Crikey, seems to be a fair few of us Aussies here.
roofie, just to point something out which you may come across in your further reading of the Kindle is the list of supported formats is according to the Amazon website;

Content Formats Supported: Kindle (AZW), TXT, Audible (Audible Enhanced (AA, AAX)), MP3, unprotected MOBI, PRC natively; PDF, HTML, DOC, JPEG, GIF, PNG, BMP through conversion.

So it looks like PDFs are not supported natively, they need to be converted through Amazon's conversion service (or possibly through software such as Calibre - if someone can confirm/deny this is possible would be great).

Oh...and welcome.
