My Kindle just arrived....The only thing I've setup so far was setting up for network connectivity.

Another newbie with a Kindle
Yup, another one. Just got mine for Christmas, and am looking for freebie classics. I've also stumbled across the mass of "complete collections" of classic authors (including the one and only Jane Austen) for ridiculous prices like £0.89 and £1.44. Like wow, man!

Still trying to get download protocols right - I'm doing it via the USB cable, and I get some, but not others, which appear in my Kindle folder on my computer, but not on my actual Kindle. I've got the idea of different file types, including the Kindle-friendly MOBI and azw, and that PDFs can be dodgy - especially if the Tables of Contents don't work, so you have to leaf through the book page by page to get to where you want to be. Also, I'm trying to figure out why the stuff in the archive folder on my Kindle keeps disappearing and reappearing.

Never mind, it'll work itself out. Meanwhile, thanks for the great site, and looking forward to hours of exploring.
