It's a pretty trivial fix to get kindlepid.py to recognize a K2i serial number:

For anyone unfamiliar with diff, use a text editor to add the two lines marked with a + (don't include the +). It is best to copy and paste from existing lines, because spacing is significant in Python. Note that adding the Kindle DX was also a patch, so you may not have the "B004" lines. These are only needed if you have a Kindle DX.

You can also use the patch utility to apply the change; that was the original intent here. I'm assuming a Unix-type operating system (I use Linux), but if you have Windows you can make it Unix-y (and get the patch utility) with Cygwin.
