Default USA product , uk compat ?

Hi Guys , I`m after a AZBOX and found some good deals on fleabay , all from a USA seller , is there any reason the USA box wont be compatable with uk spec ? or any other issues i should bare in mind before taking the plunge , warranty is an obvious one , but the savings compared with UK prices are great , any info most welcome
thanks

The American Version will be 110v which means you will need a transformer to drop the voltage from our 230v supply. By the time you have bought that you may as well just buy one here. Not forgetting the import duty ofcourse.
