Both of them has third pin - they are earthed. But is it necessary to earth the neato dock?
Btw, the cord Neato uses is a fairly standard 3 pin plug design similar to a PC power cable (not identical tho) and any electronics part store would be able to sell you one.
So this cable will be suitable for the xv-11's transformer/charger? Only put it in it and will work without troubles?

I can't see a 3rd pin on the adaptors you posted? aussie ones look like this (yes the Neato PSU needs to be earthed):
yeah, it's called a clover leaf plug, Here is the Aussie Version:
All good gear is grounded imo! In Aus all power points must have the ground pin on them by law but the appliances dont need to however most quality gear does use the ground pin.

In my country it is not restricted as much - grounded socket are a necessity only for appliances which has heating element and are supposed to contact with water (e.g. washers, dryers, dishwashers, coffe makers, etc.) or has the ability to produce positive charges (e.g. PC).
