Or may the version sold on the stateside has limitations as usual. It wasn't the carrier because we were trying to connect to Wifi at home and then at work. It got confused. Have you tried deleting an existing WiFi setup?

It was in May. I had very high hopes for this phone. I blogged about my experience, but did not write down everything. My bad. WWW Link

I got a 1/43rd scale Triumph Spitfire Mk111 which is kinda sad, cos I just gave away [to a mate] my old Triumph Spitfire Mk11 with the Mk111 engine ....[a full size one] ....last registered in 1982.  [looks like I hadn't been using it all that frequently]...

Got a bottle of Elijah Craig Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey and I bought myself the Sirus skin. HO HO HO!


Being in Kentucky and knowing what that is...time to party with you!!!

As for me - nothing techie but I got the coolest star generator that projects on the ceiling - not the cheap one either - and it is complete with shooting stars! Very cool!

I knew I married this woman for a reason...goes well with my fascination of space.

I got my hands on a nice iPod Touch.  Amazing little gadget, I'm already absolutely hooked on it.  Great for watching videos and surfing the web.

  Well, I didn't get all the really neat high-tech goodies that you guys got, but Santa did manage to drop me off a new speaker system for my home recording studio.  



The man kept grumbling about he's @#*$ tired, these are too @#%!* heavy to shove down a chimney and that his @$#%&* reindeers were thirsty!

Is Santa allowed to use that kind of language?

Well if he's been getting away with "ho, ho, ho" for years, I can't see why not.

I wouldn't trust Santa. Anyone who says "Ho ho ho little boys, have I got a suprise for you" is a bit dubious.

Anyway, Santa is just a fat bastard in a red suit... Its doubtful he could get down any chimney...

Yay!! My new monitor finally arrived, 20" HP Widescreen in glossy piano black running at 1680x1050..... mmmmmmmm sweet. This is the first post using it.
Everything looks really different from the fuzzy old CRT monitor, so crisp and sharp.

I'd be really happy if my tooth (or, hole where it used to be) didn't hurt so much. Apparently it's still infected and I have to go back tonight to get it sorted out...... Oh Joy!!

The wife and I bought a 42" Plasma for ourselves.  Other than that, the rest of Christmas was devoted to the kids and family.

I did get some giftcards though, might buy some software I have been looking at.

My wife got me a Logitek pc game controller and Lego Starwars. I know; I'm a little behind times, but hey! It's still fun!

We got our boys light sabers-but I guess those are not really tech gifts, seeing as they are just plastic. Now these would count as tech gifts if they were the real thing!

I got 2 fun tech toys. A pinnacle PCTV HD Ultimate stick. It's one cool little gadget. Handles both ATSC and NTSC signals, it's small, portable and attaches to a USB2.0 port. Will accept antenna, cable or SD video thru an A/V adapter. It appears as both a Flash memory and TV/Audio device to XP and Vista so... no separate CD or DVD to carry. All needed software just auto loads from the stick - easy to setup too. Works great and reasonable in price. The other really fun item was something I sorely needed a Samsung SyncMaster 22" widescreen. Ahhhh!
