Buying Recording Gear in USA

[BOD2]

OK - I'm off to Orlando for two weeks this Saturday with the family. I'm hoping I might be able to escape from Disneyworld for at least a day (although even that's not guaranteed )

I've had my eye on the new [url="http://tascam.com/products/dp-02.html"]Tascam DP02[/url] for a while now but at £349 I'm not that keen. However, US prices seem to be around US$349 (strange how the exchange rate works for electrical goods ?)

So...if I was to see one in Orlando at that sort of price I might consider it. Is there anything I need to watch out when buying something like that in the US and bringing it home ? Has anyone bought anything like this ?


I know there's an issue with mains power but the DP02 seems to have a universal transformer (110- 240 V) and is just supplied with a suitable power cord for the region (and anyway I could easily get a 12V adaptor for it if necessary).
