Slightly off-topic. I have a bunch of DRM free ePub ebooks in Calibre and I'm assuming the easiest way to get them on the Kindle is to use the Send to Kindle web page. Would it be better to convert them to MOBI in Calibre or let Amazon handle it?

Plug the Kindle into a computer using a USB cable and copy them over.

Don't convert them, I'd just do what you've suggested and use the send to kindle page. That way they end up in your account and if you use multiple devices, everything will sync.

Loving the Kindle so far. The dictionary feature is especially handy.

Yeah the Kobo has that... When I come across some obscure word, tap it and it gives you the meaning. I swear some authors just use these words to pee people off :p
 
I was adamant I didn't need to upgrade from an OG Kindle with the keyboard, then eventually caved for a Paperwhite on a trade in offer they kept pestering me with. Thought I would miss the page buttons at first but soon got used to it. Backlight does make all the difference.
