Graham,
The cost is nothing if you send it via email to your @free.kindle.com
address. This is different from whispernet (which uses 3g, correct?).
Perhaps you would need to turn off the 3g option? I don't know because
I have the Kindle without 3g.
I haven't tried it with graphics at all, so I can't say. Perhaps someone
has experimented?
