Yesterday when I found out that I must register device to make it fully functional I was pretty angry, had sleepless night so I did some reading on jailbreaking - will register manualy now, I dont mind the web browser. There is a lot stuff especially at this site, so I think you all are doing very good job. There are always few people who do not appreciate hard work, but the rest do
You can also COMPUTE the password, where the 3 hex digits a cut from the middle of the md5sum of the serial number, using the same algorithm as the web page uses.

My questions are still unanswered:
1) Did you use an all uppercase serial number with the "kindle password" web page?
2) Is your password different from the one generated by the web page?

Try the web page again, and compare the results to your pw. If needed, we want to update the algorithm used by the web page.
