Getting a Kindle

I don't own any e-reader currently. But I did the social living Amazon card deal, and will be getting an amazon gift card on Valentine's Day as well. I believe that with the two and a little of my own money I will be able to get the K3 3g/wifi.

Since I don't own an e-reader I may ask some stupid questions or be under some mistaken information I've gathered while trying to read about devices/issues/ebook management etc.

I have bought several of the free books from Amazon to use with my Android phone which has the Kindle app. From reading some of the threads here I believe that by using whisper sync and possibly the usb on my computer accessing the purchases from my amazon account I'll be able to transfer all those books (about 25) over to the Kindle without any issue, right?

Also I had a question about downloads from Project Gutenberg... I've seen on several books I would like to get that they have file downloads for kindle. Do I have to do anything special to load those up, and synch them in with my Android Kindle app as well?

I just want to make sure that I know what I'm doing as much as possible before I get the Kindle. I'm really excited about it and would love to hit the ground running.

Thanks for any help on this that anybody could provide as well as any other useful tips that folks have.
