As general rule, without going to exotic measures, iOS can only connect to itunes, which is not all that different from getting something via wifi in terms of ease of sideloading.

But you do agree that taking away the USB connection is more trouble than it's worth?
Does lack of a USB port mean there is no way to upload books from your laptop to the Kindle? Or can you email them? I do that to get eBooks from my laptop to my iPad.
