Vista Anytime Upgrade - Australia???

Posed this before and got no response so I'll try again...

....I am interested in upgrading from Home Premium to Ultimate. When I
clicked thru the Anytime Upgrade advisor before, Australila is NOT in the
list of participating countries....

....why? Will it ever be?

But now...when I click to install the Begin Upgrade Process I can't even get
to the List of countries...I get Connect to the
Internet.....Retry/Ignore.....well, I AM connected, and no amount of
retrying helps?

Thoughts? Firewalling????

It hasn't been rolled out to us Down Under yet. We still aren't in the
list of countries

Goto a vista retailer, and purchase Vista Ultimate Upgrade software.
Ive not heard of any re-seller NOT OFFERING upgrade packages, ive never ever
baught the full software, i only ever purchase UPGRADE's, courtesy of my
first Dell computer, which shipped with windows 2000, and the Windows 2000
Cd and Lisence, thats all ive ever needed since
