Use App store internationally??

Question

Hello,
I bought a 3rd Gen iPod Touch for my uncle who lives in Greece. My question is that is he able to download apps through the App Store on the iPod using an international account or he has to have a USA account?

I have a similar question that the terms of service doesn't quite answer.
My mother has just purchased an iPod Touch over in the UK, but she lives in Spain. She has a Sterling credit card with an off shore (Isle of Man) bank which is British, but is billed to her home in Spain. She also has new netbook with her whilst she's in the UK which we plan to put itunes on and get her setup.
Obviously the IP address of where she sets up iTunes will determine the 'home' store, so in theory if we set up on the UK, it should stick with the UK store once she gets home. However, will she be able to purchase anything on the UK store in the UK or in Spain with her British credit card which is billed to Spain?
If she can purchase from the UK store whilst in the UK, will she still be able to once back in Spain?
We have been advised that UK itunes gift cards should work, but still, will they once back in Spain where the IP address is different?
If none of the above works, she'll just have to make do with the Spanish iTunes store, which obviously wouldn't be the easiest of things to use, not being fluent in Spanish!
