Fair enough. I did consider jailbreaking my Kindle but I am afraid of bricking it.

Bricked it few times in the process of figuring out more stuff about it, but luckily mine has a UART pads and I was able to restore it every time. A bit more involved as it's 1.8V if I remember right, but if you're careful it should be easy, provided you have the time.

Also fair - bricking it was definitely one of my main concerns.

After going through this process though, I'd say as long as somebody has basic linux knowledge, chances of bricking are pretty low.
