How do make sure, that only WIFI connection will be used for sending ebooks to your Kindle?
With the email address username@free.kindle.com you can make sure that the ebook will only be sent using WIFI. The email address free.kindle.com will not send ebooks over Kindle whisper net. This way, you make sure to get the ebooks being delivered for free to your Kindle device.
With the email address @kindle.com (without "free") both Amazon Whispernet and WIFI will be used.

That's actually incorrect. I have a K2 and it can utilize the @free.kindle.com address. Since there's no wifi, the converted documents are not delivered directly via wifi, however, you do receive an email with a link to the file that you can download to your computer and then transfer via USB. I do it all the time to avoid that Whispernet charge.
