    Hi Guys,

    I've got a 16gb 3gs running 3.1.3 not jailbroken. Is there any way for me to access the US or UK app store as I'm told there are some apps available which we cant get in Ireland, ie pandora and last.fm

    Any ideas? Apologies if it's a silly question or been asked a million times before :p

    Create a US account(with a US address) on the app store and fund it with iTunes USD$ gift cards (available on ebay etc).

    I signed up for free just listed country as United States. Get some random address off Yahoo people if it insists on valid zip etc. Came in handy as I got Eirtext Pro for free thru Vinny giving out a promo code.

    Apple will ask for two passwords each time you have to update appsdirectly on iPhone for other account and in some situations will not sync in iTunes both country accounts.

    Good luck...

    yup to update apps from another store you need to sign out of your IE account close app store, open app store, sign into US/UK store which is quite annoying.
