My dear Sherlock,
not to brag, but I am the same person who wrote
"I have around 50 books and a dozen of comic books on my e-reader.
It works perfectly without any connection whatsoever.
I'm not sure that being able to download a book while sitting on top of Mountain Everest it's a such an important feature"
The point being: you can preload years worth of reading material on e-books, a connection is not needed.
It was in response to a post that said
"The older kindles with 2G/3G "Whispersync" functionality had another major drawcard of working just about anywhere, even if you didn't have wifi coverage or a phone with data services"

It wasn't about mount Everest.
