220/110 volt device Vs using adapter

is using a 220 V device in USA with a converter or using a 110 V in asia with a converter any less desirable than having a 110V device in asia and vice versa?

is there any cause for concern that the device will have more unstable pulses or any fuse to burn up?

the issue is: a device is desired to be used in asia but is available in usa in 110v. is it worth getting it with a converter or just not bother with it.

thanks

I am thinking of a cordless telephone machine. so would the consensus be 'it does not matter'? go with what is the cheaper option?

dbrunton, would you feel most of the top line phones will fit into the category. i do not see any 220v phones there (because it is a usa site)
