I just did this the other day too. Like other commentors have stated: it doesn't fully de-Amazon your kindle unfortunately. Still great, but one thing that bugged me for example was that even after jailbreaking I couldn't set custom screensavers without paying the $20 to turn off "special offers" mode.
