There have been some reports of people having their Kindles automatically upgraded to 3.1 even though as of this minute, it is still marked as an Early Preview release on the Amazon site. Amazon even say "We will update this page when we complete the Early Preview and begin to automatically deliver the update." so its not supposed to be automatic yet.

I assume that this means 3.1 has gone into full release status after a very short period of time in Early Preview and the web people at Amazon haven't managed to update their site yet.

If 3.1 has been flagged for automatic upgrade then the only way to currently avoid it is to turn off wireless and leave it off.
