Sometimes, jo, simple solutions are all that are required. I keep WiFi turned off on all my reading devices, and sideload all my content.

Certainly. Hopefully other people will be along with alternative solutions to give the OP a choice. What would be your suggestion?

- Any special problems? I don't want to have to factory reset and reinstall everything after every update.
- Does the other reader (i86, M96, ...) have the same problem with "calling home" functionality?

Send the files to a Cloud service such as Dropbox, and then open them from Dropbox on the reader.

This - plus frequent jaggies.

Is the Sony DPT-S1 Digital Paper any better?

Or as you get the files via email in the first place, you could use an email programme like K9 to access your mail from the e-reader and open the attachments directly from there.

A good point!

The only advantage I would suggest lies with using a Cloud service like Dropbox is that it then acts as backup storage for your files, if they have long-term value.

Yes, for cross-device syncing a combination of both methods may be the most effective. For syncing, FolderSync may be a useful app to look into as it allows you to use a range of cloud services, but also ssh/sftp.
