iStore Options

[Dolby]

I really enjoy buying with my SA credit card and currently have the Kenya store, which is pretty cool.

Just wondering if that's the *best* iStore in which I can use my SA credit card? After seeing the broadband stats and a few other African countries with better broadband than us - I'm wondering if they may have a better iStore than Keny?

I know US/UK are out because of our cards (need vouchers) - but what about Europe or Asia or any of the other countries listed?

Ahhh, please give me advice on this..I already registered on the SA store but can I have an account at another store too? I've tried to download apps but mostly it comes up as saying not available in SA. If I register at another store, will the apps still come down onto the iTunes thingie on my pc? So far, I've only found one app worth paying for on the SA store. Also want to use my cc, but also have a PayPal?? Any advice for this iPad newbie or point me in the right direction...TIA.

Sorry not much information on this as the general trend (worldwide) is to have a US account. IMO the only other countries worth trying are UK, Japan, and some European countries but they all have the same card restrictions ie your card's prefix (bin number) clearly identifies your card as South African.

The Kenya store is a fluke -- not sure how many of these exist and I'm pretty sure that any stores with decent content will most likely have the card checks (most probably a requirement enforced by the contract wirh the media houses)

Thanks Droid!

Kenya will suffice for me - just wondering if there was something better with a local card
