If I send a book/"personal content" to my @kindle.com or @free.kindle.com address, I get sync between devices, but I don't see my highlights and annotations on kindle.amazon.com (unless something changed recently).
And I don't see my personal content in the OS X Kindle.app.
Sideloading via "Send to Kindle.app", USB or similar doesn't provide any cloud sync (at least I haven't gotten any sideloaded content to sync between devices without using the email method).
Online annotations and highlights is only available for Amazon purchased content.
(I think you can fetch annotations manually from Kindle devices over USB using a Perl script or something.)
I think this is frustrating, and I would be willing to pay for cloud sync for all my ebooks across all my devices and my laptop/the web. Sadly, so far I haven't found anyone working better than Amazon ...
(There was some fuzz about personal content annotations/highlights/bookmarks not syncing with Kindle Fire, but I don't know if that still applies.)
