Answer 1 :
Provided he purchases the laptop from a retailer that participates in the retail export scheme (this is a voluntary scheme, so not all retailers do) he can declare his intention to export the machine at the time he buys it and fill in the necessary paperwork. The VAT is paid at the point of sale but when he leaves the country he can present the machine and paperwork to Customs as proof of export and they will refund the VAT.

yes just make sure you have right power converter handy though.
Answer 2 :
It depends on the transformer in the power supply if it can accept something like 110V-240V you are fine
Answer 3 :
As long as you get the correct power converter. I have german guys coming in every week to get converters for their laptops so they can use them in the US
Answer 4 :
As long as the power supply (brick) is either switchable or self adjusting (120V - 240V) yes. All you'll need is a plug adapter.
Answer 5 :
You can use Sony Canada Notebook even outside the Canada. The power adapter supplied with the Sony Notebook operates at Dual Voltage. The Notebook utilizes an auto switching power supply for voltages between 110 and 240 volts. There is no need to purchase any voltage adapter. All that is required is the plug adaptor for the wall outlet...

I shall be in the USA for a month but the apartment does not have broadband access, only a telephone line. I know it is no problem to obtain an ISP for a month but need to know what adapters are required.Are the telephone sockets the same over there or different to ours? Will a simple plug adapter sort out the electricity supply?

Answer 1 :
You would be best off getting something like Mobile Internet. UK wise companies like Vodafone offer mobile internet. You may have to sign up for a year (contract wise) but you will get a usb stick that allows you to connect to the internet where ever you can get a signal (be sure to check they work abroad). There is loads of companies doing this now, just have a search around Yahoo or another search engine for more advice. You should find that bars in Benidorm will also offer free (providing your buying a drink) internet access as well, if all else fails.
