Hi

A friend of mine is wanting to buy an iBook and wants to get it from Hong Kong the next time he visits there and bring it back to the UK.

Could you tell me if he will have any problems with doing that? I belive the valtage is the same there and they have the same 3 pin plugs???

Also would the keyboard layout be the same as UK models and would there be any problems with the language set up etc?

Many thanks
Scot

Ps He will be my 3rd switcher now :)

I think HK should have the same plugs as the UK.. heck, they were a british colony... :D
 
Correct.

HK Apples are go to go in the UK. The keyboard will be missing the Euro and Pound symbols thats about all.
