I've got an amazon.com account associated with my Australian postal address and Australian credit card, and got my Kindle 3 Wifi shipped to Australia (and I'm using an Australian IP of course).

So my country was set to Australia, and a bunch of books were unavailable.

In "Manage your Kindle" on the web site, you can set your country if you're moving. I put in a US address (for an office of my employer), and it accepted it, and I just bought a book that was previously unavailable, paid for with my Australian credit card.

What am I missing? I haven't hacked the kindle.
