Hi Kiri,
You've got some hard quesions so I'll just give you what I know and maybe some of the International folks can chime in more specifically.
1. Cost shouldn't be any different outside the US if you use whispernet or your computer, and there are no roaming fees. The additional $2 is already built-in to the ebook price structure. From my understanding US customers also pay the extra $2 when downloading outside the US to cover higher wireless costs.
2. Your home county would be Ireland. And since Ireland is part of the EU you'll have to pay an additional VAT charge of about 15% on ebook purchases.
3. Auto delivery for newspapers should work anywhere you get wireless coverage, regardless of country.
Does anybody know how much more newspaper subscriptions cost abroad to cover wireless costs? I think it's like $5, but I'm not sure. Also, do newspapers and magazines get charged VAT in the EU?
4. US selection is about 360,000 and Ireland's is around 280,000, but more will be added to as time goes by. The base ebook selection has already increased for a lot of countries.
