    Of course it comes with a UK power adapter
    Mine came with an international one I thought? It had the barrel shaped charging thing and then both UK 3-pin and international 2-pin plug end pieces that you could attach to it.

    The touchpad comes with a UK and a European adapter, the international pack is only worth buying if you travel outside of the EU. HTH

    you could just use a USB plug though ( 3 quid from ebay ), it will just take longer to charge

    Correct.

    Posted the link for those people who want all the accessories (like me!).

    We have cases, Touchstones, keyboards and power adapters.

    We even have Touchpads! (1 x 64, 1 x 32 and hopefully another 2 x 32 - all keepers!)

    The ones in RED would appear to be the John Lewis ones sold on Saturday, as people have been confirming that their boxes were marked xx of 100, xx of 120 and xx of 40.

    The ones in BLUE would appear to be the delivery to COMET to fulfill orders which have been confirmed by Comet for delivery to customers on Monday 5th September.

    INGRAM MICRO, WESTCOAST and COMPUTER 2000 are wholesalers, so that stock could be going anywhere! (guessing Misco, Amazon, Insight etc).

    AMEC GROUP must be a directly supplied customer - they are a construction/services company, so I guess their IT manager fancied one!

    Best buy UK have them cheaper than the regular half price.
    However, it's in-store collection only and they don't have that many branches.
