I just picked up a similar device from within UK for £2:40 IIRC. Received day after order and seems to work well except I also needed a null cable which I could have made up myself but ended up buying for ~£1.60. If you want to pay good money you could go to your local Maplin and pay ~£25 for the convertor and ~£15+ for the cable. 8^| ------------------------------------------------------------------------ slackhead's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13963 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=99395
