Dug up my old ebook reader from 2012. Discovered that it has a WiFi
chip?!

Useless, though. It can't access any sites, because its SSL library is
too old and doesn't support the new ciphers. Meh.

I can still transfer files to it via USB and the display still works,
even though it has shown the exakt same image for a couple of years.
Funny.
