Amazon are killing off their old Kindles - notably the ones which still let you remove DRM from their ebooks.
I suspect that it is also because they can't connect to modern TLS servers.
A shame, although I was only using it for stripping DRM.
There are a few jailbreaks but the hardware and software is ancient, so I might have to repurpose mine as yet another semi-passive display.

@Edent Ugh. I hate that our governments let Amazon and others make something obsolescent when it's otherwise fine. I will see if anyone wants my Kindle 3 to jailbreak cos I can't cope with the flashing page turn mode and had lost it when I was last able to sell it on.

I will look at Kobo and stripping DRM if I can read the damned epubs in FBReader as I find the Kobo Reader doesn't give me the colour combos and visual layouts I usually need.
