You're confused on what source code they released. They released the patches to the GPL'd code that they are required by law to do, but none of their own programs (like the entirety of the Java Framework GUI, the audible/topaz/mobi libraries, power management daemon, eInk device drivers, etc.) are open source. This means that the source code they released doesn't really help anyone at all, unless you're really interested in how they modified busybox, which I sure ain't.
