Disabling Download and Transfer caused a backlash too. Did Amazon care? Nope.
Indeed, they could ditch all Kindle HW or just PW1 and older.

But curiously the DXG still works to get ebooks from Amazon (though only in mobi/KF7 rather than azw3/KF8 or KFX) because I still have 2G (GSM-EDGE) here, although the 3G is gone. Worked last week.

So they also simply might not bother. It's work to cut stuff off.
