I've been meaning to post this for a while, but I've been delaying it... eh, whatever. My (not so new anymore) printer, which my mom gave me about a month ago, an HP Photosmart C4200 Series:

My new digital camera I bought last Friday.

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H9

Quick specs of Sony Cyber-shot DSC H9:
8.1 MP, 15x optical zoom (up to 30x combined), ISO range: 80 - 3200, shutter speed: 30 sec - 1/4000 sec and Aperture range: F2.7 - F8, 3.0" (7.5cm) LCD.

The camera has 31 MB internal memory. I bought a 2GB Memory Stick PRO Duo at the same time.

One interesting feature: Full HD 1080 format photo, 1920 x 1080 (16:9 HDTV aspect ratio). I no longer need to crop photos to 16-by-9 ratio in Photoshop Elements. The world is moving to wide-format display.

Cost of the camera: AU$ 795. And no, I am not rich.

New mobile phone today!

Okay, so not really. AT&T's dropping their AMPS service, so I needed to buy a new phone that runs on a digital network. The Motorola v60i came in AMPS (right), GSM (left), and CDMA, so I picked the GSM version up off eBay.

To Antony: the phone cost $24, unlike Antony's expensive Ericsson K750i and T610.

I got a new toy today. Very Happy

It's a 40" Sony Bravia LCD TV. It's got all sorts of connectivity options: VGA, S-video, Component, Composite, HDMI etc. Watching DVDs and playing games on a TV this size with full 1080P resolution is simply stunning. Perhaps some of you have heard of Sony's recent promotion: Buy a 1080P LCD TV and get a free Playstation 3. I can't wait until the free PS3 arrives (they mail it out), I imagine playing Blu-Ray movies on a TV like this will just be awesome.

(FWIW, the table is only a temporary home for the TV - I need to get a new cabinet or stand for it. Smile
