Ask YC: Incorporation in Delaware (remotely)?

So, here's the story: I need to set up an LLC for some corp-to-corp work, with an eye towards using the same company to form a startup later on down the road. I am located outside the USA, and will be there for the majority of the job (it's located in Russia). Does it make sense for me to set up an LLC remotely in Delaware, where there are a lot of services for companies located elsewhere? What are some 'gotchas' about remote incorporation that I am missing? And is it necessary to set up a bank account? Any advice (I know you're not lawyers or accountants, but still) would be appreciated...
