Finally got some skull candy in ear phones - must say I am not that impressed. Perhaps I am doing something wrong but the cable motion causes a lot of "noise" in your years. I know it is those rubber tips - I am going to try the smaller ones today.

2 other sets of in ear phones (one hands-free with remote control and mic for my phone)

Blutooth accessory kit / speaker for the car
RDA Tuner
and some other more romantic type gifts

Very very much. Going up table mountain this weekend and go take some pics. Good thing I read up on aperture/iso etc. Almost figured it out in 3 hours. Didn't even touch manual.

Well done - post the pics soon. And enjoy.

Took the radio back - remote didn't work. Swapped it for this

Also curious to know!

The kit lenses. 18-55 and the 55-200mm
Thinking of something faster f2.8 or even 1.8 for wide angle shots. If I only had more money. Photography is even more expensive than PC gear.

You can say that again.

Nice camera

Btw a large aperture (eg. f1.4. or f1.8 ) has nothing to do with how wide your angle of shot is. The large aperture lenses are mainly used for low light conditions and/or extremely narrow depth of field.
Lens width is measured in mm, your 18-55mm is pretty wide, but if you're looking for a really wide angle lens then the Nikon DX 10-24mm is probably the one to get if you've got a spare bag of money somewhere

Anyway back on topic..

I know...should have phrased it better. Wanted a wide angle that is fast as well. Was thinking of something more affordable like this one.

Bought an apartment. Will be transfered to my name this month.

LG Express cool Fridge
LG Washing Machine

Word of advice: Stay away from Defy. within a month of being out of warranty, both fridge and washing machine packed up, so I opted for LG!

Corsair TX750watt PSU for my old system-complete overkill for a C2D and 250GTS but it's good for my upgrade to come. 60 amps and a 5 year warranty baby!

@Synthesis I loved my moms LG washing machine-it was awesome! 2 buttons pressed and it was doing my colours. Also felt nice and had the nicest bong ever. People laugh at me when I say that but right now my parents own a Boche and it sounds awful.

They're awesome aren't they.
I went for the C6500 because I wanted the built in wireless

Spent ages last night watching trailers - the quality from youtube is not bad at all. Even has Sudoku
