In the U.S., borrowing books from Overdrive via a Kindle is extremely easy. Just borrow the book from your library's Overdrive page, follow the link to Amazon and choose what device to send the book to. You never have to hook the Kindle up to the computer. And this works (as far as I know) on any Kindle that was ever made. I can actually use the Kindle to borrow and directly download the book (on the experimental browser) but it's pain to use the Kindle's browser, though it IS possible. (I can do the same with my Sony T2 to download ePubs. Also slow, but it does work.)
