I had a PW3 wifi running 5.7.4. It had been jailbroken years ago and koreader was working.

I tried winterbreak on it but failed (stuck at "wait" after reporting jailbreak done).
I managed to update manually Kindle to 5.14.1. Kindle is going strongly now.
I shall try again winterbreak, and if I succeed , I hope that the new Kual install will be immune to this problem. If one developer could confirm this point, it would be nice. I'll try again the jailbreak after the week-end.

The main difficulty seems to be not allowing OTA updates during the install of the jailbreak. Steps have to be carefully calculated.
