Touchscreen Kindle owners (other than KT (K5) and PW-1, your safe from change):

If there is any possible chance that you might want to use any of our add-ins, now or in the future, you must jailbreak your device before it updates to firmware version 5.8.8

Our jailbreak does not effect the operation of your Kindle in any way.
It only enables the Kindle to install packages signed with our signature certificate in addition to Amazon's certificate.

The chance of there ever being a jail break for firmware 5.8.8 or newer is somewhere between slim and none.
