You can use fuse-based mtp implementation; it will allow you to mount
your device into filesystem and use whatever tools you like. E.g.
simple-mtpfs works (you can rebuilt srpm from Fedora or get it straight
from source https://github.com/phatina/simple-mtpfs). Install
libmpt-examples (for mpt-detect) and simple-mtpfs and do something like

sudo mtp-detect
sudo simple-mtpfs -o allow_other,direct_io /home/user/Kindle

after you're done, unmount with "fusermount -u /home/user/Kindle"

If you are going to read/write huge files like movies, make sure you got
plenty of space in /tmp or redefine TMPDIR, otherwise the operation will
fail (MPT doesn't operate on whole files so it needs space to store
chunks which will be assembled to real files).
