I'm sure the firmware on it will be jailbreakable but will I be able to set it up without WiFi (so no firmware update) to initially jailbreak it or will it require WiFi and hence a firmware update?
it should be possible to skip connecting to wifi. There might be a "skip" link to tap, or tapping outside the dialog box might work.

If the dialog is unskippable, don't connect to wifi until barely in range. then throughput will be so low that there won't be time for anything bad to happen. Then get into airplane mode ASAP!
