Hey strongrad50,
For moving the files on to your phone just follow the advice that thenewbigmack gave. There are numerous ways, plugging your phone into the USB port of your computer and just transferring it probably being the easiest.
As for viewing it on the Kindle app, I don't think this is possible. I just got an Android phone myself and tried opening both the mobi and epub versions with no success. No success meaning that the app wouldn't even find them on my phone. Upon further googling it looks like Amazon has made it so that only Kindle files purchased through the Kindle store can be read on it. Clever bit of business skills right there.
Anyways, there are tons of other apps that you can download for free that will allow you to view these types of files. I am using a popular one called "FBReader" and both files came up fine for me. The epub looked flawless. The mobi was certainly readable but the page breaks didn't seem to be working all that well. But perhaps you can fix that in the settings. Hope this helps.
