Look on the back of the AC adapter on the charger. if it has an AC in range of ~100-240V and 50-60Hz you are okay on the voltage and you just need an adapter for the plug to fit. You can buy it at Circuit City. There's one made by RCA and one by InterAct. Prices range from $8-$20 IIRC, but you can use it for other electronics that only need the plug conversion as well.

cool:) frys had simple plug converters for 5 bux:)

wouldn't go to frys for power converters though, their selection of those sucked. so no electric toothbrush 4 me.. ah well.

Typically, any international hotel will have converters for electric shavers, you could probably use those.
