Actually, you *MUST* have an adapter: While it's true that the Newton power
brick will handle 220V, the two flat pins of an American plug or the two
round pins of a European style plug won't fit into the sockets in the wall. I
was just back there last August/September and tried it. No go.

"lallang" is the Malay term for elephant grass that has silicate (and thus
razor-sharp) edges. Known in the USA as "cogon grass". Click on or cut and paste
