| Simple is better, right?
My family bought me a hpc gadget, against my wishes. I'm glad they ignored me.
The coolest thing I got this year was a flexible USB light for my 6651. No more fumbling in the dark or adjusting the screen angle to see the keys.
I never thought such a simple gizmo could be so invaluable. |

| tenjeangosi,
you did very well for loot this year! You have some neat gadets to keep you busy and having fun for quite a while.
I'm guessing you told the givers what you wanted so there was no mistakes to be made.
Monica, I have to endure blackouts every month or so. Some lengthy, some short. Like you, my hpcs keep me happy during the outages. It's strange how much I've learned to count on them for entertainment when nothing else is available. |

Well, I wanted a P****t PC so I could really do WiFi and play videos and music, and I wanted a AA powered H/PC, so I do not have to worry about rechargable batteries, a trend that I use when I got my Nino and Velo... |

| I have to agree with you about PPCs and music. Why bother with Ipods or whatnots when you have wifi and a desktop full of music? Add a decent size cheap flash card and you're ready for the road. I also think the music and video players I've used on ppcs beat any dedicated jukebox I've ever seen.
Have fun! |

I got socks for Christmas. Seriously, that was it since my wife and I agreed not to buy for each other a few years back. Sometimes it stinks getting old, all the relatives dying off or getting Alzheimers...
No nephews/nieces/aunts/uncles/brothers/sisters. Parents (80ish ) got me the socks.
Now is the time I wish I had children...

nothing serious really... not even a hpc the biggest stuff was a pair of white leather boots.
well, i got the bsquare phh partially for my birthday, which is 5 days before christmas.
oh and the intermec almost arrived at christmas but i paid for it so that isn't a real present. currently it is stuck at customs  can't wait to hear their estimate on what i have to pay.  that will be my "present" for the eve of new year |
