+1 on the voltage requirements.

That said, what model is your phone and what's the output voltage on the adapter? A/C adapters are $1-2 around local thrift shops here ... that may be even cheaper than a plug adapter.

My phone is an NEC e616, I've had it for the last 4 years. According to the charger the input voltage is 100-240V, while the output is 5.3V.

Well, haven't ran across one yet in the 8 thrift shops I've hit in the past week ... since your adapter is a "worldwide voltage" one, I'm thinking at this poit to just consider a plug adapter.
