By the way, something else that surprised us with our first sales after being able to deal direct with US-based ebook stores in October 2010 was -- in spite of their (I think) great hardware but rotten library software -- second biggest sales figures came from Sony -- not B&N, Apple or Kobo as we'd guessed. Sales direct from our own wee site also, unexpectedly, peaked, even though Mobi, ePub and PDF editions (DRM-free and with no geo-restrictions on sale) had been available there long before our additional US registration allowed us to deal with the stores direct.
