I don't know what fraction of AWS users are outside of the US, but I'm sure it's not a completely trivial number. Please, find a way for us to use services like this. I know there's legal and accounting headaches involved, but they can't be any worse than the headaches involved in buying land and building datacenters, and you manage to do that just fine.

Seriously, my startup (tarsnap) is almost entirely AWS-based (the other exception is email -- I use sendgrid because SES is incompatible with public mailing lists) and I'd love to offer Amazon Payments as an option to my customers, but because I'm based in Canada it's not an option.
