Same here from Germany. I used basically the same setup as Geert and got my recent app orders canceled after a few hours, too.

I bought ezPDF on April 25 without any problems but was not successfull with Quickoffice on April 30. My orders for free apps went through without any problems, however. I also ordered two books in the meantime from my PC without any problems. My account and credit card infos should be ok.

I have no idea how they figure out that I'm not in the US when it comes to the Nook apps because my fake IP setup worked flawlessly so far. I will be in the US in about four weeks and I will try to buy the apps then. Let's see what happens there.

Any ideas how to solve this problem from other folks outside the US? Was somebody able to download paid Nook apps during the last few days from outside the US? If so, how did you do it? To make it clear: books and magazines are not an issue, it's just the apps.

Thanks for your help.
