There is definitely a PAL/NTSC incompatibility, and I don't know how modern TVs are equipped to deal with that. About 20 years ago I brought a cheap TV from US to Germany and tried to use it with a transformer. It made a wierd picture for a few minutes, then stopped working altogether and permanently. I don't advise importing one from the US unless you're sure it's going to work.
