Sure it's not impossible. In theory, you can buy a book anywhere, stripp the DRM off, then you convert it with the command line tool KindleGen, then you can delete the Mobi part out of the AZW3 file with a Hex Editor, and then you can copy & paste this to your Kindle. No problem. But be careful, you only have 1 GB.

But this is a bit annoying for some people. I really don't understand why, but so it is. And since a good Reader from Sony doesn't need all this, since you can simply pug as many different Micro SD cards as you like into it, smart people simply buy a Sony.
