FYI, having spent many more hours chat and phone with Amazon, it appears the company line is that books now can only download by wi-fi/computer loading. When asked which of the newer kindles (e.g. Oasis 10th generation or Paperwhite 2018 which both have an LTE option still) would continue working their answer is that there are no kindles for sale which will download without wifi.

As a long- time kindle user, I am disheartened. One of the major selling and using points for kindles was that, no matter where in the world I was I could buy books and read them immediately. I understood that 3g was going away, but had newer kindles ready to travel with me. Now it looks like the end of the era.
