"necessary (or additional)" - as contrasted to what?
In contrast to that available over the console serial port: NO
Directly allowing additional access: NO
Allowing after market MR packages that do give such "necessary (or additional)" access: YES
(I.E: Indirectly, yes - example: install the USBnetworking package).

All great questions here. I didn't make myself very clear. The necessary parts of the filesystem meaning areas on the Kindle where books and network information may be stored, as well as library loaned books may have been stored and deleted (or rather marked for deletion).
Does the USBnetworking package offer any particular forensic value to the Kindle?

That is: "research" once meant doing the discovery work yourself, not just asking someone for the answers.

I will glady share credit to anyone! I'm an honest student, not presenting anything received by others as my own. I'm not asking anyone here to write this paper for me, I'm more than happy to do it on my own. But with such a new device and not a lot current/past research (at least that I can find) I need a little bit of help in the right direction.
So far, I've imaged my Kindle with FTK Imager and dug through it with Forensic Tool Kit 4.2. There's a lot of interesting information contained in that image, but I can't find any information relating to remembered WiFi networks, or books that I've had on it in the past. A lot of it seems encrypted (perhaps DRM?)
Again, I didn't explain myself very clearly. I don't need word for word answers here that many other students might just copy-paste into their BS paper. I'm looking for serious help on a forensic analysis of the Kindle PaperWhite.
