How non-US Kindle Owners can get Kindle for iPhone app

Charlie Sorrel of Wired's Gadget Lab reports a workaround for International Kindle users to get a hold of the Kindle for iPhone app, which is sold only in the US app store.  I missed this one while on that longish vacation.
' Thanks to the iTunes Store option to choose “none” as a payment method, you can sign up for a US iTunes account with nothing more than an e-mail address (not the one you normally use), a real address and a cellphone number.  Any free applications are then available to download, and best of all, when you hook up your iPhone or iPod Touch the application just syncs.

... this experiment showsjavascript:void(0) that US travelers will have access to Whispersync via their cellphones whilst abroad... this is limited to the books bought from the Kindle store. But hey, it’s free. If you know how to get it. '
