My friend has bought his Mac over in england and is coming over soon...

However we live in quite a rural city so a shop in Seoul is a long slog for a converter....

So is there any place online I can order one in Korea that will delivere??

Also perhaps is there anywhere in busan that sells one???

He shouldn't need a converter, his power adapter should work fine, he will need a new plug though, which he can interchange on the power adapter. Apple's Korean website does sell the apple world travel kit which is simply a set of "duckhead plugs" 6 I believe, which will work on an recent apple computer or ipod charger. It is expensive though, about $40 us or 53,000 won. Hope that helps.

The Apple World Adapter Travel kit is really cool...modular and matches a white iBook. But just an expensive toy, at US$39.00. You can get the W500 plug adapter at a hardware store, even out in the sticks.

A friend of mine has that, but she hates it. She wants to buy my Korean adapter (from the Travel Kit) when I leave next month. 'Course the nice guy that I am, I'm giving it to her for free.
