laptops ipods, imacs, iphones- whatever you want electronics wise way way cheaper. The main issue is tvs, different way of displaying so you cant buy in the USA and bring them over- they wont work, however pretty much anything else will (you may require an adapter or a transformer but other than that you're good)

It will work fine but, tbh, it's a pernickity piece of equipment.

We had a TV at home which came from the states that worked fine, and a plasma at the minute which is also going OK
when your buying your ipod in the states ask for an adapter that works in ireland, it costs about $30

I have the iPod that Bono was flogging 2 years ago. (Not the special U2 one cos I hate the overblown cnuts)

Don't get me wrong - 90% of the time it's fine but it can 'hang' at times and needs to be reset. A few times the only way I could reset it was to let the battery run dowm.

Small complaints really for this yoke that has all my music, podcasts, some music videos etc all to hand.

It is indeed
Just read what I had to do to get mine functioning normal after constant -48 error.

The fix is called "Syncing to Steve Job´s time"

Temporarily change the Time Zone setting in Mac OS X to Pacific Standard Time (PST) as shown below. This setting can be accessed from the Date & Time panel in System Preferences.
Open the latest version of iTunes and Restore your iPod
After successfully restoring your iPod, change the Time Zone back to your normal setting.

There is no plug needed with the iPod, just the standard USB cable which comes with it.

Exactly theres no plug. I got 30Gb one in New York back in June. 60euro cheaper than over here, its every cheaper now with the dollar falling.

Has anyone at home got their hands on the bose sound dock for the ipod? How much are they going for at home? Mrs Puckoon just got me one for the birthday - some sound from it.
