    hey all,

    I just realized something, when I placed my order it said "US/Canada" power adapter.. meaning it has that weird power adapter and takes only US voltage?

    In the US the voltage is 120 right? will I need any converter or have to buy new adapter to be able to use it on the 240v?

    No. All power adapters are universal. Though you may need a plug adapter.

    You're getting US style (obviously works in Canada and Mexico too) adapter-to-wall-outlet plug in this version. If you got the EU versions, you'd get the French/German/Spanish two round prong cord... etc.
    All the bricks are 110-240V 50/60Hz.
