Hi Rich, apparently Slovaks use the E-type outlet. You can plug essentially any "Continental European" plug: both C-type (also called "French", unearthed, with narrow prongs), and most of the F-type or Schucko ("German", slightly larger prongs but identically centered) plugs: those that have a hole near the earth band to accept the E-type earth socket prong (unless retractable at socket, in which case any Schucko will work). In summary: Just ask for (or get) an Euro adapter.
You may want to bookmark http://www.kropla.com/electric2.htm for an extensive guide.
BTW, anybody riding Vienna-Bratislava on Tuesday 18th around midday?
Regards,

Hi All,
I'm just now sorting out how I'm going to get from the Vienna airport to the Bratislava (http://www.tdwg.org/conference2007/housingtravel/travel/), and I think I'm just going to book a Taxi. I'm writing this note now to find out:
- Whether anyone arriving at about the same time at Vienna
airport would be interested in sharing a taxi ride with me; or
- Whether anyone arriving at about the same time at Vienna
airport who has already booked a taxi would be interested in having me share it with them.
I arrive on Sunday (15 Sept) at 10:05am on Delta flight 40. I don't mind hanging around the airport for a few hours to synch up with others arriving later in the day, but I would like to get to Bratislava in time to attend the Literature interest group meeting at 14:30.
Thanks in advance,
Aloha, Rich
P.S. Anyone know what style of electical outlet they have in Bratislava?
