I splurged on Sokoban for my phone yesterday evening.I love Sokoban; I can play it forever! There is also a free version of Sokoban for phones out there that I had for years, but the new one can import new levels. The interface is not as good as on the old game though. As there are thousands of levels to be found on the Interweb I can now have fun until either me or my phone dies.

Today I splurged on a speaker set for a computer, and an Apple Airtunes thingy:
I put the speaker boxes on the cupboard in the room where I always write, and connected them to the Airport Express. Now I have music in the room where I write! |

Oooh.. O.o Those speakers look spiffy. Were they very expensive? And are they any good? I'm looking for some good speakers to finally bring proper dolby Surround sound that goes beyond two USB speakers standing in front of my screen (they're better than the speakers that are built into the screen, at least) to my computer, now that I have a game like Mass Effect. ^_^ -

I was in need of a new cell phone number and decided to get a new cell phone too (I've had mine for almost 4 years - and things have advanced since then).
Old Phone New Phone I can check email, some of the internet (I haven't fully figured that out), I have the navigator things which rocks all kinds of things (I get lost easily) and I'm sure I can do other things I have yet to figure out. |

Kinky! I have a Nokia that can do all that too. When I bought it I never thought I would use all that, but I do and it's fun.

You just get two guitars, a bass, and a drum kit and play music that has quiet verses and loud choruses with lyrics about unusual topics.

Those Blackberry things are very popular but it just makes my boss check her email when she is on holiday. How sad is that?

Yesterday I splurged on a new digital camera, the Nikon D90, plus two lenses. I ordered it in a shop in Gronau, and since you can buy the camera in most Dutch webshops already I don't think I will have long to wait for it. If I have the thing before Wednesday the tele zoom lens will go on a safari in Tanzania with my brother!

and switched to a real smart phone the Palm Centro. This thing is awesome and I cannot believe how small the apps are for it. I really wanted the HTC's G1 but the only US Carrier who sells it does not have 3G internet in my area so they will not sell it here.Darn thing is exclusive. |
