I am probably going to buy a Sony 40" LCD (although I will wait until the end of Sept to decide). I will be in the US towards the end of the month. If I bought it in the US, would it sill work the same in the UK?
Apart from the TV tuner not working at all, the need for a step-down transformer - for which budget £100 or so with the potential of nasty effects on the picture quality -, the chance of damage in transit, not to mention it costing a fortune to bring back, the 22% or so VAT and duty you'll get hit with when you bring it into the UK and the potential problems should it go wrong, it'll be just fine.
