The whole reason I did this was to gift an app to my nephew in the States, but I couldn't use my gift card balance to gift an app! I HAVE to have a credit card or paypal account associated with a USA address to gift an app. I think I will just give my nephew my account info and he can sign in and download it himself.

I clicked on US, went through the setup by putting in email, security questions and clicked on NONE when asked for credit card details.

This is not a some sort of secret. Who doesn't use a web-proxy to get the US goodies? From watching sports, through itunes, to netflix... Everyone does is, just this is better explained, instead of making holes in the Internet, you get it written as it should be. Also, this information can be found in all sorts of forums, blogs, etc. :) The only problem is the speed. Because when you download something from your Appstore, the server is close and get it fast, but when it is in US... I don’t think so. This is not a some sort of secret.
