Yes it is international (so we have been assured) but no announcement on
services/products/price structure has been forthcoming.

Hopefully these things will be so. But not soon. Lego direct will probably go
one of two ways. Either there will be different prices for each 'region' or
the cost of shipping they choose to add makes the price compairable to the
instore price.
Lego Australia can NOT undercut store prices, if they did the stores would
lose business, not stock lego and LA (and Lego Direct) would have to do
retail, something which, until the LD initative they have seemed very
reluctant to do.
Again the same argument applies to range (although it's a little harder to see
stores losing business over this one).

I love speculation.
