If this new Kindle is for you, on your Amazon account, the simplest solution is to set up Family Library sharing. You will both be able to access books bought on the other account from your own Kindles.
If it's a replacement for your wife's Kindle, just register it to her account. No need to manually move files around.
If you want to remove the DRM you'll need to get detailed DRM removal help elsewhere.

Oh, I had the distinct impression that this wasn't an issue for Kindle books and that the transfer was quite straightforward. I new DRM was an issue for some other books but not for a Kindle to Kindle transfer.
The complication is that because of Amazon's recent change to UK credit cards I am about to close my Amazon account and had hoped to use the new Paper white in a standalone mode!
