On "first connect" is even more difficult to avoid.
In fact, two hours of work by twobob and myself failed to find a way to avoid it.
Which raises an interesting question:
The device informs a person that they agree to the Amazon terms of service if they register the device or access the kindle's account.
Which seems impossible to avoid - it registers itself.
I guess you would have to keep it in airplane mode - JB it - mess with the firmware to defeat the "auto-registration" and then first use its wireless.
Amazon is becoming very difficult to "live with".
