Qatar's on 240 50 so dont buy a TV in the US unless it's dual voltage .. not commonly available afaik. We got a sony bravia not long ago for little more than US costs.
PC tech is way out of date and stupidly expensive so definitely bring all that. Books, if you're an avid reader. Hard to get decent literature. The availability of food stuffs is not bad tbh .. just be prepared to cry at the $ cost. I find it horrific mentally working in sterling!
Seems to be a ton of baby stuff here .. both in the local supermarkets and UK highstreet stores such as Mothercare. Unless your hugely brand reliant there wont be anything you need that you cant get.
If you're going to go with furnished then there's no point shipping anything really ... but be advised finding a 2 bed apartment with a decent standard of furnishings and fittings is difficlut a 3 bed is going to put you back 12-15k. That's as much as an UF villa. If you're intending to stay a while I would consider going that route tbh.
Securing your accomodation independently is not an easy task, are you coming out prior to wife and baby?
Im British btw but here with an American ...
