This is good news, but I am curious about the Wifi requirement - is the jailbreak web-based? Is Wifi usable afterwards on Mesquito-jailbroken Kindles?
I know on my older jailbroken Kindles, the jailbreak is very fragile and they can no longer be connected to the internet, partly because of Amazon's agressive OTAs and partly because Amazon disables developer mode and hence the jailbreak every time my Kindle 4s touch the internet.
(PS. If anyone can suggest a way to prevent this and secure my jailbreaks, it would be much appreciated - I've tried 3 different OTA blockers and none work reliably)
I've tried renametoabin (the one mentioned by the Mesquite jailbreak Kindle Modding Wiki in the OP), BlockKindleOTA, ShutTheBackDoor, etc. all of which do more or less the same thing to attempt blocking OTA updates on the Kindle. None work to prevent the Kindle 4 from disabling the jailbreak as soon as it gets wifi access.
