It's even possible to download from Gutenberg on an Android phone or Tablet and then using a USB2Go (OTG) to USB host adaptor (dumb $3 plug or cable) connect almost any ereader as external storage and copy over the ebook.
You might need to add a 3rd party File manager on some phones / tablets. Also then use a USB HDD to backup the phone/tablet. You might need a Y cable so the HDD isn't powered from the phone. Or use a powered USB Hub. I've used a hub to connect mouse, keyboard, ereader and USB HDD on an old Sony Ericsson phone, one of the last with that branding

You can install Calibre on x86 or x86-64 tablets running Windows or Linux. I can't imagine using an ereader without Calibre nor buying ebooks without removing DRM and doing backups, otherwise you are practically renting.
