Well, yes, there is the automated conversion, but a kindle that has a Kindle e-mail address with Amazon pretty much has to be registered, right? And i thought the question was what would work with an unregistered Kindle?

FWIW, Stanza will convert .doc and .html files to .mobi, and you can then sideload them onto the Kindle. If Stanza won't do this anymore (I got my copy last year, before they got bought out) then I expect Calibre will.
