With all due respect, I guess most people here did not live outside the North America much and attempted to open account out there with Paypal.

What’s the point of restricting purchases of goods that can be used across multiple applications? Would think you would want to allow that, as it allows developers to create mini ecosystems of popular applications, which can only be beneficial to RIM in the long run.

Are there any future plans for this payment service to address the sale of “Physical Goods and Services”. If not, would you be able to recommend an API for this. Thanks.

You can use PayPal. Create a PayPal account and transfert money on it and you will be able to pay anything without a Credit Card.
