Setting Market from US to UK?

Hi all,

I've just received a G1(Tmobile UK) today, and all in all am extremely excited by this handset, it really seems a good piece of kit.

Was surprised at the lack of Instant Messenger though, so I thought ok update to CupCake.. Funnily enough before I got the handset, I'd spoken to a guy at TMobile (as I was requesting a PAC code to leave to vodafone) who said he had cupcake on his G1 and that it should automatically update.

My version that came today still had firmware V1, so I went and did an update.. With the U.S. version that includes the IM software.

But so.. of course it makes sense.. but I didn't think about this before flashing, that the Market version is the U.S. Apps like ShopSavvy show everything in $ not
 
Darn it, sadly it won't flash the UK version now. After validating the install, it has an error code 256 and is failing in check_prereq.
:-(
