I suspect I would be charged an extra fee for downloading an ebook using 3G "internationally" - as it would appear that I am a US resident using 3G in the UK.

No, I don't think you would be. The international surcharge only applies, as I understand it, for delivery to a country in which Amazon does not have a deal with a local telecoms operator, as they do with Vodafone in the UK. It used to be the case that all Amazon eBooks were $2 more expensive in the UK than the US for that reason, but that's no longer the case.
You can also use the 3G to access Wikipedia; that does work absolutely fine in the UK, as I'm sure you've discovered.
