US & UK Versions of New iPod- Whats The Difference

[westyfield2]

Hi Dudes,

I have noticed that there appears to be UK & US versions of the new iPod video - lots of eBay auctions stress that they are selling the UK version,
eg. eBay.co.uk item #5826533067 says "UK version, NOT US Version" , "100% England Version" and "NOT USA Version"

So, what are the differences between the UK & US versions?



Will the US version work in the UK (and vica versa)?



Many Thanks
Ed

Got a reply off the apple forums.

Hi Ed,

The US version will work fine in the UK and vice versa.

Only differences are the European iPods have a volume limiter and the price is cheaper in the US though by the time you add on cost of international shipping and possible VAT duty charges the saving will be minimal.

As the newer iPods don't come with a charger you can just buy one from Apple (or charge from your computer). There isn't a voltage problem.
