Sending documents wirelessly to Kindle for free
Today I accidentally discovered the way to send documents into Kindle for free. It’s pretty easy.
- Optionally set your charge limit in your Amazon account to 0.
- Send your documents to <your selected name>@kindle.com (if your charge limit is 0) or <your selected name>@free.kindle.com.
- Optionally you’ll get notice in your Kindle (as well via email) that the limit was exceeded, delete it.
- Connect to WiFi network (if you’re not already) and in a couple of seconds your documents will be downloaded through this connection.
I think is probably described somewhere, but who has time to read manuals, isn’t it?

Adding a little more info: write “convert” in the mail Subject, and your Kindle gets the ebook in it’s native format. The converting service is surprisingly good – it converts even PDFs correctly, including paragraphs (well, mostly) and images… Far better than Calibre for example.
