Can the Nintendo DS lite work in England?
well I'm that much closer to buying a DS and BAM! and a wall pops up, since the plugs in England are different, will the voltage overcharge or whatever you say the DS and destroy it or will it be fine, the voltage in America where i plan to buy it from is 120 Volts and the Voltage over in England is 240 :O.

I'm British and it's not a company I've heard of. They may have a partner in the UK which your phone will tune into automatically. But don't expect a North American phone to just work here. It probably won't. North American cellphones work on different radio wavebands from the rest of the world, so unless you have a tri-band or quad-band phone it won't find a network to tune into. It's just the same as if you have an AM only radio and take it to a country where all the radio stations use FM - it ends up being as much practical use as a brick. THIS is the real issue - so check with your company first whether you need a completely new phone. If so, you might be able to put your SIM card into it and use it normally. One possibility is just to wait until you get here, then go to a mobile phone shop such as Carphone Warehouse and buy a cheap one, either without SIM so you can insert yours, or for pay as you go on one of the British networks. It might actually be cheaper depending on what your roaming charges are compared with what the charges on a British phone might be for calling abroad. There are 4 main British networks and there's not much in it between their charges - I happen to use Vodafone. The best thing to do about a charger is just get a UK/US voltage convertor so you can plug it in to a 3 pin British socket and that should work fine. You'll need one if you bring over anything else electrical anyway.

Call Sprint and ask. There's an extra monthly charge for me to use my cell phone to call my brother in England so I can't call him from the States to the UK. I borrow a friend's phone that she purchased on line specifically to use while travelling abroad, it wasn't expensive. Then I bought a charger in England to recharge while I was there. Again, wasn't expensive.

No I do not believe so. But why not go back to whoever issued your license and ask them.
