Hi,

This is kind of funny.
I'm doing project, and I looked for a way to use my PW3 for monitoring and control purpose.
I came on this thread which sparked my interest, notably because I tried to run web apps in the past on kindle which was difficult due to native browser limitations regarding recent javascript, ...

What is suprising, is when I looked at your presentation on youtube, it showed another video with exactly the same project I'm currently working on (an autonomous lawn mower robot).
I first thought it was suggested based on my history but i saw it was coming from same user....
Kind of nice coincidence to look for kindle subject and finally find the very same project your working on

So as I, maybe you had the intent to connect your kindle to an arduino in order to monitor/control it using serial communication over OTG usb port?

I'd be interested knowing if Alpine image, could help?

As it is running on top of original kernel, I imagine it inherits same capabilities/limitation.
Given someone else anwser on this thread, it seems it may require compilation and load of additional modules, so probably it won't..

Btw, I would still be interested if you or someone managed to do serial communication over ttyUSB ?

Thanks I find it great idea to get recent chromium run on kindle!
It will be surely useful to run web apps, and develop some tools based on it.
