Summary: The kindles have a "Magic Bullet" that will ALWAYS allow custom code to be installed on them, including anything from just adding a jailbreak key, custom screensaver or custom fonts, all the way up to installing a completely different operating system on them, like Android OS. These tools already exist and we know how to use them. Simple step-by-step instructions will be provided, along with custom partition images that already contain the custom changes that we want.

Conclusion: So, good news all around. Not just for me, but for everybody. Yes?

UPDATE: Because this grew into a book-like "manifesto", I broke it up into chapters and added chapter titles. It is really a topic of its own, so I moved it to a new thread called "Fastboot Manifesto". This also replaced previous posted contents that were evolving into the new content as I reworked it and thought about it more.
