[Geekmaster] wrote in to tell us about the new hack for the Amazon Kindle. It’s a jailbreak. The Universal jailbreak for almost every eInk Kindle eReader eout Ethere.

This jailbreak is a pure jailbreak software for the Kindle Paperwhite 2, the Kindle Paperwhite 3, Kindle Touch, Kindle Voyage, Kindle and Oasis. If you’re keeping track, that’s any 6th, 7th, or 8th generation device, running any firmware version. Already the jailbreak Has Been tested by over one thousand people, after the cloud served up half a Terabyte of jailbreak image downloads. That’s popular extraordinarily for a device que has not seen much action of late

Several years ago, [Geekmaster] made a name for himself -. And other developers at over the MobileRead forums – for jailbreaking the Kindle Paperwhite . This jailbreak was, and is extremely simple; just upload the file to the root directory, restart, and the Kindle is jailbroken. The latest development extends this to Nearly all Kindle models, while still being easy to deploy the the the original hack from four years ago.

If you’re looking for something to the with a neat jailbroken device with an eInk screen, They make a great serial console, thermostat, and wallpaper.
