3. If using the latest version of Mobipocket software you can manually copy the mobi files created by the software to your Kindle using windows explorer.

4. If you don't want to do step 3, then get version 6.0 of Mobipocket software, which does see the Kindle as a mobipocket device and supports syncing to it directly.

My other questions is as follows. Since I live in Canada and cant use the wireless feature of the kindle to buy books. Can I buy a book online with Amazon.ca and then transfer it to the kindle using the usb cable?
