I agree with Sirtel and wonder why you ever purchased a kindle.
None of my Kindles have ever had WiFi turned on after initial registration. Not because I give a damn about Amazon knowing what I read (anyone who wants to know that has only to come here), but because having WiFi turned on significantly shortens battery life. It’s a non-issue. WiFi doesn’t turn itself on and magically connect itself. Leave the device in aeroplane mode and stop worrying about it.
