Anyway to reset pin on K4?
I have a lady who bought a K4 Silver from a yard sale. It has the passcode enabled. Is there anyway to disable it? She was traveling home so the lady who she brought it from is not local.

Type the string "resetmykindle" (with no spaces) into the passcode field. That will do a factory reset of the device.
