Device: Kindle PW1/PW2
Question Kindle PW1 bricked(?)

Hey guys.
PW1 seems to become bricked after being connected to MacBook to place a file into documents and disconnected.
At first device refused to open any book, lost it's wi-fi MAC address (see attached image) and after being rebooted it stucked on the kindle bootscreen (with a tree) and now is bricked

It doesn't appear as a device on a mac or a winxp.
But if the battery is totally drained (when device shows that the battery needs to be charged) device appears as a kindle drive which system unfortunately cannot access.

As I see there is a thread here to unbrick older generations of Kindle is there something applicable for PW1?

Is there any possibility to unbrick the device?
I understand that it's quite old but anyway it bricked just after being connected to computer Kindle is valuable as it was a present.
