You'd need a lot of software changes to support any change, even if replacement HW is compatible. A newer Kobo or Kindle with WiFi and a phone as a WiFi hotspot if you have no broadband is a simple 100% working solution.

The existing SIM may or may not work with Amazon's 4G suppliers and they could end the service or terminate your SIM anyway. The service only gives very limited Internet access here. Little was ever free (Amazon Shop & Wikipedia) and also expiring certs are an HTTPS issue.

I have a 3G only DXG, and though in Ireland there is no date at all for ending 3G, and 2G (GSM) may still work (Smart meters and burglar alarms use 2G and 3G), the DXG is essentially junk. The Wifi based KK3 is a little better as it will render KF8 ebooks. The 2.5.8 and DX, KK2 and DXG only do very basic KF7 ebooks.
