Funny -- I find OSX to be both visually repulsive and functionally incoherent.

So in my admittedly biased opinion, they have dismally failed on both counts, and most other companies are better than them.

I have no particular issues with iOS, other than finding it... limited. In so many ways.

On another note, have any of you guys had trouble updating and keeping your jailbreaks? My OTA update hasn't happened and I was going to manually update, but i thought i should find out about this issue first (and see how people were liking the update)
If your jailbreak is current (>=1.13.N) and is gandalf-enabled so it works on fw>=5.6.x then it will be perfectly safe. The jailbreak is preserved, and 5.7.2 adds no additional challenges.

You haven't mentioned which model you have, and your profile only says "Amazon Kindle" -- so it is difficult for me to give a more accurate answer (e.g. "You have a KV/PW3 so your jailbreak is definitely up-to-date").
