Looks now amazon UK has band of brothers blu ray at $42, but it's PAL. Can ps3 play PAL without any problem?

Blu-ray is not PAL or NTSC. Its either region coded or its not.

In this case, the Region 1 set comes out in like 2 weeks so I'd probably just wait for that rather then risking the UK version not working (and the shipping time, and shipping etc.)

Its $5 more on Amazon.com right now for the US release...so it might be worth it just to wait another week or two. I'm anxiously awaiting to finally checking out this series as I skipped it on DVD (mainly due to the price at its release) and never bothered grabbing the HD DVDs. The tin sealed the deal for me!
