch for 15 seconds and via going to the menu. What do you guys think this could be? I think it might be that the latest hacks do not work for the 2.5.7 firmware.
First I tried update_jailbreak_0.4.N_k2i_install.bin in the zip file kindle-jailbreak-0.4.N.zip and then I tried update_jailbreak_k2i_install.bin in the zip file kindle-jailbreak-0.3.N.zip .
Fyi...I don't have any hacks. Strange but true. :-/
Any help would be appreciated.

If I understand you correctly, after you sideload the jailbreak into your K2i root folder, are you then going into the settings screen on your Kindle and actually selecting the update my Kindle option? This actually installs it onto your Kindle.
Once you have done this, and your Kindle reboots itself, you then have to install the separate screensaver hack as well (if I remember correctly). Once you do that, repeat the same process as in the last paragraph.
If the option to Update your Kindle from the settings screen is greyed after sideloading either the jailbreak or screensaver hack into your root directory, that usually means you either did it incorrectly, or have selected the incorrect hack.
If you successfully manage to update twice, you then need to actually "move" some new images into the screensaver folder and then reboot/restart.
At least that is how I recall the process going, anyway. Hope that helps some.
