Nice iPod nano.

I am still on my iPod shuffle (1st generation)


(I use one, and sold another one)

I had a shuffle; and loved it for jogging. However, I disliked the fact of no screen due to the fact that I have a 10GB music collection. Which is why I plan on sometime in the future getting and iPod Classic but I am limited on money, so I'll take whatever I can get.

Nice iPod. Smile I'm using a second generation shuffle that I've had for over a year. The Shuffle is perfect for me, and it's been incredibly durable. I've accidentally dropped it countless times and it still works perfectly.

Yeah, I had the second one. Mine actually went through the wash a few times; while it was on. Never the less it still worked. I guess that was part of the brilliance behind the simplicity of the Shuffle 2nd generation.

I got an Olympus C-3000Z off Craigslist today. After being outbid for over a week on eBay, I decided to give the classified ads a try, and found someone selling this that lives just down the street.



To Antony, I got it for a meager 6.25% of the original retail price.

My new toy: iPod touch







The 32 GB version, and against popular recommendation - I have it personalised by Apple (aka engraved).

More photos at this blog entry.

Nice new toy! An expensive one too! I don't think I would ever spend more than $600 on an MP3 player. Though I have been thinking about getting a larger capacity iPod, one that could hold all my music at once.

Have you tried watching video content on it? How is the quality? I hope you get a case or skin of some sort for it, otherwise it'll get scratched pretty easily. Crying or Very sad

The screen is not that big for video enjoying I have to say, but the quality is great (assuming the source file is good quality).

I do find the web browsing in amazing quality as of the resizing on text display.

Please I never owned a PDA before, and only played my friend's PDA a few times.

None of these gadgets are necessarily new, but here is my collection of Nintendo portables:



Nintendo DS, Gameboy Advance, and Gameboy Advance SP.

Sorry for the crappy quality (camera phone).





The picture quality over HDMI on the PS3 is simply awesome. I'm downloading a whole pile of demos now, and I'll probably pick up a second controller, Resistance: Fall of Man and maybe a BluRay movie tomorrow.
