My folks have one of these: it bitches at you for internet. Also the device is generally designed with internet in mind, so certain local-only functions don’t work properly without internet.

Rather barefaced to squeeze in a sales pitch to an End-of-life notice. "Let us slap you again the future!" Seems like the right time to switch to an offering that can't be so easily trashed.
