Well Amazon CS has responded... have to say I am surprised - it seems a bit odd in this digital age that you only have a lifetime ownership and your digital asset evaporates on your death.
"Thank you for contacting Amazon.co.uk with your Kindle query.
In the event that the Kindle owner passes away and the new owner registers the Kindle to their own account they will not have access to the previously purchased kindle books. They will have to purchase the books again from Amazon.co.uk.
Thank you for your interest in the Amazon Kindle."
