Traveling to South Africa

Hello all! I am traveling to South Africa for two weeks and I wanted to get some advice from people who have been there and since there are all kinds of peple here I hoping someone here might be able to help.

I want to take my laptop, primarily to watch movies on the flights and possibly to check email, but I have heard that the country is not really "wireless" yet and internet connections are dial-up. So I do not know if it is worth it to take the laptop given security concerns and having to transport it everywhere. And of course, I am not even sure it will work on their electric currency.

Also, I will need to get adapters for appliances like hair dryer and camera battery charger--it seems that South Africa outlets are completely different from those in Europe and other parts of Africa. Is this accurate?
