Its possible to do but you're restricted to web access only as the Amazon Whispernet network prevents access to any other network ports. Everything has to go via the web proxy servers that Amazon runs. You can't connect to anything directly.

Amazon will notice you doing something strange as your usage patterns will not be the same as a normal Kindle user. You'll be transferring significantly more than usual and downloading content like Flash and Java files which a normal Kindle will never do. If this happens then they're going to ban your Kindle and possibly your account at which point your "free" 3G connection will cost you $189. That doesn't sound like a very good deal to me :P
