I have multiple kindles that use 192.168.15.244, and they have different RSA keys. Changing the key in the known_hosts file just makes the problem come back when you plug in a different kindle using that IP address. You could copy the RSA private key inside the kindles to the other kindles so they all match. Or you could do like I did and replace the known_hosts file on my host PC with a symlink to /dev/null. Now when I SSH in it just has a one line notice that it is "permanently" adding a new key (to /dev/null).

Or just use a different IP address for each Kindle.
Since that private address range is 192.168.0.0/16 you shouldn't run into this problem until you have more than (2^16)-3 Kindles hooked up.
The message says which key (line number, same thing) in your known_hosts file is the conflicting one - use a text editor to delete it.
With known_hosts redirected to /dev/null you lose host authentication, not something you want to throw away if using your ssh client to connect to things other than a single Kindle under test.
