Exactly

That's why I was asking for the bluetooth capabilities... (I've often had bad experiences with bluetooth under Linux)

I confirm that kterm works on the KT3W (G000KA) with latest firmware (5.8.1.1)...

Of course, it only gives access to a busybox, not a fully-fledged GNU environment, but it's already *GREAT*...

and the network is here too (e.g wget http://www.google.com works), so the question is really how (and firstly if) the bluetooth stack will allow to connect an external keyboard and thus give a really nice and small linux terminal on the go (e-ink screen and wireless keyboard, who needs more ?)...

PS: Thanks a million for your great work on the kindle jailbreak !
