When I bought it, I had to register as a new customer, and while doing that I just had to tell them that I was out of the UK, and they presented me with a different address form (that would let me enter in an address in the US style). Just remember enter state where it says county. After I did that, I installed adobe editions, hit the download link, it listed a file other than the ebook, which I told my browser to open up in Adobe Digital Editions, rather than saving, and ADE did the rest. Not quite as simple as the native stores for the Kindle and the Sony readers, but still very simple.

As far as things being cheaper here, not really anymore. Some things are, but not all anymore. I recently had a cost compare session with a friend in the UK when I was talking about how I couldn't afford to get an iPhone because of the monthly fee, and for instance our cell plans are way more expensive, plus we have to pay for all incoming calls and messages. Internet service is another thing. I have a 1.5mbit connection that I pay $40 a month for, where as friends in London are paying in the neighborhood of 8-10 gbp for an 8mbit connection.
