Which means I can't use PubIt to upload to B&N, since I'm in the UK.

And both B&N and Amazon allow the author to not use DRM. In BOTH cases, you don't realize they've done this until after the purchase and Strippin' Time.
As someone else said, you can download to your computer direct from the Amazon website.

Amazon do obliquely tell you if a book has DRM. If the product details include "Simultaneous Device Usage: Unlimited", it doesn't have DRM. Not obvious, but it's there. I've no idea whether or not B&N has some similar oblique reference to DRM.
