Yes, when I jumper from RX to TX on the kindle with my UART still connected and with the battery pulled (and no usb power connected), then every thing I type in Putty is echoed back to me. If I remove the jumper, nothing I type is echoed back to me.
Now I'm afraid you're going to tell me that this is good news / bad news. The good news is that I can solder ok. The bad news is that my Kindle is beyond recovery.
