The iBook runs on European current. We came back to AZ in May, 2002. I used my PB5300 plugged in every day in England and Holland. All you need is the correct adapter. A packet of adapters, about 4 of them and all usable in Europe, is about $8.00 at AAA offices here. No need to change voltage. Just plug the adapter in between your iBook power cord and the wall socket. If the holes fit, and there is an adapter that will in that package, then you are in business. Don't see if they are cheaper in Europe. In Britain they price things as if a pound sterling is equivalent to a US dollar. It takes one and one-half dollars to buy one pound sterling. My advice is don't wait and do be prepared to spend more for everything in Europe. Even worse now that the dollar has gone down.
