For Vita remote-play to be a proper feature, Sony needs to implement button mapping.

FIFA has R2/L2 on the back touch. It's awful in my experience, good luck sprinting. There was also more artifacting in the video than I expected.

will amazon uk ship to the us?
Yes, so long as it's not a videogame. I've ordered books and DVDs from them before.
It's sad, but they've been sold out there for a long time. I got mine early this year before they went away.

Yep no reason we shouldn't have more options
And see no reason why Sony can't do this in an update

EDIT: Found It http://www.reddit.com/r/vita/comments/1qfs67/l2r2_mock_up/
There was some guy on Reddit that is prototyping a case that adds the triggers to the Vita
Damnit I wish i could find his post but it seems like a logical addition to have Case Triggers that push little levers into the Back touch locations.
Will we see more of this perhaps?

Huh?? How?! To carry a single controller isn't at all the same as carrying a PS4, a suitable power source, etc.
I carry a DS3 around to sync with my tablet for gaming, and I think a lot of people would agree that the benifits of proper controls out weigh the loss of "portability" (if you can even consider it that, it is all wireless!!!)
Different people hold the Vita differently. Also grips.
That's actually pretty neat that the devs can do that. But It seems like an unnecessary amount of (guess)work for them when we should be able to map them to fit ourselves.
I didn't know about the PSP emulator already offering this, so hopefully that means Sony is aware of the concept of button mapping. It's entirely in their own interests if they want any sort of word of mouth to sell this feature. I'd imagine it would mobilize a lot of Vita sales if people realized how awesome it is.
It seems an alarming amount of people share my sentiments, so hopefully Sony clues into the issues surrounding one of their prime next-gen features.

Can't argue with that.
Why not just let us pair the DS4 with it?
I wouldn't mind sitting it in a cradle to play.
That seems cumbersome and pretty stupid, like using a Wiimote on the Wii U pad. The Vita should have been designed with two triggers in the first place.

I'd rather actually be holding the system myself but I wouldn't object to this. I say do both. If I had the choice I'd rather just buy an accessory that adds buttons to the Vita, but using a DS4 to play games on Vita is a nice solution too. If Sony would implement this feature quickly it could be a somewhat temporary solution until they release an accessory.
I'd like that, but I know some people have issues with the Wii U gamepad requiring that setup for offscreen Wii gameplay.
I'm saying, you'll have to set up the Vita somewhere to use the controller. At that point you're probably too far away from it to get a good experience. If you can't use the Vita controls, just don't play that game and wait until you get home.

Nah, I don't think that's a pipedream. It's certainly plausible. The DS4 connects via Bluetooth and the Vita has bluetooth built-in. If Sony did this, then all our problems would be solved!Would love a future patch to allow me to tether a DS4 to my VITA...
But I'm positive this is a pipedream

Is there no way to change the button configuration on the game then?

And with that, im glad I didn't get the system right now. Im one of those people who cannot play his vita without always touching the backpad accidentally.
Will wait for a proper update.

I'm sure they will. In the meantime, this would by my solution: Map L2/R2 to the L/R buttons, map L3/R3 to front or back touch screen (user option) and do the same with L1/R1.

Yeah, the default remapping of triggers to the touchpad isn't really ideal - way too easy to trigger those accidentally. At least Resogun allows you to remap controller buttons, so you can use e.g. the face buttons for bomb and throw human instead (still not perfect though, since you'd need to switch back to the normal scheme if you prefer that for playing on PS4).
