You will only be able to get (for now) US books, and maybe less if there is region lockout, you will have to pay in US dollars even if it's not your local money, so you will be charged for money conversion, etc.

In the future, we plan to introduce a UK-centric Kindle experience, enabling you to purchase Kindle and Kindle books in sterling from our Amazon.co.uk site.
so hopefully this is just a "stopgap" measure.
