Yea, there has been lots of this sort of crap going around. Last week Amazon decided to brick perfectly good older model Kindle readers for no real reason at all. They won't be able to connect to Amazon anymore, so if you have one, you need to jailbreak it. I have at least two of the affected models, a first gen Kindle Fire and a Kindle 4, and I am NOT happy.
When most people just use their phone as an ereader. That was the stupidest action they could've taken. No one is going to want their brand of ereaders. And, there are so many better brands of ereaders out there.
