I know I can still download to the Kindle itself and retrieve the ebook that way. But what if the battery dies, since it's an old Kindle. If I plug an old Kindle with a dead battery into a/c, will it work? Or will I need to replace the battery?
Kindles work when plugged in even if the battery can't hold a charge.

But really, if things get that bad, just stop buying from Amazon!

(All your previously bought books are already de-DRMed, aren't they?)
