It may be that Amazon/Lab126 has been able to prevent our current jailbreak with the release of firmware 5.8.8 version.
The 5.8.8 version firmware is being pushed to all PW-2 and newer devices (all i.MX6 devices).
There is also one report that the current jailbreak process has new difficulties introduced with the 5.8.7.0.1 firmware release.
First 5.8.8 failure report by checkmermaid:

Please add success/failure reports to this thread.

Update:
I tried to stay connected with my PC, and hold the power/unlock key in order to force the Kindle to reboot. Luckily the system was able to boot into the update mode, but soon a "failure" notification jumped out said "update error: 16". This may explain something to the developers.
