Where can those PDFs come from? Can I just send it files from my computer's hard drive and then read them on the Kindle, like an iPod for PDF?

  It has a USB 2.0 port.

  You get a kindle email address. You email PDFs to it and they automagically appear on your device. Although this costs $0.10 a pdf. You can also plug it in and it opens as a flash drive, then you just drag and drop. (In the case of the Kindle 2 you also have to convert to the right format, DX sounds like it will be easier)

    Not anymore. http://pragdave.blogs.pragprog.com/pragdave/2009/05/amazon-tighten-their-grip-on-kindle-distribution-.html http://pragdave.blogs.pragprog.com/pragdave/2009/05/amazon-t... To summarize: The price of e-mailing your Kindle is now 15c/MB, rounded up.

      Much less attractive.

        The USB drag-and-drop still works, right? That's not quite as trivial, but still not particularly difficult.

          the kindle 2 supports downloading files that you navigate to via the kindle's web browser. i would imagine the new one still lets you do this.
