I've bought a couple of ipods in the States in the past and had no problems at all.
They come with a USB charging cable which plugs into any computer.0 -
depends on the model you are after but they can be just as cheap to by here than over there at the moment especially with the deals around at the mo.0

Consider this:
ipod touch 8gb in the USA is currently $229 + sales tax, say approx 10% so $252 at todays exchange rate thats £163 + a convertor for the plug.
Last week I bought an 8gb touch airside for £160 which included a £20 HMV voucher and a £25 itunes cardLive each day like its your last because one day you'll be right0 -
Looks unlikely to be money saving, there are plenty of offers around at the moment and might be cash back from https://www.quidco.com or similar cashback websites.Posts are not advice and must not be relied upon.0

And of course any any Apple warranty will be void as soon as it leaves the U.S. Steve Jobs warranties are country specificThe common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.0
