I'll be jumping at the Nexus S. I think it fixes most of the major complaints I've had about the N1 and I'm not concerned too much about the plastic - if anything it should improve reception.
Got a tip for us?

I'm 16, bought it all except the TV which was a christmas present.
^ you should be proud of your minorityi love it if a girl has a liking for tech especially Apple stuff.
and i really do like your setup nice table. oh and open your trackpad dammit!
Thanks!
The cat says: Relieve stress, take a prayer break! Thank you.
I also have no one to talk to! Hence why I'm on here.
I have the same laptop stand. I see you're using it differently though-- do you tuck your keyboard underneath when you're not using it?
Thanks!
Thank you.

Nice to see someone else has their desk as uncluttered! I can't stand even a single stray piece of paper on mine. And I'm wiping it down every few days too. Have you tried the trackpad yet? I bought one, but put it back in its box after a week. I missed the magic mouse.
I don't use it like I should anymore since I wall mounted my monitor. I ask for a MStand for Christmas which will be more appropriate!
Here's my setup (iPhone pic):
As you can see, most of the furniture is from Ikea (desk, bookcase, lamp). The chair and filing cabinet are from Staples. Monitor is a 24" Dell with Bose 3 SII speakers.

Nice Clean set up, Same speakers Ive got, nice sound, and the Monitor, very similar to the 2209wa ive got on a MP, like the colour contrast between desk and monitor and speakers, my 8 year old desk needs renewing it's kn@ckered (few holes in it) that was from Ikea, might look at a darker one now after seeing yours
^ Thanks. The dark colors are a bit of a pain for dust, but when it's clean I love the look. If you're interested in Ikea items, definitely get this for cable management. It's great not having any cables visible under the desk.

My very simple set up. Sorry for the poor quality picture. My dad is actually borrowing most of my set up for his Mac Mini media server. I don't think he is going to buy accessories until I take mine back.
Here's my very unorganized setup right now. I just moved from California back to Oklahoma with my parents while I'm waiting to go with National Guard unit to Afghanistan. This was my hasty setup until I leave. The TV is propped up on a folder because it doesn't fit in between the edges of the desk. The wires are a mess on the mini because there's no outlet on the back. My Time Capsule is on top because their no room on the bottom. I'm not proud of it, but it's working for the moment until I return from the deployment, go back to college, and my girlfriend moves out with me from California.

My simple setup. Mac Mini under the desk acts as a print- and file server.
I am intrigued. How do you manage the Mini? Do you hook it up to a monitor, or remote desktop it?
Funny you mentioned that, I am OCD. I am constantly "dusting" the area.
Tried the trackpad for a month, it was too hard on my wrist when pressing on it to copy and paste. I am thinking about selling it. I miss my magic mouse too.
Very nice! But with black, can you see a lot of dusts? You probably don't have much since you have no carpets in there. The black looks really nice though.
^ Thanks. Like a car, black always looks sharp when it's clean. Yes, the dust can be annoying, but I vac/swiffer every few days, so it stays at a manageable level. Ideally I'd go for a ligher desk (or glass with an iMac as there are few wires, though fingerprints would probably drive me nuts), but this was the best option available.
This is my 27" iMac and 15" Macbook Pro along with my desktop and peripherals.
Your wall colors look familiar!

And my Not-So-Clean set up. Finals week took a toll on my desk. Only thing that isn't pictured is my 13" MBP. I'm selling the desktop to get a 27" Display for my MBP.

That picture could literally be from like 2003 or something. Does it still suits your needs?
I'd say this proves that if you treat your tech well, it'll last you a long time. GREAT.

how are those Bose Companion 3 speakers?
