US DS to UK power question

Hi all - happy xmas...

I've just bought (well still awaiting delivery!) my g/f a DS from the States and i was wondering if it will on 240v?
Will I need a 110v - 240v step-up adapter or just a UK 3-pin DS charger, like this one : Mains Power Charger Home Adapter for Nintendo DS Lite on eBay, also, Nintendo DS, Accessories, Video Games (end time 26-Dec-07 13:56:43 GMT)

I don't want to plug it straight in to 240v and blow the bugger up!

Thanks, Chris...

You shouldn't need to worry about blowing anything up by plugging the US 110v adapter into a UK 240v socket, chances are it won't fit.
I say just buy the 240v adapter since it would be safer and more reliable than a step-up adapter.
