Non DRM Mobipocket format is already supported on the Kindle - just drag and drop.
Kindles can read a variety of non-proprietary, non-DRM'ed formats. They read TXT, HTML, JPEG, and non-DRM Mobi files directly.
The Kindle has a built in cell receiver so that you can wirelessly browse, preview and purchase books using one-click.
