Generally. The Kindle e-readers use a proprietary format that is different than everyone else, so you can't buy an e-book from Kobobooks, Sony Bookstore or most of the other sellers and put it directly on a Kindle; you'd need to strip the DRM and convert the format first (there are a few other sellers that can provide a compatible format for Kindles though).

For the tablet it sounds like they'll be relying on cloud storage, so you'd probably need to upload your own content onto an Amazon server to load it onto the Kindle tablet, but I'm not positive about that.
