Difference US Wii and PAL Wii

[Muck9]

Whats the difference between these 2 consoles?

Are the games Region Free?

No the games are not region free.

I guess the main difference is that the US Wii will be able to run US Gamecube games in 480p where as the UK console will only run PAL Gamecube games in 576i or 480i.
