Too much hassle? I just email the pdf to the Kindle account and it pops up on the next sync. You can't change the font size on a pdf - just alter the zoom - but apart from that it's straighforward.

Lee, a cool feature of Calibre is you can email imported files straight to your Kindle - no messing with USB cables.

Great piece of freeware IMO.
