Everyone says that it's region free, but the two games that I have for it both have a "region 4" icon on the back. Interpret as you wish...

picked up a gopro hero 3 black for $250 plus a memory card from best buy..
Don't know if i'm going to keep it not? After all the deals I could get a 3+ black for about $130 more... thoughts

Decided to add a few more films to my bluray collection. Some I already own as normal dvd's, but since buying my new Panasonic Plasma Im keen to upgrade certain films to bluray...

If you don't mind me asking, but what would you be using it for?
The reason I ask is because i've been itching to get a Go Pro since the summer and haven't allowed myself to pull the trigger, because I don't really know what i'd even record, haha
I mean, I do active things, but watching me ride my bike for 50 miles on a path doesn't exactly seem like exciting footage.
A Parker 91R Heavyweight Safety Razor. I hear these give the best shave over your typical 3 and 5 blade razors. Plus the blades are dirt cheap. I'm aware there's a bigger risk of cuts and nicks. But from what I've been reading, once you get the hang of it, it doesn't happen often.
I work in broadcast so I would use it as a b camera for wide shots or other creative shots as a cut away camera. Then in the summers I work at a teen travel camp where we go hiking, white water rafting, water/amusement parks etc. and because of my background besides watching the kiddies, i also do the photos/videos.
If your unsure best buy has the hero 3 black on sale for $250 (where I got mine) normally now they go for 330.
one of my favorite movies! They need to release Ghostbusters 2!

Ha, guess I should've updated: turns out I made a mistake. The sportmaxx are not that good, the sportmaxx RT were the ones I wanted (but due to confusion got the regular ones) so returned them and got Bridgestone Putenza S001. Fitted on my Audi A3 - which is an awesome car, by the way - and the tires perform beautifully! They are very quite (compared to my old Hankook, anyway), grip is excellent on wet & dry, braking distance has improved, the car stops almost instantly (and slowing down from.... erm... high speeds
is very steady and even) and accelerates from full stop very nice indeed. Only down side is, I understand they wear out a bit fast, but considering everything else, it's ok with me.
I own one and love it. Takes longer than a battery powered one, but it works much better. Plus, it will last forever.
I ordered it online. I was shocked at how small it is, but yes it works well, and since it's so small it's extremely portable and I don't have to worry about a battery dying.
I've owned a couple of electric trimmers over the years and they are large and I always run out of batteries when I need it the most.
Double edged shaving is so much better than the usual 3 & 5 blade razors. Ive been using a Merkur razor for the last two years and I think its brilliant. Ive tried many different blades but have settled on two favourites - Gillette 7 O'clock yellows and Feather blades.
They give a much smoother shave, and allow you to shave much longer stubble than 5 blade razors, meaning I don't have to first shorten the stubble with my hair clippers any more. But be warned, DE shaving will draw you in and you'll soon be wanting to try different blades, shaving creams etc
I'm so tempted to give that phone a shot and truly compare the two. I've never wanted to switch to the dark side but would like to see the differences in daily use.

My old flatmate in Gibraltar got 'drawn in'.
Had me ordering him stuff from the US after a few months of one of those. didn't take long and he was onto the hard stuff (cut throat) and buying multiple stones and strops etc - its bizarre how much investment men can make into shaving. (I think one of his finest grain stones was about £100 or so!)
So far I'm loving it. I usually will get the "in" android phone each year as well as the new iPhone just to compare and this one doesn't disappoint.

Thanks man. I'll have mine on monday. I'll be super careful and get the feel of DE shaving. Hopefully I don't cut myself up too badly. Are Shark Super Chrome's good blades?
BTW, I normally shave everyday, but I'm letting my beard grow till Monday to test out the new shaver..

Sent you a private message buddy.
Might have to invest in this. Hate the sneezing and watery eyes from plucking. It doesn't rip out hairs?
It wont as long as you keep turning the blades while removing it from your nose. I've had mine for about a year now and I think it's the best trimmer out there.
Had decided to wait until Christmas but then I ended up pulling the trigger, guess Christmas came early this year
