That's very good to know, thanks!

It's been several years, but I vaguely remember that when I was shopping for a reader the Kobo seemed to be the only one whose manual stated explicitly that you could disable the wireless and do everything you need via a wired connection. I think there were even some brands that could be connected ONLY via WiFi.

Maybe my shopping wasn't extensive enough!

For instructions, see Memory Upgrade Mod Guide. It is for the Glo, but the basic steps and tools needed are the same.
