Hey there,

I was thinking of bringing my laptop over with me, however, I have heard that problems can arise from the difference in volts. I was wondering if I could get an adaptor for this. Also, I heard the internet is quite pricey as well, anyone have any idea as to how much it costs. Anything other info would be great.

Thanks

Where are you? If you are coming from NA then you don't need any adapters. You only need them for Japan and Korea. Taiwan uses the same voltage as NA. However, Taiwan doesn't use the three pronged plug, except for high voltage sockets. If your laptop has a three pronged plug, you can buy a cheap 3 into 2 add-on that will do the trick. It's a different story if You're coming fom England...
