It is the first choice for the IGG (instant gratification generation) it just works, nearly instantly.

Does not require changes to the files in the Amazon image (which will be replaced by the next OTA update) just leave the disabled password authentication in the Kindle alone.

See directions in the USBnet package and/or the numerous threads written here on the subject of ssh on the Kindle.
I had that working once, but I generally just login using the computed password. I have hundreds of kindles and setting up pub-keys is an extra step. However, it is certainly much more convenient for the few MOST USED kindles.
