Calibre
Calibre can catalog e-books; convert e-books; view e-books; edit the metadata of e-books; download news articles from hundreds of websites or "custom sources" (i.e. feeds from websites that you must input manually) and convert them to e-books; and "talk" to various e-book readers to easily import/export e-books from/to the devices. You can use it to send a document to Kindle and many other ebook devices, like Sony PRS 300/500/505/
One thing Calibre won't do, however, is read DRM protected e-books. And, though Calibre does not explicitly support the iPad (yet), but it does support the ePub format, the e-book format of iPad. Calibre is cross platform, works on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.
Calibre v0.6.47 [09 Apr, 2010] can be downloaded at http://calibre-ebook.com/download
Do note its whopping size, its Windows version is around 28 MB.
