Go to Project Gutenberg, and select the Kindle-compatible version of the book you're interested in. Then save it to your computer. Connect the Kindle to your computer using the USB cable you received together with the device. The Kindle will now act like any flash storage device, so open My Computer and then double-click on the Kindle drive. You'll see a set of folders, including one called Documents. Copy the book from your computer and paste it into the Documents folder in your Kindle. Unplug the Kindle from your computer or, if you want to keep charging the battery, eject it (right-click on the Kindle drive in My Computer) and the new book will be on your Home list.
The books for the Kindle can cost anything from FREE to $9.99. The $9.99 books are usually for a new release book which, if you purchased in regular book form, would probably be hardback. Almost always about 50% cheaper than the retail price. Unfortunately, with new books it's not always that simple if you're from outside the US -- the paperback is often cheaper than the international Kindle version (but that doesn't include postage). There are a lot of free ebooks out there - they usually change week to week. If you download them while they're free, you can build up quite a library on your Kindle or Nook without paying a dime.
There are basically three ways to mark a book as read on the Kindle: 1. Use the "dots" indicator under the book title on the Kindle main screen. 2. Move to Archive section, which effectively deletes all but the title from the Kindle. Of course you should ensure a back-up is available for future re-download if necessary. 3. Create a new collection called "Books that have been read" and assing books that you have read to that collection. Further details below.
