QUOTE(gzavincent @ Feb 20 2011, 07:43 PM) Hey guys, can our power adapter work in Japan? Since their power is different from ours.. No prob, Japan is 100v which the MacBook adaptor supports. Japan's non-polarized electrical outlets are identical to US ones, 2 identical size metal prongs, which you already have. If you find a polarised outlet where one prong is larger than the other, it'll still work, the MacBook adaptor doesn't mind. Anyway if you're staying in a hotel, not too worry, they'll have universal outlets for every conceivable plug, including Malaysian ones. Safest bet is to bring the US plug, it's like US Dollars, it's accepted anywhere in the world. Well, except maybe for Europe.

Does anyone know where I can get a MiniDP > HDMI with USB Audio adapter in KL?
Cheapest I can find is from Ebay RM166 with shipping.
On Amazon there is one from Kanex which supports 5.1 audio too but wont ship to Malaysia.

@destfull
Kindly use your words wisely whenever possible. Calling Apple users dumb due to the lack of hardware knowledge is not appropriate or called for. If you want to share your comments, kindly do it politely with good infos and thus helping the community to gain knowledge as well.
Cheers & Thank you
