Just bought my daughter a PW4. Turned it on and connected to internet. Then uploaded some manga and didn't look right. Noticed you can jailbreak and read CBZ files natively. I don't know if it came this way (never chose to update) but FW is at 5.12.2
I understand this likely might never be jailbreakable, but I do still have a couple of questions:

1. Do you typically see jailbreaks occur in the most current firmware or older firmware, ie: will I likely benefit putting the device into airplane mode or can I just let it do its own thing?

2. Has anybody had any luck continuously returning theirs until they get the FW version they want?
2.1. What do you say when returning it?
I know this isn't morally the best option, but I feel amazon brought it on themselves.

3. When exactly (specific to the hour would be nice) will 5.12.2 be jailbroken?

I've been reading through the forums for a few hours, but haven't read everything. If any of these questions have already been answered, please accept my apologies and I will pray for your forgiveness.

Best regards
Me
