I'd rather have a Merc S500. Wouldn't really fit in a handbag, though. A handbag would fit in it, however.

Just got myself one of these:

I havn't really bought too many new electronic gizmo's recently, this year has been kind of a break from technology thus far; my latest purchase being a replacement GT4 for the previous one that got scratched to hell. But I did just buy and install one of these:

I played with my sister's N73 for a while, and I have to say that the menu is more intuitive than her other phone, the Sony Ericsson K800i

IT's finally put up properly! No more on the spare table, it leaves so much more space than my old PC setup.

AarheadC · March 22nd, 2007, 08:32 AM

128mb!? sadly, that's still double the size of mine images/smilies/sad.gif

(although I got it free like 4 years ago)

mautzel · March 22nd, 2007, 08:49 AM

Err - an investment in an USB-Stick shouldn't confront you with much problems nowadays, so go and visit your local dealer! I got a new 1GB stick for ten Euros two weeks ago!

Buba · March 22nd, 2007, 11:28 AM

Yeah, I bought a 1GB one (really small) for 12... The week after they got the 2GB one, same size for 18, and the MediaMarkt had the same as 4GB for 25 images/smilies/sad.gif

I waited ages to buy one, then then I let myself get fucked... Anyway, 1 GB is enough for now... Gonna by a 20GB one in 3 years or so images/smilies/wink.gif

Jacobfox · March 22nd, 2007, 04:19 PM

Yeah... I have two. One of them I got free from a friend in India who had them left over from some Claremont McKenna College promo materials (he's an independent college counselor) and my mother gave me the other.

I have to know what the write speed is on that thing.

CyberMonkey · March 23rd, 2007, 03:26 PM

Especially the "spaceline" makes it sound like at least 50x.

Shadowness · March 23rd, 2007, 06:24 PM

On order

(well everything except the lens, I already have that! images/smilies/tongue.gif

PS3. No pictures as my camera fucked up images/smilies/sad.gif

I can tell you though, its big. And beautiful.

I also heard that 200 people that went to London to Virgin Megastores, got a PS3, a 42" HDTV, and a taxi ride home to wherever they lived in the country. All for the price of a PS3. Lucky bastards.

Blayde · March 23rd, 2007, 07:41 PM

Actually it was a 46 inch TV...

Speedtouch · March 23rd, 2007, 07:53 PM

^Srry. My Bad.

Jacobfox · March 24th, 2007, 08:31 AM

And the germans had a climbing wall set up where sony fanboys could destroy their 360s in exchange for a new PS3. Or at least the first 50 could. But what I find so indicative of how badly the whole launch backfired is that the main Swiss retailer for the product in either Zurich or Geneva (I forget which) had two people come in at the store opening time and buy one. Only two. No lines, nothing at all.

CyberMonkey · March 24th, 2007, 12:01 PM

A Hitach Travelstar of 80 GB, 7200 rpm. Will make quite a difference with my 30 gb 4200 rpm slowass hard disk now (I hope).
And it's so damn tiny. Never knew that portable hard disks were that small images/smilies/smile.gif
