Regarding the Fire -- I am correct in assuming we will be able to side load other (DRM-free .mobi) books and documents as with previous Kindle devices?

Decided to jump on board the band wagon. Got a Touch 3G SO for myself.

I am not so sure about replacing my 1 month old Kindle 3G. The new one is touch, right, but everything else, especially screen size, is similar. Yeah, 1 oz less, but ...
Now, trying to think with my brain and not my emotions. Because My iPad 2 does everything I need, including reading Magazines and PDFs with GoodReader. The Kindle Fire is smaller, which is actually very convenient but reduces display's area as well. |

I'm buying the $79.99 Kindle and am getting it tomorrow (gotta love cheap 1 day shipping). I'm so excited to get my first e-reader.
