Actually, if they sell the device with the promise of providing space to store your documents, that is an implied contract. If that's a feature of their ecosystem -- one that caused you to chose Kindle over Kobo (for example) -- and then they take that feature away, it is (at the very least) a shoddy business practice. There was a time when this sort of feature was "grandfathered in," because it was considered unfair to remove a promised feature after the fact.
