Hi K...
I've got a Sony 505 which has made many happy trips to Pattaya. I no longer have to cart a suitcase full of heavy books on my holidays or rely on the local bookshops. A ziplok bag is sufficient to protect it on the beach. I bought the Sony online from the US store B&H. (I think the Thai baht is pretty strong against the US$ right now). I also picked up a Sony PSP Adaptor in Pattaya for 450 Baht. The Australian dollar was strong at the time so that was quite cheap. But I'm sure you could do better in Bangkok. The adaptor isn't essential, but it's convenient. |
