Yes, certainly. Twobob's Balsamic demo played sound and video using a tweaked version of my gmplay, and it worked for about 20 seconds on my PW3 with cheap USB sound dongle befor segfaulting (using a KUAL extension, in fact). Debugging is in on yhe menu, and MP3 decoding, or use whatever built-in apps (or borrow from an earlier kindle model) than can already play mp3s.

It may not be hard to build open source players from source either with a good toolchain.

But Balsmic proves it can work.
