Great piece of freeware IMO.
Actually I had a load of pdf books that I wanted to read on my Kindle, was worried that Calibre would be too complicated, but honestly it was SO easy to convert them and then transfer them onto the Kindle. If I can do it anyone can.

btw first post on the Kindle thread. Got mine in October and absolutely LOVE it. Yes, I like 'real' books, but I have space issues, and I travel and I have RSI issues as well which are irritated by holding a paperback book open while reading in bed. The Kindle solves all of these problems. And I've picked up over 100 free books (contemporary ones too) from the Kindle store so I've got reading for the next few years sorted LOL
