The difference is that in the UK you can still keep a gmail account if you had it early enough. I suspect that if you got a friend in the US to set it up for you it would be fine too. Otherwise it has to be googlemail.

I guess Google didn't research the copyright issues on the name gmail thoroughly enough.
