It puts it into fastboot mode when it's bricked.

I'd be interested.

I might be interested in one, too.

 

[audiomixman]

I'd buy at that price point.

I'd buy at that price point.

I don't have my Fire yet and plan to root it before I get the update, but for that price I would definitely get one just for later insurance.

So this would need to be used with a male to male USB A cable if I'm understanding you correctly?

I'm curious...

Very kind of you to offer to do this for people.

On a related note, I am curious as to what this guy is doing over in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1405052

TL;DR is that he's opening the Kindle Fire and shorting out one of the pins on the circuitboard. Risky to be sure but what I am curious about is if this is doing the same thing as as a factory cable would? Thoughts?

Right, its the easiest and cheapest option. Just a female standard A (the flat one) to a micro male. Just plug it into any standard USB cable

Yeah, thats what is sounds like he is doing. All a factory cable does is supply 5V to the 5th normally unused pin and he is just doing that by shorting to that pin on the board.
