I did a quick google search and came up with a site that has the book and accepts overseas orders. However, there is a note for US customers, that delivery might be delayed due to customs inspection.
I got a confirmation email that my order has shipped and it's going fedEx ... so hopefully by the end of the week it will be here

Oh how pissed off i am!!
I finally was about to order the book of HMV Japan but all my putting off preordering it has now left the book out of stock and i can't get it yet *cries*
Amazon it costs £30 including postage and i dont want to pay that much for it.
The moral of this story...PREORDER TO AVOID EPIC DISAPPOINTMENT!!
I just got my book in the mail today and it is very cool.
The book is broken down into sections that cover ...
5 CM per second (about 104 pages)
Hometown - The street where they meet Chobi, the school
Railway - Pictures of the trains and the stations that Takaki takes to meet Akari
Rencounter - The meeting of Takaki and Akari at the end of Episode 1 and pictures of Episode 2 and Episode 3.
A Place Promised ... ( 34 pages)
... General pictures
Laboratory - Pictures of Sayuri in the Lab
Voices of a Distant Star (11 pages)
From Here to Eternity - General pictures from the film
Shinano Mainichi Shimbun Television Commercial (4 pages)
4-5 pages that show how the pictures are layered and assembled to create some of the classic images (Takaki an Akari with Chobi)
What looks like 10 pages of interviews with either voice actors/actresses or interviews with Shinkai's team of artists.
My Impression: Very cool book. I would love this to be a larger sized "coffee table" type book with glossier pictures ... some of these images really deserve a larger page with a higher quality presentation.
The book cost about $60 US. _________________ You're a woman, I'm a calf ... you're a window, I'm a knife ... we come together making chance into starlight ... - Jeff Buckley
It depends ... sometimes a couple sometimes only one. I tried to take a few pics of some of the pages in the book. I'll post those tomorrow so you can get a sense of the size of the book and the picture.
