Another question: are all the kindle models' serial ports compatible with a same adapter? https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Hard...ex#Serial_Port
R-Pi if you can meet the requirements of interfacing with 1.8v serial port.

Some cell phone adapters are 1.8v serial adapters.

Yes, all use same serial port specs.

How did you intend to input things on the K3 that would come out the operator's console serial port?

What where you going to do about the things that are already coming out the operator's console serial port?

Both sound like a programming nightmare to me.
