Remember my phone that died out on me last December? Got it fixed last December, minus the 3 1/2 years worth of contacts and messages saved in the phone’s memory. X_x Though, it may have been a ‘mix’ blessing in disguise, mix in a sense I have to shell out a few more thousand cold hard cash to purchase a new phone. Hahaha! ah well, though the new phone is also what I really wanted. A new Nokia E51 business phone… the price was not even that high! Would have picked the Ericsson K850 but the price tag was too much, 20k+ (ouch!).

Now to the specs… “candy bar” style, silver color scheme, aluminum frame and casing, 130mb build-in phone memory, expandable to 4gig ( 512mb was included though, not bad ), 3g hspda ready, 2mp camera, pdf reader, mp3 player, radio station tuner, doc and excel reader, personal assistant, sms reading software (reads your text messages loudly) and the best of all.. Wifi ready!!

Now I also got a few gadgets that will go nicely with the new gaming system at home.

A new Logitech G7 gaming mouse!! Response time is superb! No delays whatsoever, unless you can detect a few millisecond. It came with 2 hot-swap batteries, use one while the other is charging.

Another Logitech toy, a Logitech LX710 Wireless Keyboard… The design is simple and slick with the build-in palm rest, I have nothing but praises for this keyboard! Wireless and LOTS of programmable buttons and short-cut keys!! Key-press delays are minimal to nonexistent… well considering also I’m slow at typing. I’m already typing this blog using the keyboard on my lap. =D

Note: These were three different purchases, at three different dates since my cash reserves would not allow the purchase of three items at the same time =9

For my other hobby… a Revoltech Fraulein Rei Ayanami figure, articulation is great and the painting is even not half bad considering the size of this toy!

Still waiting for the Shuraki Box 1 Akatsuki to arrive but I can wait while playing with my new gadgets ^_^

Also acquired a new watch, a ThinkGeek 2gig flash-drive/watch =) Not bad at all… though the strap is kinda long. Makes me think this was made for Americans =p

A costly New Year… but I’m Happy! =p~
