I think, from their point of view, blacklisting the device (thus rendering unusable on their system) is their main concern. I don't think they really care if you side-load books to it and use it with limited functionality. If that was a big concern to them, I think when I offered to send the blacklisted Kindle Keyboard back to them, they would have taken me up on that offer. Instead they told me to take it back to the pawn shop, whom they knew would probably resell it to someone else. You'll find blacklisted Kindles for sale on eBay all the time. If Amazon really cared they could demand eBay take these Kindles down and not allow their sale.
