Use the latest version of Calibre to convert your ebook file to a .mobi file. DO THIS EVEN IF IT'S ALREADY a .mobi file from some other source other than amazon (ie Baen. You shouldn't have to if it's already an amazon .mobi). Alternatively, I believe the Count Pages plugin will also insert the required info.

Then, simply use calibre to load the file to your kindle, or android/iOS/blackberry device. For my android phone, I use a third party app that accesses my calibre library over the web, but you can do it directly with your mobile browser. Ensure that both (or all) devices are using the same file, of course.
