An other question related to the first one

So the kindle is not registered and still with the factory firmware, 4.0_130.

I'd like to connect it to the wifi to test the Web browser and see if it can be of any use for me.

If i do that, any risk the FW update is forced to the device OR that some other update is downloaded to force me for a registration with Amazon?

I know it's an old device, but maybe someone remember something about this.

Please no need to debate about the usefulness of registring with amazon or not, it's just a personal decision.

Thanks
