Paid for my tickets yesterday :).
 
I bought a bunch of Indie tunes off of iTunes.

Wolf Parade- Ghost Pressure
Stars- Fixed
Safari- Quicksand
British Sea Power- No Lucifer
- But only because I accendently bought it. I meant to buy:
British Sea Power- Waving Flags- which I did.

Later when I get more money into my iTunes account, I'll go back and complete the albums.

Samsung camera decided it was going to start having hissy fits, so back it went and that's what I've swapped it for. Mmmmm... green...

My mom just bought the same one in red. I was thinking of stealing it from her when she forgets she has it, but there is a lack of manual options. (Unless I'm a derp and couldn't find them) but it's a great camera for whipping out and taking snapshots.

Yeees, that's basically it. I've got a DSLR for taking proper shots - this is just a throw-in-the-pocket-oooh-innit-pretty type thing. To be honest I only chose it because it's a Sony and is bright green :lol:

So freakin' addictive. Looks gorgeous as well (if post nuclear armageddon is your kind of aesthetic).
 
A youth clavicle brace for my 4 year old. We have no idea when but somewhere along the line he broke it. :(
 
So since GT5 isn't too far away I thought about getting a little bit prepared. I've booked two weeks off work and bagged myself some goodies for the drive.

I can't wait! GT5 looks fantastic so I need a new tv. Alot is already here and the rest is due in September. Just realised the PS3 is coming with move too, nice little bonus.

If the Logitech stuff hasn't arrived yet, I've had the Logitech Harmony 880 for a while and more recently bought the Harmony/PS3 adapter and will completely vouch for their quality. Enjoy!

Wal*Mart and Target want $20 for a 6' fiber optic cable.

Monoprice is charging me $24.24 for a 6' fiber optic cable, (2) 5' Cat5e cables, a plug-in to USB power converter, a component cable for the Wii, a USB hub and shipping. 👍

Don't forget the surround sound AV amp and speakers, you don't want to be behind the times (if you don't get this joke check out the PS4 thread!) ;)

BTW awesome purchases 👍 let us know what Move is like

LOL. I read a bit there. Funny stuff
 
Last year of school coming up so I figured I'll get this brick suited up before graduating:

An image of Windows 7-64 running CS5 Design Premium, to which I'll add Rhino 4.0 and a couple Autodesk properties like Alias and likely AutoCAD (part of my tuition is legit access to thousands of dollars worth of software).

One of my friends uses his Harmony One with his PS3, so I can vouch for both being top notch. 👍

The Harmony 1 and PS3 adaptor arrived this morning at 7:30am!!! The postman nocked on my door waking me up from slumber. The quality of the remote is fantastic and very easy to use. Neal I've not read the thread yet so will head over there. On a more serious note I've not bothered with surround sound as I don't have the correct space for it... Yet.

Only need to wait till second week in September for the TV and PS3.

4 of them mounted and balance + front wheel alignment (set total toe to 0.00) = $888 :indiff:

What about a sound bar? This is assuming you haven't cleaned yourself out!

Also Play are selling the 320GB PS3 with GT5 Collectors Edition for £284.99 which saves about £44. Not sure how this compares to the one you've ordered or if you want to wait for the PS3.

Have you noticed when you pick up the remote it lights up? Its awesome! We use it in the loungeroom instead of the 7 remotes and mouse it has taken over.
 
Let the autumn beer drinking commence! It'll all be gone by tomorrow I'm fairly sure of it. Bell's Oktoberfest is one of my favourite brews and I've never had the Sierra Nevada Tumbler before but a buddy of mine said I'd probably like it.

Yeh I thought about a sound bar but I'm going to do a custom install when I move out of the house I'm in at the moment. I will be running the sound through a Denon system but it's only stereo. I ordered the game from play but I need the PS3 earlier than November.

Yeh it's pretty cool, a nice feature especially when it's dark watching a movie.
