No, it won't. 'Coz all TVs here r NTSC compatible. I've been trying since long to fetch one with dual compatibility. They do not recognize the PAL signal. I've the same issue -- none of my Dubai eqpts work, the Camcorders, Blu-ray player, the PS3 etc. And those converters r useless too. One -they r pretty pricey; Two -their output is absolutely trash.

Future Shop has the Wii on for $209, white, black and the Super Mario model in red.
Don't mean to hijack your thread but I have a question in return - I bought a Canadian Blackberry bluetooth ear attachment to use with a Blackberry Bold phone for a friend in India and I am hoping he will be able to use it there! Does anyone know if it will be OK? Thanks.
