Done it - and bought a book from a US site (I'm based in New Zealand). The book was previously geo restricted and I couldn't buy it with my NZ address. On checkout it said that I had to use a US credit card but since I don't have a US credit card I used google checkout instead and it worked, with no reference to a US credit card - a loophole in their system maybe? But I'm really pleased, Amazon.co.uk, WH Smiths etc here I come.

Thanks poppaea!
