Jailbreaking a PW (FW: 5.6.1.1)

Hey guys!

I'm trying to jailbreak my old PW Kindle (the serial starts B024), it's got Wifi only and was bought in the UK. I want to jailbreak it so I can change the Collections Manager as Amazon's version totally sucks.

The Firmware is 5.6.1.1 but I can't find any reference to this early PW, I can only find stuff for the later versions.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance

Awesome!!

Thanks, that's awesome, dude!

A little tip for anyone stumbling on this thread, as I found out to my frustration - use a good quality USB cable, and the USB ports on the back of the computer. Damn thing copied the update but there was some corruption or something going on. Used a better USB and the back motherboard ports, and it's sweet as
