I want to go to Europe with Liliana. That’s one of the reasons I’m working. But I also want some gadgets; I mention it in my last entry. And I want them now… and I’m planing to be working until June or July, so I will have the money for Europe. I promise.
Buying the gadgets in Mexico is a fuckin’ joke; they are like 20% or 30% more expensive… if available. So I asked Omar if he is going to Ciudad Juarez in this month or the next. If he goes, I can send the order tu the UTEP, where Omar’s brother is currently studying, and that Omar bring them back to me.
I asked Liliana and she’s OK with the plan, and mother says that I can use her credit card (I need to put the money in it, of course). So, I’m going to do it… if Omar is going to CJ in the next weeks…
I’m really excited; but I changed my list to this:
- Apple 40 GB iPod M9268LL/A
I really want the 40 GB model. Maybe I’m over-reacting (I only have like 10 GB of music in my collection); but it has just been discontinued, so in the future it will be the 20 GB version or the 60 GB one… and I don’t want either.
It’s so funcking hot!
- PalmOne Tungsten C Handheld
This is the good one. The iPaq looks nice; but I like this the most. Is a little smaller, and it has much more applications available. And it seems that the Palms works better in Linux.
- Sony Cybershot DSC-T1 5MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom
This is hot too. It has a cadle, non-AA battery, and is very slim. It also has an LCD of 2.5″, which is sexy as hell.
Those are the big ones. But I need accessories too. For the camera:
- SanDisk SDMSV-512-A10 512 MB MemoryStick Pro
I want a big MemoryStick. I’m not buying a Sony one (I can be snob with the camera, but the MemoryStick no one see it). It’s half Gigabyte. That’s a lot of pictures, even in really good resolution. And I’m a digital junkie; I don’t really want to print the pictures I take. So 1200×800 is fine with me. With 512 MB, I cant take a lot of backgrounds for my desktop.
- Sony ACCCFT Accessory Kit for the DSCT1/T33/L1/M1 Digital Cameras
Basically, a bag and an extra battery. The battery is cool; more time for pictures, but the bag is completely necessary.
- Sony VMC15MU USB Cable for DSCT1/T33/M1 Digital Cameras
With this, I don’t need the cadle all the time; which is good, because the camera is not that slim with the cadle.
- Sony BC-TR1 Compact AC Travel Charger for DSCP100/150/200/F88/L1/V3/M1/T33 Digital Cameras
Ídem, but with the charger. And it’s cool, because I will have two batteries, so I can charge one while I use the other.
For the PDA:
- PalmOne Zire Stylus 3-Pack
Because I’m very clumsy, and I surely will lost the stylus. Besides, it’s like five bucks.
- PalmOne Tungsten series Screen Protector
To protect de screen.
- PalmOne Recharging USB Hotsync Cable
To charge the Palm directly through USB.
- Palm PALM Palm Series Travel Kit
To charge the Palm with a discrete charger.
For the iPod I need only one thing:
- Monster Cable iCarPlay iPod Wireless FM Transmitter (AI-IP-FM-CH)
So I can listen MP3’s in my car! W00t!
Also I’m going to repaint my car, and fix it some things. And repair my cellphone.
All this is nice and perty, but I’m about to spend like 2,000 dlls. That’s a lot of money. It’s OK; I’m not spending all of it, but anyway it’s a lot of money. And I also like an iPod Shuffle.
But as I said, I expect to be working at least three more months. In that spirit, I saw Arturo today, and we talk about a possible job.
Being honest, I don’t really expected to work with Arturo. But I was interested in saw him and talk to him. I discovered that I’m not as mad at him as I was a couple of years before.
