Not sure if I’m going to keep the Kindle Touch as a backup for myself, but I finally got the Touch jailbroken today with KUAL on it. KUAL was a challenge, and I might post details of how to do it later, it involved finding a mirror site for ancient firmware updates.
But I’m loving these screen savers! The plan is to put two of the old Kindles (once I cover the logos, #BurningMan style) out in the #WeeFreeCommunityLibrary. The Paperwhite is definitely going out as it has a small crack.
My readme asks people to buy the books if they love them to support the writers (they could of course steal copies if they really wanted) and to charge the devices before returning (using an ancient microUSB cord). It’s the modern version of “be kind, rewind”.

My #WeeFreeCommunityLibrary talk is now up on YouTube! It talks about how I used #InternetInABox to create a little local library in my neighborhood. It's a quick little snack of a talk at only ~20 minutes long.
