How to charge laptop & cellphone at same time in Europe?
How can you safely charge a laptop and blackberry from one European adapter plug? Is it safe to first plug in the adapter, then an american extention cord or surge protector into the adapter, then both the laptop and blackberry into the extention cord?

That would be safe. The power used by both is quite small.

Answer 1 :
i think so
Answer 2 :
On some laptops the power supply is labeled "110-240 volts AC". If it isn't labeled like that you will need a transformer and in any case you will need plug adapters.

Answer 1 :
at&t or verizon network card, a bit expensive but it works, it basically connects your computer to cell phone networks giving you internet just about everywhere a cell phone works.

How can i bring a laptop from USA to Europe?
How can i bring a laptop from USA to Europe?
I live in Portugal, and I want to purchase the new macbook pro. In USA it costs like 500 euros less. I thought i friend could buy it in USA and bring it to Portugal. Will they check if its his in the airport? Can he bring it in the same box he bought in or does he has to pretend its his?

Answer 1 :
He can carry it like any other hand luggage. US authorities do not care. Whether or not you have to report to customs on arrival in Portugal is another question.
Answer 2 :
Your friend can carry the laptop. He should take it as a carry on.They don't ask the ownership of the computer. They only care if someone is carrying something illegal or dangerous. Theres a chance they may check the box or ask him or open it to proove that its a computer. My sister has traveled the globe with her laptop. No one has ever questioned her about wether she owns it.
Answer 3 :
Technically he is supposed to declare to EU customs that he is bringing the laptop into the EU and leaving it there, so it would be subject to EU customs duty. But it's not likely that they'll check. If you think you are going to sneak it into the EU, I would not bring it in the same box he bought it in since most people who travel with their laptops don't bring that kind of stuff with them. It's worth noting that you will not be eligible for any warrantee/repair in Portuggal (if needed). You'd have to have the laptop brought back to the US for repairs under warrantee. And there may be some differences in what is pre-loaded onto the laptop from the US compared to what you get in Portugal.
