    I own the Sony 120v AC power supply for my SZ330P/B, and the Kensington 120W AC/DC unit. I get tingles with the Sony no matter how I plug it into the AC source, but with the Kensington, I get tingles in one position, but none if I reverse the polarity as I plug it into my AC source. Thus you do not need a 3 wire non-US Sony power supply , or the 3 wire IGO unit to eliminate the tingles- as far as I can tell. My AC source to my notebook and its Sony or Kensington power supply is filtered through an APC SurgeArrest power base- in case that has an effeft on my results.
