You have lost track of the point, I believe.

Like I said, regardless of your current connectivity status (but duh dependent on your previous connectivity status) the Kindle knows what books you own.
The fact that it doesn't know with completion until it connects, somehow doesn't bother me, considering that it cannot send the info until it connects either...

I stand by my claim. The Kindle has no need to send extraneous detail on books it doesn't track (and we have no reaon to think they collect it) since the device already knows which books you own in the cloud anyway.
