Is it common for free pre-orders to remain free once they are available or do they normally convert to having a fee associated with them?

Free books pre-order or released the price can change at any moment. Specially if it's a publisher's error. You have to order to lock in the price at the moment it says $0 or you can miss out. I can't tell you how many times I gotten up to find the book went back to regular price when it was free that morning.
What you can do is install Kindle4PC and send it to there then once it's released you can go to your Manage Kindle page and download it to your PC then add it to your Kindle via USB. I send all my books to Kindle4PC first to look at them then I can add them to my Kindle later if I want to actually read them.
