is the phone any good watto? I was thinking of changing to it but the fact that samsungs cannot vibrate and ring at the same time still annoys me alot, is it the same for the Z510?

The Z510 can ring and vibrate at the same time. I just double checked to make sure I wasn't leading you astray :p It's quite a vigorous vibrate, maybe we'll see some girls strapping it to the inside of their legs :wicked:

Yep, it's 14.9mm thick/thin, insanely thin compared to the T630 I replaced it with. 2.2" (diagonal) TFT LCD screen which is amazingly clear, the camera is only 1.3MP but that doesn't concern me, I hardly use them, although it is very sharp. The buttons are nice to push as well, easy layout to navigate around.

then I'm pretty sure this would be my next phone, the thing that annoyed me with previous samsungs are that they either ring or vibrate... my V3x is getting annoyingly thick after using my L6 for 2 weeks so far in HK
 
New U2 iPod

I don't like U2 all that much, but I like the color scheme. The back is much better than the normal mirror-finish, it's sort of a smoke finish. I already bought a Lajo skin and screen protector.
 
Yeah, sold my video iPod. Overpriced in my opinion.....

I sold my old U2 iPod (bought in Nov 2004) for a nice $215. You do have to admit the iPod has a pretty good resale value, at least compared to Creative or iRiver.

It was refurbished so got a good deal which is good because I didn't feel like spending too much, I'm finding it better than my normal computer.
 
Nice, enjoy it!

Holy crap. Impressive specs, but I guess I would rather buy a car with that money :shock:

How much did it cost?

HP iPaq HX4700 (624MHZ, 4" VGA screen)

Love the little bastard, great for checking my photos during a shoot, among other things. (Like watching Top Gear, for instance.)
 
My Lian-Li pc-101b arrived from Germany today (caseking.de). Terrific case (that's why I bought it in the first place) but they should get some better translators (as is mostly the case with those rather small Asian companies):

"Design to be cool" on the box (maybe some kind of poetic freedom, but I highly doubt that)
"aluminum", "out-frome", "to dress up the look of sth", "compatible with most of case", "block color"... :)

Luckily they didn't have to include a big manual :)

Pics later on when I assemble my hardware in it.
I received an Arctic Freezer 64 pro too, and a Zalman passive chipset heatsink. Silence will be mine!
 
My Alienware laptop, no I mean desktop! Doh.

damn... PDA's processor's are getting fast these days, I remember my XDA IIs with 400Mhz was lightning fast about 1.5 years ago when I bought it :lol:
 
I love gadgets, I used to have this Creative MP3 player until I dropped it 2meters directly on concrete. It cost me a pretty penny (AU$400), and repairing it would have been just as bad.

So I replaced it with the iRiver PMC-120. And in comparison this was MUCH cheaper for what it is. ($255 [eBay])

The Creative is now 3 years old, just, and that iRiver has only just stop being made. Both are 20gb but one plays videos and runs Windows (iRiver) and the other is just plain (Creative).

Have you guys also noticed this huge change in the past couple of years in pricing with new technologies?

You should've known dude, Alienware is only known for their overpriced buttugly shiny plastic cases.
Mac will be so much better :) But not that good for gaming though...
