Any real benefits of jailbreaking a Kindle? I mean I know the "You free yourself from amazon!" elevator pitch, but what exactly does that mean?
I can already upload pretty much anything I want to it with Calibre. Can I add support for other ebook formats? Cooler utilities on my Scribe? Alternative ebook stores (yes I know where I am)? A user interface that isn't absolute garbage?
How did you set the custom screensavers?
I ran the jailbreak on my Kindle PW6 following the instructions linked here but everything I'm finding when searching how to set custom screensavers is extremely out of date.
Interesting choice of screensavers.
