It can be registered on Amazon's website, but without also registering via Whispernet you can get into the settings to name it & stuff, from what I've read. I haven't seen where anyone had their Kindle simply not work without Whispernet. There are places in the US with no Whispernet coverage.

Do you have an American credit card to buy Amazon books?

They can be bought with Gift Certs, no CC needed. Amazon of course isn't the only source of content out there.
