Thanks for that rapidblue... so by using WiFi and avoiding the need to use 3G and the International Subscription Service there should be no $ 1.99 charge.
Out of curiosity I compared the UK and US Kindle prices for the last 5 paperbacks which I bought from Amazon UK last week and was surprised to discover that all titles were significantly more expensive with a US account than a UK account. Examples: Tripwire ($11.18 US and $7.40 UK), Agent Zigzag ($ 11.89 US and $ 6.57 UK) and Lacuna ($ 10.70 US & $ 6.67 UK). Since these prices include VAT European sales tax I am rather surprised.
