It won't work the same way. For win7 Upgrade versions (from what I've gathered) you'll have to install and activate your Old OS and then put 7 on over the top.
MS are basically doing us in Europe a huge favour - the preorder pricing for Win7 Home Premium E is VERY heavily discounted. Like, it's about £50.
We couldn't Upgrade if we wanted to (meh), don't have IE installed as default (yay!), and get the Full Version for the price they would've been charging for the inferior Upgrade Edition.
