What is the emergency number in SA which is the equivalent of 911 in the USA? I have a Sony Ericsson GSM phone, model T226. This phone doesn't work on the frequencies in use in south africa. You answered all of my questions with one sentence. I was going to buy a 240 volt charger but now see no need to do so. I'll just turn my phone off and hope there is some charge left when I return to the US When you're in SA, you could pick up an appropriate phone with coverage for a few tens of dollars, handy to have anyway whilst you're there I'm sure.
