I just tried it with my kindle 3 Wi-Fi, FWIW I just discovered one way in which it's not better than my kindle 2, entering IP addresses. Anyway back to your question, the Caliber content server shows up fine, when I click on a link for something in .mobi format the browser offers to download it to the kindle so it will be available for later viewing. I have not tried it with an non-kindle native file yet.

Hope this helps you out.
