I think I'll stick around

That's right!
I quickly made a fool of myself in the kindle developing forum by writing an application that was already made (I didn't know this at the time), then promptly released it as if it were the first of it's kind.

But hey, this place looks lively enough, I think I'll stick around

So +1 for dev ability, +1 for follow-through and execution, and -1 for market research. The dev geeks will probably forgive you.

You're forgiven.

At least we know people are interested. (Although granted, knc1's server statistics give a pretty good idea of how interesting the jailbreak is -- lots).

hehe, thanks you two

I actually just sent my paperwhite back to Amazon for a refund. I've gone back to my old Sony PRS-t1. While there's something to be said for Kindle's native OS, and higher res screen, I couldn't do without some of my apk's

Your avatar is fatally flawed. (No PEP 394 compliance.)

Code:

[eschwartz@arch ~]$ python -c 'print "Hello World!"'
  File "<string>", line 1
    print "Hello World!"
                       ^
SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'
[eschwartz@arch ~]$ ls -l $(which python)
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Jun 28 05:01 /usr/bin/python -> python3

Please apply the following patch immediately:

Code:

So when are you going to come down to the lounge for drinks and games.
We are in desperate need of new blood in especially this thread.
