no, this is not necessary. your kindles will be named kindle1, kindle 2, and kindle 3. go to your "manage my kindle" page at amazon. from there check all the books that you want to have sent to kindles 2 and 3 (they automatically go to kindle 1), tick them and they will be sent via whispernet and the next time those kindles are turned on they will be received

you can share one book one time only with one person. it kind of sucks but that is how they have it right now. the only other device that does sharing at the moment, the nook if the same way. there is a way to get around this and that is to have multiple kindles registered to one account. all those kindles have access to all of the material. of course that means that those kindles can order books from your account, so you need to make sure they would be trustworthy people
