No, not really. I'm not defending Amazon or Jesse83, but Kindle without software, provided by Amazon (imagine fully erased, blank internal eMMC or, not so radically, eMMC with standard Freescale BSP), would be just a good development board in pretty case, not a customer-ready eReader with some [UI] flaws. If you've bought development board, then, even in case of PW, you still can access it through serial port.

And, then, you are providing an easy way to disable Special Offers with JBPatch. What did you expect from business owners? "Ah, nevermind! We don't need revenue from ads, these homebrew developers are good guys, so let's keep status quo."

Let the flame begins
