Of course I've completely changed my broadband and wifi since I last used it, so it's not actually connected, yet. I'll try to get my library downloaded and archived over the weekend. And then I'll probably never use it again.
Further adventures in last-minute kindle keyboard reactivation:

I had some trouble getting connected to my wifi, but it seemed OK after a manual firmware update, and moving closer to the router. And then the battery drained overnight. I suspect it's because I tried to download hundreds of books rather than that the replacement battery is a scam, but you never know.

I've still got hundreds more books to download, and don't know if I'll get them all done in time. I wonder if my entire library will fit on the device?
