How?
And, if so, how can a customer like us provide one?
When the kindles are shipped they have a customer image, haven't they?

Really,
that is why we included the word: "initial" in the filenames, they are the first to be installed on new hardware.

They are specifically packaged so that they can pass the "Downgrade Attack" test. Among other things.
Since they should never have shown up outside of the factory, being easy to jail break is one of those things.

Quite easy - if someone has a new-in-the-box, never yet powered on Kindle.

When the Kindle arrives at the customer's home, it is ***running*** a customer, production release.
But the previous installation image can still be recovered from the device.

Unless someone in Japan volunteers to do the recovery on their device, the PW3-32 will never be jail broken with this jail break.
Still waiting for that someone in Japan to PM me for the details.
