I took a couple outdoor shots today (seriously, two shots, as that's all it holds...) and was pretty impressed with the clarity of the trees at full zoom. A little bummed that the stock battery does not have the infoLithium feature, so no battery life countdown.

I've only took about 2 pictures on mine,usually always have my canon with me.

My battery is the stock one and I have a how much is left countdown?
 
Driving force GT & GT5P :D

Hope you didn't pay more than £75 for the wheel. Just noticed that both Play and Amazon have them at this reduced price now.

I'll check again later, but I don't remember it showing that. Just the typical battery image with a number of bars showing the charge level.

Edit: Actually, just looked at the stock battery (sitting in the charger) and it does not say infoLithium on it. That's the name of the batteries that do. You are meaning a battery life countdown, not how many pictures are left on the memory stick, right?

I did:lol:. I saw the offers the other day but I was too impatient to wait for it to be delivered, so I bought it from Argos for a bit more instead. Stupid I know, but I just wanted it now.:dopey:
 
And I may as well throw this in here too. HP w2408h, my brother owed me some money so I ended up with his screen. Yea boy, getting ready for GT5!!!

That's what that screen is for.

Indeed, but they then suck if you need to pan a shot and often can't be seen if the sun is right behind you.

Many would argue that a viewfinders for taking the picture and the screens for review.


Scaff
 
My laptop died on Friday afternoon, so I've bought this: (with the help of a friend with a £170 discount.) :D

2.1Ghz Athlon 64 X-2
3GB DDR2
64-bit Vista (I will get a 64-bit Windows 7)
500GB HDD
 
I actually purchased it 6 weeks ago, but by the time it was made and delivered it only arrived yesterday.

I now have something in my new house to sit on, ohhhh yeeaahhhh. Picture is not that great, but it's 'Salsa Red' and genuine suede. Though I think it's almost about half a seat too big, have to do some room rearranging. Drain.
 
Late to the party.. :S CS:S was great but since it has been tweaked and died a bit... The game will still be fun for the average player.

Considering I've still been playing 1.6 till just recently... Just nice to now have the option to hop online with friends of mine when they play Source.
 
Huh? You can pay bills through the post? Which century do you live in?
My water company, for some unfathomable reason, is the same way. No automatic withdrawal, no online bill payment, no pay by phone, just mail it in or drop it off. Very often we wind up using the night drop box because we forget until the last minute.

Exactly.




I saw this at Gamestop yesterday (new, even!), realized that I didn't have it, bought it, played it for ten minutes, realized why I didn't have it at that point, went back to playing GTAIV:

Oh well. Might as well keep it for my collection.

Define died because it remains the 2nd most played game on Steam along with 1.6 right behind it. MW2, unsurprisingly, is first.

My electric company has auto-pay, they just charge an extra $5 a month for it. I can't justify paying that much when it costs 44 cents and 30 seconds to mail it.
 
$300 for a belt? That better be one damn good trouser holder.

It's not exactly that one. That appears to be belly skin of the 'gator; mine is made from a section between the navel and the tail, and so the scale pattern is quite tighter. It's also not quite as bright as the color there.

As for trouser holder, I hope so—the buckle alone is worth $60. On another note, got this for my mum.
