There's a free Kindle.com email address that can be used, so the fees aren't a problem. However, as long as you don't try to transmit it via Whispernet's 3G-only network, you won't be charged anything. Be sure to keep it connected to a Wi-Fi network when transferring (if doing it wirelessly).

An Amazon.com Customer service agent can help you with registration of your Kindle, and the settings of your Kindle.com email address.
