Hacking the Touchpads Kindle App!
So using this link I found on the precentral forums, I was able to replace the amazon book with a .mobi book and it works fine, however the name of the book is still listed as the one you changed it from. You can also change the cover art and make it obvious what book you are trying to read.

tl:dr
step 1: Download a random free book from amazon.
step 2: Use touchpad in usbmode to transfer the book, and rename it exactly as the real kindle book usb:/.palmkindle/[asin]
step 4: ????
step 3: profit
