Some stuff taken from my last stay in Japan in September... I bought also some boards at Mak-Japan and G-Front that I will upload in the near future...

Now I am in the hunt for one Aero city or any other tiny cabinet with a 25/26'' monitor or smaller

I've been enjoying the RC truck I bought this Summer, but since you really can't run the nitro-powered ones during the Winter all that well, I got a small electric one to go with my Revo:

Image

It's a 1/16th scale E-Revo VXL, which is basically a smaller electric version of my big 1/10 (actually closer to 1/8th) scale truck. It has a brushless motor that can get the thing up to 50 miles per hour when you use two batteries in series. Mine's the blue one, and the red one belongs to my brother. Unfortunately I managed to break a suspension arm roughly 20 minutes after I started using it, but it's relatively easy to replace.

Purchase these and still trying to break them in. I don't even own an AMP/DAC unit and these headphones are already making a world of difference when it comes to my music/movies.

Asus O!Play. Got it to replace my WDTV player because it has DTS Downmixing...but it doesn't seem to handle it very well :\ Not sure which one I should keep. Audio is definitely worse on the Asus.

After two days of use, a veredict: if you need a mouse, I do NOT recommend the one I got. The ergonomics are quite bad. :(

If you live near an FYE they give you a poster with a pre-order on Ponyo. The manager at the one near me gave me four of them because he didn't think anyone else was going to pre-order. I'd send one to you but I already gave the others away :( .

Got some new t-shirts from 6dollarshits.com (animated gif link->): http://www.pici.se/489998/?size=fullsize

They ended up more like 13 dollar shirts though thanks to international shipping and customs. :evil:
