Hey,

How can i charge my Dell Axim X51v in Sri Lanka?
I'm not sure if i want to take my Pocket PC there
for my mission trip. But the Plane ride is going
to be SOOOO boring without my ppc :cry: .

So if there is anything i could use to charge it, could
you tell me soon! I'm leaving this Sunday! Thanks!

Do they not have electricity in Sri Lanka? The charger that came with your Dell is universal. Just needs the right plug adapter. You can pick up a set at Radio Shack, or about any large airport gift shop.

From http://www.tourism-srilanka.com/ :


Electricity
The electric current in Sri Lanka is 230-240V, 50 cycles, alternating current. Since voltage tends to fluctuate quite often in Sri Lanka, it is safer to bring a stabiliser if you are going to be using sensitive electronic equipment.
Two and three pin round plugs are used widely. However adapters are readily available at electrical stores. In case you lose your adapter or forget to bring it, you could even have a local electrician attach a new plug.

I think you're safe.

If you have regular access to a computer, couldn't you use USB? Or car charger?
