Noticed that too.

I thought that was strange too.
Also noticed that Google have an app on the US store but not the UK one. Hopefully there just launching the USA versions first before they go international. Hope its not going to be all the good stuff US only.

Not quite.
A few things such as Pandora, Google Mobile etc, are not available internationally.
Pandora hasn't been operating in the UK for a while now. I wouldn't expect them to launch in the UK as you wouldn't be able to use it.

I found the google app on engadget, have been trying to work out why it's not available in the UK since :(

i have downloaded some of the free aps from the uk store, but i also have a US itunes account too..
would i be able to download the ebay/google apps using my US itunes account..

this will mean i will have a mixture of apps from the UK store and US store using 2 account.. will they sync up to my iPhone ok? or will it only allow 1 account?

I found many apps not working during early on, and are working now, like iPint, and a few others. I expect you will see these apps later today or tomorrow. DOn't take my word on it though!

Same problem in Canada... Big yellow ebay logo on the app store's main page, but click on it and you get that same unavailable message.

I'd like to know this too, if anyone can confirm that would be great.

I also have a US itunes account, and tried this, it synced to my iphone fine, and it lets you log in, but it shows up in $$'s and you can only search eBay US.
I hope they release a UK version soon.
