Kindle Models: Which ones have glued-in batteries?

I'm curious about which models have glued-in batteries.

Thanks.

Most recently, the "old" basic Kindle range (the non-touchscreen ones). PWs (1, 2, 3) don't have glued-in batteries, and the Voyage is the easiest of all to disassemble.

Kindle Fire and Fire HD generation 1 and 2 also had glued in batteries.

That's good news for me if/when my Voyage needs a new battery.

Thanks, Harry.
