[ 1235. Wishlist Updates ]

I need NEW gadgets.

First up, handphones!

I was thinking of getting an n70 some time back, but i realized that it's getting shamelessly common. In fact, i'd love to get an n80, but at that price, it's virtually out of my range. Aesthetically, it ain't that pleasing as well... much as i love classy phones like the n80, it's a lil too bulky for me. And i guess like all other classy gadgets i used to have, i never fail to scratch them within the first month. so nokia, you're out.

So i'm actually eyeing the w700i & w800i. w800i's the better model, albeit it's the older one. w700i doesn't come with autofocus and synchro with apple, among other unimportant functions. Size-wise, both are similar. And i've actually very much prefer white with orange rather than titanium gold with orange, even though eric told me that the w700i looks very classy. When i was doing aa06 earlier this year i was actually deployed with darren just before i left for my bangkok trip. And i was playing with his w800i, and i was sooooooooo tempted to get one at that time. But well, there was still a long way for my contract, so i decided to just wait it out. And frankly, i doubt i can find w800i that easily on the market now, unless you're talking about the 2nd-hand market.

And i should be getting a macbook instead of the acer w3022 that i was eyeing. Let's compare some specs here:
