^^^Gotta love Ralph's!

I get 10¢ off every gallon when I fill up.


I bought this for Mac and the iPhone. It's really cool to be able to use the iPhone as a remote for the game.

It's a little cheesy that I had to buy the iPhone app to use it as a remote but, meh, it's 99¢.

Just got this and Angry Birds for Mac. Haven't touched Chopper 2 yet. Is it good?

Just picked up a set of Sennheiser HD 418 headphones. I don't use my speakers anymore so I thought I would get some half decent headphones. Got them for $70, they were $100 :)
They sound pretty good, almost overkill with bass though but i'll get used to that, I'm used to the headphones included with iPods...

100 of these:

Polythene record sleeves.

As I've just bought this:

Rega RB250 tonearm + Michell Tecnoweight + Ortofon VMS 20e MkII

All to go on this:



Sounds fantastic from here at the moment, although I think I'll upgrade the cartridge to something slightly brighter when the need arises...

Bought myself a MacBook Pro about 2 weeks ago. Yesterday I bought myself a new 40" Samsung 1080p LCD TV, and a Samsung BluRay player.

They're basically Christmas presents from me to me. ;)

thats nothing, i had to pay 2.08$ per litre! thats 7.87$ per gallon!
its a new record for the last 10 years or so as far as i know in Denmark.

Yeah, but considering that MOST everyone here in the US drives "land barges" instead of small fuel efficient cars it probably works out to the same overall cost.

Really nice!

Got the bag for a great deal too! Retails for $200, got it for $130! Thanks! I am actually thinking of downgrading and downsizing my camera gear again. I have a lot of superfluous m4/3 gear, and I am looking forward to having about ~$400 extra bucks in the bank.

Looking to go from this:

Rega's sound fantastic. I've heard that table and a Rega P7 (both with Rega arms) and they produce some great music.

EDIT: I was trying to recall what cartridges were used, but I can't seem to remember.

Any particular reason you're going from the GF1 to the E-P1? Sorry, I don't know much about M4/3, but I'm really interested in getting one. :)

One in the bedroom, one in the kitchen, front room stereo hooked up through an appleTV, music all over the house, all streamed from my iPhone :D

Nice! I have one in the living room, another in the bedroom, updated my Denon receiver for Airplay this morning....I now realize my kitchen also needs one.:). I use my iPad for the remote.

Satechi B4 Bluetooth interface. Has a line-in to my AUX input, allows bluetooth A2DP music and phonecalls on my iPhone 4. Works Great.

Have you owned a DSLR before your 4/3s? I'm looking to replace my D40 for something a little more new and small - like a Nex-5. I'd like to ear your experience if you've own a dslr thanks!

The GF1 is a great camera. I love that thing to death! Has better overall performance than many competitors on the market in the m4/3 arena. However, I am missing some of the great art filters you can find on the oly cameras, and the in body image stabilization...really miss that. I also look forward to getting some cash for other things. The GF1 is almost twice the cost of the EP1.

Yes I have owned a D40, D40x, D80, D90, D200. Not in that order haha. Personally I LOVE the m4/3 format. GREAT IQ on the go, and a great feature set for a street shooter/food shooter/item shooter like myself. I love the D40, but the size of the m4/3 format is so much nicer for very quick snaps on the go without sacrificing too much IQ. You also get to use some very high quality glass. The current lenses out there are very good, and various adapters will let you use almost any lens.

Picked up a Nespresso Citiz, heard nothing but good things and I spend a fortune at Starbucks so I decided to check it out, anyone else have one?

Have you used it yet? Let us know how it works out, since I too spend a decent amount of money at starbucks. Out of curiosity, did you get the aeroccino frother as well?

EDIT: It appears that it comes with one attached? If that is what the cylinder on the side it.


Got these.

Nasty.
EDIT: As in cool.


PS- Gas is currently 3.36 a gallon here.
