The "New Toys" Thread

[Some_Guy]

Just got a new phone after finding out early mornings, coffee and phones doesn't go together the hard way

...and now I'm not sure if I want to keep it or sell it an get a Nokia 6220

 

[IceBone]

I hate these useless keyboards with the mini keys that you have hunt with your finger nails, what the hell is wrong with full keys?

 

[Thomas93]

IceBone that phone worked better for me than I expected, to me it was more like the "chiclet" style keys you get on laptops with room between each key.

Bringing light to the darkness...finally bought myself a proper flashlight. Geocaching in the dark is a lot more fun with this one

 

[thevictor390]

No, this is a proper flashlight:

(just kidding, looks like a nice flashlight. I need to try geocaching some time)

 

[NecroJoe]

No, this is a proper flashlight:

I'm sorry, I can't hear you over the awesomeness of my flashlight! (15,000,000 candlepower)

(for scale, its platform is a 14" 4:3 laptop)

You could get a tan with either of those just by standing near it!

I plan on picking up another terabyte hard drive today.

As I work at a gaming store...you have no idea how right this comic is... I just want to shoot them.

 

[Paddy]

Yeah, we don't have that here thankfully. Most people don't even know what NFL is !

 

[Topgearfanatic]

It's going in as soon as I finish eating.

I'm slightly lost for words at the genrosity of a fellow head-fier.

Now though, I need to save up some money for an energizer.

You could say that about every audiophile-grade headphone though

True. My JVC HA-RX700s are enormous and dorky but I love them.

No they don't look dorky at all, I love the design.
