I heard that in former 110V-only countries you should be able to get a 
230V power line without much problems these days. Someone living in 
those would have to confirm though.

I'd take the 500W with a big grain of salt. I had something similar once 
and tried to power a studio VCR, which needed "only" about 300W and it 
couldn't run stable on similar "500W" device. I'd say take something 
that claims no less than 1kVA. Or get a 230V power line if possible in 
your location.
