The original Oasis had no obvious serial port so a software jail break was the only option. The new model may be the same.

Amazon stated in the press release that a firmware update would be available on release day to add Audible. There is a remote possibility that the firmware installed on the device out of the box may be jail breakable while the update may not.

Those that desire a jail break may want to block this update until the status of it can be determined. It will probably be a short wait to find out one way or the other.
Good advice.

And the wait for the go/no-go information will not be a very long.
One of our active developers will receive the new Kindle on release date.
Probable a matter of a few hours.
