I guess older models still let you copy by USB/Sideload, but no books bought from Amazon unless DRM free and no connecting to Amazon.
No 3G at all.
Do some later models get blocked from WiFi or even bricked?
Think of a blacklisted Kindle as using an unregistered Kindle. I would think the WiFi would work. I've never read about a blacklisted Kindle being bricked. If Amazon did that, I think holy hell would break out like it did over 1984.

I get that most Kindles sold on eBay may be OK, but there are those that are blacklisted and it's not worth the risk.
