I bought this...

... but I absolutely hated the size, so I returned it and opted for...

It might not be the better of the two, but, once I switch out the Joystick, it'll be almost the same thing.

All in all, I still prefer the Fightpad, but there's literally not one Xbox version to be found in Canada.

Nice.. What do you think of it? What stick are you going to use to mod it? I've read that the one you bought is easier to mod than the Hori EX 2, its only competition at that price point.
The other option is to go with the FightPad, but I prefer a real joysitck for Street Fighter. :D

YEAH! I love having things nobody else will ever have. A MacBook Pro was a bad choice I guess. :p

I have a couple Air Max 90s and 360s and then some dunks and 6.0s / sbs which are sort of hard to find. Then there are some eS skate shoes that I have which don't exist anywhere!

These are $175 TT Delux. Design won't be found anywhere else!

Sad thing is I love shoes but I only wear about 15% of my "collection." My closet doesn't even have room for boxes anymore :D

Not my pair here but these are also "one time only" shoes I own.
Nice man! :D My collection isn't very big, as I just buy shoes when I need them (usually when I mess them up :eek: or as I'm still growing, when I outgrow them) but the nikes are my first shoes that have loads of colours on, no doubt they'll end up like all my others which just get ruined though :( Ah well, just an excuse to buy another pair! :D

I'm grabbing the Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT Joystick with an 8 Gate (I absolutely HATE the square gate, it's not even that good for charge characters), and than I'm going throw in some Sanwa buttons when I find the the right ones/colours.

So far though, it's a fantastic Joystick, and all I need.

May I ask how on earth it managed to do that?

For starters, Windows Mobile.

Second of all, the keyboard is actually usable.

It also feels rather nice in your hand, as the back isn't glossed to an inch of it's life. I generally like the feel of the phone, and it does everything I need it to (not tell me where the nearest pizza shop is, or something - but instead, just the useful things like, internet browsing, email and so forth).

Ah, and of course the contract is bloody brilliant. Given that I generally don't text , and call people when it's important - it's more than enough for me. I pay a fiver a month, I get fifty texts and fifty minutes. That is literally more than enough for me. I also get GPRS internet access - and though it's not 3G, I've not had any issues with it.

So it suits me perfectly. I also think it looks rather nice, though, each to their own I suppose.

Don't get me wrong, the iPhone does indeed look nice, and I understand that it fits peoples needs - but not everyone's. Some people like a hard keyboard, and some people just like different (and better, in my opinion) software.

My new car. I didn't plan on buying today, but they had a Silver (which isn't available in Canada except for the S) and got the price I wanted. :cool:

They're cute cars, I sort of want to go test drive one of them. How do you like it? :)
