one of the apps I was really looking forward to was the eBay app but I can't find it anywhere on the UK store....or am I just being blind?

Also noticed the google app and aol radio app are missing... (UK)

Yep, same as the Hong Kong iTunes store...missing these apps and ebay too.

Well, I found those apps off the internet "somewhere" (ebay.ips etc...) and placed them in my iTunes/Mobile Applications folder on my mac. Right clicked on the files and opened with iTunes to place them in the iTunes Applications directory. Although they are there, they wont sync with the iPhone/touch...it says the file is not authorised on this computer. So I guess it's DRM'd even though they are the free apps.

I then right-clicked on the app icon in iTunes to Get Info and noticed that it was purchased by someone else. I guess this is the problem. You can't do Show Package Content in Finder btw.

Not happy about this either.

I wanted the cool apps but miss out on ebay, Loopt etc. Are these due to be released here.

Also worried that other countries will do loose out in the future also :(
