Well, I guess we don't have sarcasm smilies available.

I do agree with your other point, the KT2 is indeed low cost.

The KT2 prefix is a bit of a misnomer -
Internally, it is the second generation K4 (+ ir touchscreen - buttons + newer SoC).

So following our general naming pattern, it would have been the K42 -
Which certainly would have been more confusing than helpful.
(Hmm... I never posted a KT2 and K4 internals picture, side-by-side, but I could if anyone is interested.)

Same here, I received one of these for a Christmas gift. While the screen is a higher resolution than my K3W the complete lack of audio support lead me to look for a good used K3W on eBay. I finally obtained one a few weeks ago for under $30 including shipping after watching about a month. I have customized it, with some issues that may be due to the newer firmware, and now use the K3W as my primary with the KT2 as a backup reader.

I have 7th generation kindle e reader, is there an unofficial way to brighten the screen? With root, what kind of apps are useful for a device with no color and audio.

Have patience! As I noted, it took about a month for me to win a bid on one that was priced reasonably.

My approach for this was to save a search and check it periodically. When a good unit properly priced was available I would wait until a minute or less to the end of auction to place my bid. Most units were out of my price range well before it got close to the end, I missed on a few and finally won one.

It might be easier (and cheaper) to just replace the boyfriend rather than the Kindle.

Nuuuu T.T luv him <3 :P

ETA: @dhdurgee thanks for the tips! I'm seriously thinking to sending back the K2T (after 5 days of use) because.. I really hate the touchscreen >.< Maybe I'll try this: http://www.amazon.it/gp/product/B00Q...ls?ie=UTF8&me=

what is the difference between "root" and "jailbreak" ?

I would like to install jailbreak. but not the difference between the two. what you recommend?

to install jailbreak must disarm the kindle! ... Right? and if so! ... You know if there is a guide? . excuse my English, I speak Spanish and Italian! ... But not English (Google translate)

thanks
