I think the system is pretty liberal about how they implement book returns. Suppose you own two Kindles with wireless capability. You send book 1 to Kindle A, and the other 19 to Kindle B. Then, Kindle A dies or you place it into long term airplane mode. You tell your web browser that you want to return all copies of book 1. They automatically remove it from your loan list, and you are able to borrow book 21. How long will Amazon allow you to keep Kindle A off the grid? A second interesting question involves titles are rolled off their time on KU. I've seen a list of titles leaving or about to leave KU. We need to find one that is soon to leave, and figure out how long Amazon will allow it to stay in your reader. I know that Overdrive ebooks that you return early do not stay on a Kindle Fire for a full week (say, your original borrowing period), as they disappear the moment you re-enable wireless.
