The guides that I found that explained how to put your Kindle into USB mode are made for Windows users. This is yet another hurdle in my path to converting/jailbreaking my STORE DEMO KINDLE TOUCH into a useable version because I own a Mac computer.
Is there any chance that somebody out there has information that can steer me in the right direction?


Thanks in advance!
Read the "simple debricking" sticky thread for ideas. Jailbreaking can only be done AFTER debricking.

Check out this thread for getting 3G working after debricking:

There is a Mac version of fastboot. There is also a cross-platform imx_usb_loader tool that can be used instead of the windows-specific MfgTool. Or you can run MfgTool in a VM.
