That implies that:
- the touchscreen FW could modify the filesystem (to inject the MR development certificate)
- the touchscreen FW is unified across devices (or even across revisions of the same device)
- that it's safe to flash it in userland.
- that it doesn't do cryptographic verification.
That's a lot of assumptions here. And couldn't this be a malware vector? (You know, people turning Kindles into botnets or something)
