Sorry, I meant a link to show local upload requires a jailbreak. I know Amazon -> kindle usb loading got nixed, but I’ve not seen anything that local uploading via calibre or just directly dropping a book onto the kindle via usb requires a jailbreak.
Ah, I see. It seems they just disabled their “official” way to transfer via USB. So, local transfers shouldn’t be affected I guess. However this means, if one don’t have older Kindles they won’t get “Download” option from Amazon anymore apparently. They have to directly download it to Kindle and cannot get it out from the device.
Have you got a link for local uploading requiring a jailbreak?
Don’t have a link for the firmware though quoting from the guide I used:
Don’t know if it still works though.
