^How many guitars do you know that have 5 strings? images/smilies/tongue.gif

5-string bass for sure. Nice-looking axe, should get some better shots of the finish. Who made it?

I couldn't quite make out the photo, it's a bit low-res (camera phone?).

BerserkerCatSplat · September 30th, 2006, 07:58 PM

Yeah, looks like a camera phone shot. You can tell if you click on it and see it at 640X480, it's pretty grainy and has that lack of contrast inherent in phone cameras.

West · October 1st, 2006, 02:58 AM

Yep, taken on my V3, which has the worst camera ever for such a hyped phone.

The bass is an ESP B-155 in Amber Sunburst. It's a five string (well spotted! images/smilies/wink.gif

), so I'm still getting adjusted to the extra low string.

Here's an extra photo I took:

Buba · October 4th, 2006, 08:18 PM

Lilleput, you do know the newer version of that just came out? Nokia 8800 Sirocco Edition? Better camera and most importantly, better Battery life images/smilies/biggrin.gif

... but if you don't mind charging your phone every 1-2 days and a not so good camera, thats a great phone images/smilies/biggrin.gif

mgkdk · October 5th, 2006, 03:56 PM

Finally, ordered this same time as my phone, almost 2 months ago images/smilies/ohmy.gif

It's a phone i got from my job, i wont use it for other than taking calls and making calls, but the short battery life does not sound good.

thats what I heard from 2 friends when I wanted to buy this phone at the beginning of the year... and Battery life is very important to me, but once I hear from people the new one really has a much better battery life, I'm most likely going to get one images/smilies/biggrin.gif

My new toys I bought (second hand) for playing around with.

2 x 150W JB Systems speakers with 1 100W amplifier from JB Systems.

No, they are the most basic mixing cd players you can get from JB... Those cd players you are talking about cost about 1000€ each images/smilies/cry.gif

jimmymac · October 9th, 2006, 05:46 PM

aye nice setup elix, me and a friend have a set of CDJ's between us cos we rujn a mobile disco, can make a nice little bit of extra money out of it..should make around £3k+ over the crimbo period images/smilies/smile.gif

Buba · October 11th, 2006, 12:33 PM

Just ordered new Computer stuff... The 2 shops said everything is availible, so it should be here until Friday or Monday. Most of it is pretty common anyway.

Core2Duo 6300 (plan to run it at a moderate 2 x 2,33 GHz (333x7) or something like it.
Asus P5B (non deluxe -> no raid, but it has spdif out, which will hopefully render my soundcard unnecessary)
1 Gig DDR2-800 Corsair XMS2

Rather special: MSI 7900GTO with 512 MB. Basically a GTX with lowered rates, even though the hardware is exactly the same. Only 230 Euros -> Bargain! And it has a heatpipe -> kinda silent!

http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/9962/v80108938e5adf7cl6.jpg

Will go into a Silverstone LC03 (ATX board with 43cm width -> living room PC...)

http://img245.imageshack.us/img245/5145/gesv0021g10914830nc2.jpg

and will be powered by: Enermax Liberty 400W
I got it because of the brand and the modular cable management. And because of my Girlfriend. Its supposedly unhearable in normal conditions...

Altogether, this should be a pretty silent machine, depending on the fan that comes with the CPU... Maybe I'll need to change that in the future...

Looking at the P5B specs though, it is Raid 0 and 1 compatible because that is exactly what I'm looking at getting as well.

Buba · October 11th, 2006, 04:37 PM

Yeah, it does Raid 0 or 1, but the deluxe ones can do matrix raid and other stuff...
Also, I'm not sure if you can use Raid + any IDE device... I think I read something about that... Dunno... Never gonna use raid... Bought a NCQ-able Seagate SATA drive with it, should be more than enough for my use.

sandor_ · October 11th, 2006, 04:44 PM

nice. are you putting a HD capture card in that?? i have a pair of AverMedia A180's in my HTPC
