can anyone tell me if the power unit that comes with it has a 110-230 voltage? I am visiting the US next week and want to buy the T|E but only if it had a 110-230 power adapter.

My first was a V also from the US but had a 110 only power supply and that kind of s*cked. I always had to carry an extra power converter around..

It has... But the best is that the T|E can be charged directly from the USB port (rather slowly, but it really works !!!)

I notice Stanson is from France. It's very likely that any PDA sold abroad would have 110-220 voltage.

The fact is that the T|E sold in the US is 110 B]only[/B].

You can, as he noted, charge via the USB cable but that will take you a good long time & is best done overnight.

Mmmh, well, I'm into that kind of problem : I bought a T|E in the US whereas I live in France, and now I'm stuck with a damn power supply which claim only 110V input.
I know in France Power Supply bundled with the T|E are 100-240V, but I can not find it anywhere... :(
Any help? :D

i am back from the states and didn;t buy the |e. I have had it in my hand for a couple of times and just loved the machine.. basic not to much features but enough for me but the power supply made me NOT to buy it.

i brought a Belkin 54g with 2 pcm card instead.. and that was 110V-240V SO. some companies are learning..

SO next thing is waiting to see where they are gonna get teh cheapest with 240V power supply (GER, BE, NL)

I just did get my tungsten E delivered (I'm in the UK). Comes with 100-240 Volt adapter, and with 3 additional plugs for EU, US, and one other one (don't know for which countries that one is). I am very happy to have upgraded from an Sony SL10 (not too bad device, but the grey-scale screen was quite poor).
