2) As someone who has never used a Kindle. Do the Kindle's performance ever bog down over time? This happens a lot on Android devices and usually I do a "reset" to improve performance, obviously with the JB, I can't do that anymore. Especially if I want to update to the latest Kindle update.
3) That leads me to my final question, is there any reports of accounts or devices being banned after JB and after an update?

1) On newer Kindles, it seems SO status isn't set until you register. Is there a particular reason you wish to see SO status prior to JB? I've always just JB first before registering. Then pay the $15-20 to remove SO after.
2) Hmm, probably slower full text search if you have thousands of books? Organization on Kindle kinda sucks so even with Calibre+LibrarianSync to handle collections, I keep less than a thousand books on my PW3. Haven't noticed any slowdowns in title/author search with those many books.
3) None that I've seen so far.
