I've also done this, it's not too hard. There are plenty of online services that let you setup an LLC in Delaware, LLCs have good benefits for non-residents.

You can then setup a business bank account as a non-residents using your LLC EIN, but I had to visit the US in person to do this.

Aside from the trip, what were the costs of this? That's something I'm considering doing...

Sorry about the slow reply:

US LLC Incorporation and registered agent ~$300/y

Everything else is essentially free, I have a registered mailbox that redirects my mail and a US Skype Number attached to my iPhone. You'll need a US address to setup the bank account initially.
