As far as I know, and this includes prior experience of SD software, you'll be paying the US$ price.

edit: It sucks that games cost as much as they do in this part of the world (have just moved from the UK - NZ and am experiencing the sizable price jump first hand). :(  /moan

It is all in US dollars. The amount you pay also depends on what version you want to get.

The Download Only will set you back around $49.70 (AUS, based on current exchange rate of 0.9038)

The Download + Box Copy will set you back $49.95 + $20.00 for Postage & Handling. So this will be around $77.40 (AUS).

You must also take into account the added bonus for us Aussies/New Zealanders and that is pre-ordering through Stardock gets you the game on release day. The retail release for Australia from the dates I have seen is around 18-20th April. So thats over 2 months in advance of the retail release locally. Also you get the collectors Edition with Stardock.
