They aren't replacing the firmware, it's a very common misconception. It's a jailbreak, in that it means they can run 3rd party code. It still just runs on top of the normal Kindle OS. And, you don't need to jailbreak to read sideloaded content as Kindles support sideloading stock. That's another misconception. They just don't read EPUB format natively.
