I tried to do the same thing on my Dads new T2 and ran into a problem the region choices list off a dozen or so countries and the US is not one of them  Has anyone downunder found a way round this

I ran into the same problem here. It's really annoying - it'll let me set up the UK Store, but not the US one. Maybe it's hard-wired into the firmware -- how else would the reader know? I will try to buy books through the browser of the T1 (a work-around if it works), but maybe someone is willing to try flashing a US BIOS onto an international model?
