Ficbot,
Just to add to the good advice you've already received ... You won't have any trouble at all.
I bought my Kindle before they were available outside the US, so I purchased via a third-party. The Kindle arrived at their address pre-registered to themselves. They had to de-register it (they did that via the Manage Your Kindle page on the Amazon site, but could also have done it on the Kindle itself). I was then able to register it in my name.
In your case, you would keep the Kindle registered to yourself while you step-dad was evaluating it. You could then either send it back or have it registered to him.
By the way, I think a Kindle would make an excellent retirement present. I hope he enjoys using it as much as I do mine.
