An MSI GTX 560 to replace my 260

 

Got bored. Drove to Toys R Us. Came home with a Nerf Maverick.

I have done the penny mod so far and will probably do the barrel one tomorrow if I get time.

 

A set of swords (Tanto, Wakizashi and Katana)
A couple epic T-shirts
Few volumes of a new manga

Final Fantasy 9 (finally found a decent copy!)

Will post pix of swords sooon as I find where I put my camera....

 

Ornamental flowers for my Mother and Father's graves. Tis the season of remembrance in the US. I miss them both

Audez'e LCD-2

 

Wow. Just Wow!

They are super sexy.


I have also already shot myself in the face with my Nerf gun

 

They look superb [the heat shrink looks a bit cheap tho, in comparison] , clever adjustment method, no budging those while they are on.

*ponders the possibility of laminating his DT100s*

 

£5 bet on Barcelona to beat Man u 3-1 @ 16-1 = £85 in my bank.

 

HTC Wildfire S


Most I'm prepared to spend of a phone, but hey. Hope I like it.

 

4 bottles of Magners and 4 bottles of Pear Magners (it's quite nice).
3 CD boxset of John Mayer (Room for Squares, Heavier Things and Continuum)
Two tubes of Pringles (BOGOF )
A pair of Nike running shorts

A pair of Sidi Vertigo motorbike boots:



Hopefully getting some kevlar jeans and maybe a leather jacket tomorrow too.

 

It's a dark tunnel you're embarking on here... I bought a maverick at Christmas. I now own every nerf branded gun available.

 

I have the plain old wildfire

if im honest im not sure what the difference is

The phone i had before was a nokia with no camera or pictures... or good ringtones

I love the wildfire and im sure you'll love the wildfire s

 

Thanks DP, the difference is a slightly higher res screen, 320x480 instead of 240x320, slightly more juice for the cpu, 600mhz instead of 530 odd, 512ram instead of 384 and a few grams lighter. Not much really. I just figured, for a difference of £35 odd pounds, i'll get the later model.

I'm coming from a Nokia 5250 which is actually not a bad phone for what it is. For some reason though, it constantly requests to connect to the internet via 3g/gprs. I've had to remove the list of connections from the phone to stop it doing it. A shame really as it had built in GPS that you could use in the car to give you directions etc. Does the HTC have something like that? I assume not, and that it just has google maps? My sisters phone, a sony ericsson w100 was having random start up/shutdown/resets etc, so I gave her my Nokia and will be sending the W100 to get service once the HTC arrives. I don't really use a phone much, but felt like owning something a bit nicer. Gave me an excuse to upgrade so.

 

In red... hopefully it does'nt sound **** like i expect luckily its usb unlike the cmoy i was going to buy so thats a bonus i guess

Next stop is brainwavz m2 for a very budget but nice portable setup... however my setup in audophile terms is very basic and mediocre i feel im turning into a audiophile myself

I mean i started with a cheapo curtis 2gb with generic headphones since i have

Amps
Fiio E3
Fiio E5
Hippo Box (Coming soon i hope)

Headphones
Sennheiser HD201 (I know there cheap)
Sennheiser MX570 (or something like that)
Frends true black classics (sound crappy for the price)
Sennheiser CX300 (Almost dead)
Brainwavz M2 (Coming June 17th )

Htc Wildfire (Spotify Premium)
Creative Zen X-fi 8Gb + external 2gb

Various interconnects

 

I actually find the Google Navigation app works rather well. However, my HTC also came with an app called 'Locations'. It can be used for GPS navigation, and the maps for it are stored on the phone/memory card so you can turn internet off while using it if you like, although you seem to need an internet connection for the initial destination setting and route calculating.

 

definitely agree with you there, but i must point out its a picture of a older model, latest version has a much better cable (see pic below)

 

Yep, that's much tidier. Are they some kind of mini XLR? Pretty substantial connection!

 

it is indeed a mini-XLR.
