thanks (and Beau also) for the pointers.

Well, how annoying. I'm only asking for the short-hand response, which merely takes a city name to a lat/lon, and doesn't involve postal codes at all (either in the query or the response).

Onward to other sources...

Trying to look up "London, England" or "London, UK" via the geocoder
at http://maps.google.com/maps/geo
returns this status code (translated to words):
The geocode for the given address cannot be returned due to legal or
contractual reasons.

maps.google.com does work with the same input, and many other places
in Europe return the info ok.
Anyone experienced the same thing?
