    heyas,

    i've just revieved my mx mouse from greece (got it cheaper)...but have come to a lil problem.

    the plug doesnt fit to austrlia powerpoints, they look like this:

    aust: / \ greece:.... is just two circles one on top of the other like :

    i know there are cheaper heads you can get to make them fit..but im concerening about the power-voltage-usage-thingy differences...will i need a transformer (i know these costs alot) cos that would reall suck.

    on the plug it provides the following information:

    input: 100-240VAC 50/60Hz 0.2A
    output: ___
    +8V --- 0.5A

    im really hoping i just need to get one of them heads..

    just found out i can. australia's power is the 240v..well 230 now:

    As of the year 2000, the mains supply voltage as specified in AS 60038 has changed to 230 V with an allowed tolerance of +10% -6%[9]. This was done in the interests of voltage harmonisation - however 240 V is within tolerance and is commonly found. Mains voltage is still popularly referred to as being "two-forty volts". (wiki)
    thanks!
