If you do follow the directions to install a serial port, then the information that makes available is very likely to settle the "why" part of the question.
Translation:
You can not make any progress towards determining if it is fixable without the serial port connection.
If your not interested in gambling your time and effort, then use it as an exchange credit towards another Kindle purchase.
That is a "sure thing" type of gamble.

Oh, I already got the new Kindle. They just offered me discount no strings attached.
To be clear though, you're saying that there's at least a chance, yes? The cost for me would just be the cost of serial port (which is minimal) and perhaps a new solder iron (which I've been meaning to get anyways).
I'm not at all experienced with stuff like this, so I figure it'd be an interesting weekend project, and I don't really have anything lose.
