Hello again!

. I was out of computer reach for the past week, so I'll try to cram as much info in one tiny little post as possible ^^.

I'll update both the first post and the wiki pages ASAP to avoid further confusion.

First: Huge thanks to yifanlu for the new jaibreak, congrats!

Now, some pointers for confused users:

Wether you're still on FW 3.0 or upgraded to FW 3.1 (willingly or not), here's what you should know:

* Both the fonts & screensavers hack work on FW 3.1.
* You can safely upgrade a hacked Kindle to FW 3.1, without uninstalling any of my hacks before.
* My old jailbreak is useless on FW 3.1, so you can safely remove it (it only consists of a single file added to the FS), but it's no big deal if you don't.
* You'll have to install yifanlu's jailbreak if you care about being able to install/uninstall/update your hacks on FW 3.1.
