I'm retiring my dopod 900!

My daughter walked in the house 30 minutes ago and gave me my birthday prezzie! I've got a new Galaxy Tab 10.1. YAY!

Of course she just sold her MacBook to my neice (who lives with me as well) and bought herself a new MacBook Air. I'm now the dinosaur in the house, as we've got two MacBooks & and an iMac & iPhone on my network here an my Dell. By tomorrow afternoon I reckon I'll have the Tab on board as well.

I feel like a kid in a candy story

congratulations SMS! Toys are the only things to play with at your age Lucky bugger, my daughter confiscated my phone, after she dropped hers down the toilet!

Keep us updated on the tab, I've been looking at it for a while and the 7 inch phone too as i need a new phone and thought maybe I could kill two birds with one stone, not that i use a phone much, I just like to play with new toys too!

Yeah, and it's still working pretty good, the only thing that's died is one channel on the stereio. Course Windoze 5 was a dog, but it's been a good piece of kit and I've been using it for almost 6 years as it was purchased about 3 months after launch. ROI's been pretty good. But with such a nice B'day prezzie from my daughter, well, we'll see. I do like the bigger screen realestate.

Enjoy your new toy.

I hope you got a Bluetooth earpiece with that. When I took the subway in Seoul, I can't help but smile when I saw an older guy talk on his Samsung tablet as if it's a small mobile phone. I mean it was big and bulky for a mobile phone. I felt it's kinda awkward. But then again whenever I watch some older movies where they used the bulkier mobile phones, I can't help but wonder at how much we've been become used to the effects of miniaturization.
