Bought this, plus a leather cover, for the heck of it.
I loaded it up with 160 free books, plenty of reading for the foreseeable future!

Oh yeah, and this one on Blu-ray:

I bought a new battery for my car on Sunday. My prior battery (of nearly 8 years) red ringed.

how big is the screen? Do you think text books would work well on it?

Rebiak take that e-reader back and wait for the one Kosma posted. I messed with that Sony one at work the other day and the interface felt way too slow to me (changing pages/menu items), almost unbearably slow.

Bocsius · « **Reply #10 on:** September 08, 2009, 03:37:04 PM »

Ah, the second piece of the set of pitiful beings I'd not volunteer to have: a dog.

While unlike the first piece, a child, the dog will never ask you to buy it a car or fund its way through college. On the other hand, the child will eventually learn to clean its own poop. Odds are slightly higher for your child than your dog that you'll need to one day bail him/her out of jail.

Brehvolution · « **Reply #11 on:** September 08, 2009, 03:40:06 PM »

Unlike a dog, raising children is quite rewarding.

What region?

Reb · « **Reply #17 on:** September 08, 2009, 06:35:56 PM »

Canada/North Amerika

Quick impressions of the ereader:
- Quick boot-up
- Slow loading
- Perfect readability
- Software looks suspiciously like iTunes

About the eeeReader: it's only a concept for now, nothing is known about the screen type.
And if it turns out to be awesome, I'll buy it as well, ha!

I will not buy Muramasa until I finish Persona 4. :'( Get it together, me.

I caved in and bought Muramasa (again; have the Japanese version) and Metroid Prime Trilogy after trading in some crap to Gamestop.

With these and MadWorld, that's pretty much it for the American Wii games I'm interested in.

The screen is pretty small, a bit smaller then a pocket book. It reads very nicely though.
It should work ok with text books, but the touch screen version might be more useful, bit bigger screen, plus the ability to make notes and highlight text.

Dunno... I prefer the ices because they're (even the ones made from cream) lighter to me than ice cream. Good way to cleanse the palate.

Today I bought: perscriptions for sinus infection medication

Perhaps a Wiipoints card to buy Contra.

Also picked up a Riot Clearcase for the ipod touch with a built in screen protector

I've made the two biggest shame purchases in a good while.

1) a Razer product. Granted, the shame from the tacky "FOR GAMERZ LEDS EVERYWHERE FUCK" style, but I wanted a good lightweight pair of headphones for computer use (I have HD 595 I use, but for longer periods, like when I'm on my computer, they start to get uncomfortable). I heard the Carcia..Carchastas..something that begins with C headset was good. I found it cheap, and it's pretty nice. The mic on the headset isn't too great, but the headphones have good sound and are extremely comfortable and light.

2) Gretsch Duo-Jet Beatles Rock Band controller. Between having no fully working Rock Band/Guitar Hero controller and playing a lot of Beatles Rock Band, I eventually decided to get it. It's actually really great and the best guitar controller, both in function and performance, but still...shit was expensive even with discounts and stuff. And it looks so nice.

ha, found out that vista 64 doesn't support a2dp stereo bluetooth, so my $40 headset won't work on my republic of gamers laptop

apparently vista 64 supported stereo bluetooth at some point, but some genius decided to remove that functionality during one of the umpteen-thousand updates, so it only works on the 32 bit OS now

they sound great paired with my ipod touch, though

There's a zipper on the back so I can just unzip the top/head off to be able to drink. No comment on getting laid.
