Is there a way to recover the books on the Kindle ?
Alternately, is it possible to remove/change the password without resetting the device ?
Maybe a serial port can help retrieving all books before you go for a reset. There is also some wonky password which will reset the Kindle if you type it in. And you will have to copy files into your system through a command-line like PuTTY. I have never tried it.Coz mine is a JB-ed kindle
