Device: Kindle Touch 2
Instructions unclear, wasted half an hour hard resetting the Kindle and trying to get past the "register your kindle" screen because I missed "step 2.5". Duh. It worked perfectly after copying the "jb" script to the Kindle's storage. Surprisingly straightforward too - just had to insert an entry into my router's hosts file.

I don't know who you are, Branch Delay, but you're awesome.

I'm hoping you'll do a writeup of how this works. WebKit exploit and fontconfig? Does fontconfig mess up the permissions on /etc/uks or something?

Edit: device is a Kindle Touch 2, language set to UK English.
