    Ummmmm, ive been my usual pain in the arse and not asked for anything and let people guess...truth is i dont know what i want!

    Although i have just treated myself to a 22" hp w2207 second hand from a colegue for £90! its only a few months old... it was getting depressing working with my 24 incher at work and going home to my washed out 19"

    back of the net!

    Its even more noticable if you go form 19" widescreen to a 22" wide screen like i did at work...the manufacture of 19" wide screens should be banned ...frekin useless things!

    I want someone to make an affordable, reasonable big non-widescreen. The highest res can find it 1600*1200 and they are silly expensive. Shame the trend is towards wider and shorter screens - I spend most of the time on my computer looking at stuff that works best on narrow screens.

    Do we have a "what have you got people for Christmas" thread? I prefer giving presents to receiving.

    To change my original post, it looks like a Nokia N810 is actually what is on the way for me!

    I have no idea what I'm getting though the other half and I agreed on items which don't take up lots of space and can be used frequently so it'll most likely be Blu-Ray's :D
