I'm a Brit living in France and am finally getting an iPhone this weekend. One thing I was wondering was, is it possible to use apps from 2 different countries on the same phone?

I've got accounts with both the UK and French iTunes stores, which I use to watch movies from each. But having seen the problems people have been having with multiple Apple IDs in one country, I can imagine using two different lots of apps may well be impossible. I'd just like to use local train time apps, restaurant finders etc.

If anyone living abroad has any tips I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,

Will

Works exactly the same way.

You can only switch stores every 90 days, but the apps will work fine in the meantime — sans updates.

Isn't that only for the iTunes store? I switch between the US and Canadian App Stores all the time.
