Hack your Kindle 2 and Kindle 3

In case you haven’t notice, there is a hack for everything. I personally have done it on my Kindle 2, but have not done it for Kindle 3 Keyboard.

Feel free to try it, and there is a big advantage to hack your Kindle. It all depends on what you need it for. I use it to change font on my Kindle 2, as well as my Screen Saver. I only do it for fun, and it’s fun, just like tearing down my own Kindle 2 and 3 for fun and cut the sim card to fit in to my iPad 2 and iPad 3.

However, even if Android Market were to be available, I would still install the alternatives. Below are the top lists that I frequently use and liked over the other ones. Continue reading
