...My simple 2 TB external drive isn't cutting it anymore. :P

Plus I'd like to have some redundancy. :)

I think that's too good to be true. Maybe it's fake. Either way, I don't think you'll be able to tell the difference in sound, even genuine Beats aren't that great, and are definitely not worth 410 chf (In switzerland).
MOAR BAZZ ≠ better sound quality.

On topic:

I bought a Golf III dashboard. For my racing cockpit. :D

Yeah I think they are fake but I like them to be honest bassy and loud, so I dont mind, my mates pair one ear doesn't work, so its confimed a suspision, and the sticker is at a slight angle on one of the headphones.

SlipLock™ Pouch 60 AW

You can attach the latter one to the first one, in order to carry your flash etc.

Figured that I neither need nor want to carry my big and sturdy Lowepro backpack with me if I'm just casually walking through the city...hell, I'll look like some sort of amateur tourist now. The tripod in my left hand will hopefully help a little bit. :(
 
Been using my SCOSCHE flipSYNC Keychain USB 2.0 Sync and Charge dongle for the last two days. The top slot holds onto the USB connector loosely with small plastic tabs. But not too loosely where it will not fall out during carry and while being subject to everyday use with the car keys. While the adapters below are very secure being held with plastic tabs and require a little pressure to pull out. If anything the cables don't look like they were meant to be able to hold heavy weight. The Scorsche brand makes some decent gadgets but I've seen wires rip before on one of their FM Modulator products.
 
I have Far Cry 2 as well, Im never going to play Far Cry 1 as I have no time too, but it was only 2$, and now I can say I have it...

^ I'm in need of a new tent, also. Difference being I have an awesome 2 person tent (~10 year old Hillary, full rainfly, attached poles, etc.) and am looking for something to comfortably fit the four of us. My wife wants a camper of some sort.

*waits for the Brits and their anti-caravan ways*

I do try. :D

And so far she's happy with it. Which means I'm happy with it.

Check out the Vango Tigris 600. I probably won't be going camping with the family for another 2 years but it's the tent I'll be getting when I do.

EDIT: Turns out Vango doesn't have distribution in USA! After a quick look the only similar tents I can find are theses Coleman 6 man and 10 man tents but they're BIG! The good points about the Vango Tigris are it's a tunnel tent so it's easy to put up even on you own and has good head room throughout the living area and the bed rooms are at either end so you're further away from the kids...and therefore the noise :lol:

Also camper van (or RV) = cool, caravan towed behind Rover 400 = not cool ;)

Glad the missus is happy with the motor 👍

Last major things I bought were a new Sandy Bridge setup (i5 2500K, 8GB RAM, Asus P8P67, 2TB HDD) and a Voigtlander 50mm f1.5 Nokton for my M4 (which I just picked up from servicing - it hadn't been serviced since it first left the Leica factory in 1967, it's silky smooth now):

Sony Xperia Play

I got it early this morning, and I love it. That's all I really have to say about it at this point, but I'm sure I'll just keep loving it more and more over time.
 
because I love cheap shoes that I can beat the crap out of for a summer or 2 without worrying about the cost

:drool:

Looking good but I actually hate that sort of bags. :D
Oh, ok.

It's actually the only way I like to carry my camera around (I don't use a strap). It's very quick and easy to reach it and also exchange lenses on the fly.
 
I snagged a Kevin Harvick #29 Pennzoil Chevrolet Impala SS 1:43 scale Nascar today for 2 dollars. Will post some pics shortly.
 
Bought this USB 3.0 2.5" hard drive enclosure off of ebay for $24.00.

Got it to replace my hot-swappable Ineo enclosure which died recently. Also picked up the SIIG since it was one of the few USB 3.0 drives that you can hot swap 2.5" hard drives with.
