I don't have one!

Can a rooted phone point to a different Market 'source' ?

The Market app is closed-source, so you'll have to spend some time disassembling that. On top of that, the Amazon downloads are geo-located you need a US ip number to access it. Nothing that you couldn't solve with a VPN. But good luck ;)
