.mobi is essentially the kindles main format. The .amz (the format when you download somthing from amazon) format is nearly identical to the .mobi format, except it (.amz) is DRM protected. So, yes, .mobi files will work on your kindle. I would recommend Mobireader and Creator to organize and transfer your books. (the .amz files are only readable on your kindle, and will not work in mobireader, unless you want to rewrite the code, which is fairly easy.)
