First, with my Kindle 3 connected via USB to my PC, I click on the download tab on the Gutenberg page, then I choose the Kindle format. Firefox gives me the option of opening or saving the file. I choose the latter. A window pops up showing that the file has been downloaded. I click on the file icon in this window. Up pops Kindle for PC and the book is ready for reading, but from here I don't know how to copy the book into the documents folder.
1. find where the book is stored on your PC - mine are in MY documents/My kindle content.
2. connect kindle with USB cable - it will appear as an extra drive in my computer. I also get a pop up saying connected - what do I want to do - select explore files & folders.
3. once you have found the kindle in MY computer or have opened it via the pop up - find its documents folder & open it.
4. copy book from MY Kindle content to the Kindle documents folder.
5. eject Kindle by right clicking it in My computer window, then disconnect USB cable
