If its any help,
If you do find a Falcon from the US, I have a spare Falcon 220-240v power supply left over from my tower upgrade I dont need.
Some Swedish guy was supposed to be buying it off me, but its months since I have heard from him.
Does £15 inc UK shipping sound ok? I can send it anywhere else if you want.
the only other thing is American keyboards are very slightly different with no pound sign and a larger left shift key with no key there. :o)

Yeah, go it mate,
The ST has 3 wires, ( 12v and 5v and Ground ) the only difference between the UK and US ones, is the input 110v as opposed to 230v but the output is the same.
You could also use standard PC Power Supplies too!
They give out a basic 12-5-0 also, and they are the same, and will drive your ST quite well, in fact far better than an Atari thing would!
All you will need to do, to use a PC PSU, is connect the 12v to 12v, the 5v to 5v, and all the grounds up together!
The STE might have 3 grounds, but have a look on the underside of the PSU, and you will see that they are all connected anyway
