$100 credit to early iPhone users
You might have heard the news that Apple slashed the price of the iPhone last Wednesday from $599 to $399 after 69 days when they released it. A lot of iPhone users got really upset (including me) because the price markdown was drastic and really fast. The next day, Steve Jobs sent an open letter on their website saying that he'll give $100 store credit to all iPhone users. Better than nothing. Once we get the store credit, I'm planning to get the new iPod nano in red.
Movie cube
We saw this DVD rental vending machine on our way out to the grocery store. It only costs $1 to rent a dvd but you have to return it the next day or else it will incur $1 per day. For the sake of curiosity, we tried how it works. So first, you select a movie and most of it are the new ones, then pay through your credit card, then you'll get the dvd. We rented Black Snake Moan coz I already saw most of the movies on the list.
Dual screen
We do most of our training online through Interwise. I'm really bored when I took this picture. I have my laptop on so I can still work and read my email while on training. This is how my desk looks like =P I'd like to keep it as neat as possible.
Geek Squad
I went to Geek Squad at Best Buy to have my laptop checked. I already know what's wrong, the battery doesn't charge, but I'd like to make sure first before I buy anything. They did some troubleshooting and when the tech guy recharged my battery with a universal AC adapter, it didn't work. I got really worried coz the motherboard might be the one that's failing, so I went to Toshiba authorized service center the next day. They figured out that I only need to replace the AC adaptor. So I went to Fry's and Circuit City but it costs $75 for an AC adapter. I checked ebay and they only have it for $25. I bought it online =P But since it will take a week before I get it on eBay, I bought the one on Circuit City so I can use something over the weekend. Once I received my eBay order, I returned the one from Circuit City and got 100% refund.

hey post a review when you get warmed up on your new red nano ;-) i wanna know if it's worth shifting to it (coming from a pink "old" nano)
So many iPods so little time! If ever I will upgrade I would still go for iPod Classic or iPod Touch (rip-off lang talaga touch). Or iPhone if Smart would be able to get a smart deal from Apple.
