Tyros 2 question for George Kaye - 09/09/05 04:17 AM

George,

A friend of mine here in South Africa is eager to get the Tyros 2 as soon as they're out. The problem is that I phoned Yamaha's head office in South Africa and they arrogantly told me that the Tyros 2 will only be out in South Africa next year June.....if we're lucky..

I was told the reason for this was because South Africa is a 3rd world country still....

He also told me good luck with buying one from the USA because the voltage there is 100 volts. South Africa uses 220-240.

Is there any way my friend can buy a Tyros 2 from you. He wants to pay by credit card. If it is possible, what about the voltage problem...

He could also try to buy it from a european vendor where 220-240 V is standard.
Anyway a voltage converter from 220V to 100V is not difficult to find and not so expensive.
