I'm going to buy a kindle paperback (I've never had one), and I'm sure I'm not going to buy any books for it. What mods/steps/other stuff do you guys suggest to set it up?

Is there anything that can convert the Amazon kindle files to EPUB? Seems like a big barrier to using Calibre if I can't get my already bought books.

Calibre can do the conversion already. You just need to remove the DRM. And there is a Calibre plugin to do that too.

That did the trick. Thanks for the link!

Calibre Books is your best friend here. It can convert without much trouble between epub, pdf and mobi.
