Hi,
since refurbished pronto pros are so cheap in the usa i am considering bringing over one from my next trip to the states.

But what about docking station's power supply? Can someone give me good hint?

Thanks
Jonas

Not a problem, just use a 120 to 230 volt adapter and everything will be fine.

The Prontos use an external and common power supply. the best thing is just to buy a new power supply then to get a 220-110 transformer

Anthony and Jim, you don't use a 220-110 transformer.

You simply replace the 110V power adapter with a 240V one. This should cost about the equivalent of US$10-20.

Klipan, the power adapter is similar to a mobile phone charger and plugs directly into the wall power point.

Klipan,

Peter's right obviously. That's what I meant - replace the power supply, not use an adapter, but I said it very badly.

OK Anthony!

On re-reading your post I didn't notice your typo ("then" instead of "than"), which changed the meaning!!!

Thisis what I wanted to hear
Thanks, (happy because I'm getting Pronto Pro)

The only question is what to do with my Pronto and Pronto NG :-)
