With the Kindle (Keyboard or 3) that I have and the previous model (Kindle 2), all you do to sideload is plug it to your PC via USB and your PC's OS identifies the Kindle as an external drive and then you can drag files to the documents folder of the Kindle and if the files are a compatible format (like MOBI) they show up in the book list and are readable.

Can it also be done this same way with a Kindle Fire?
Yes. Put the ebooks in Documents or Books via USB and the Kindle Reader will see them. They might show up under docs, but they will be in the catologue.
