Now if she stuffed one of theses in my stocking I would be a happy guy and never question her electronics choices again. http://www.malibal.com/nine/

@ Obitroy read my post in the Lab section about in game purchases for you daughters itouch they can get out of hand real quick.

@ Rand If you are going to buy music for you new itouch I would take a look at Amazon first because there are no restrictions on what you do with your purchased music.

Can't say i've heard of that brand before Duke. Are they new to the scene? Looks pretty sweet.

I think it's the same as Clevo but I'm not sure.

Well it's also way too expensive but it's good to look at.

Well I got a computer magazine in my stocking, and it changed my mind about wanting a gift lol, Dual hexacore procs, and an internal XBOX 360, maxed out specs only $16,999.00

So, where's the Loot thread? Maybe this one converts...

My wife did get me a Kindle 3, which is awesome.

Supplemental Kindle Goods:
-6 Kindle games, 18 classics, most free or less than 1 buck except for the $4 I had to spend on everything H.P. Lovecraft wrote (never read him before), 2 free newer books (promotions by the publishers), some .99 fiction, a free Thesaurus, etc.
-A lighted cover since I feel I'm going to snap this thing accidently. I think I spent about $12 bucks on Kindle stuff, and $52 for the cover--almost new from Amazon Warehouse saved 8 dollars. Still too expensive.

Straight Cash, Homey
-$75.00 in direct Amazon gift cards
-$30.00 in Best Buy
-A boatload of cash ($250) and a check for $50
These went towards my purchases, with the remaining amounts going in my checking account when I get to a bank. Probably all of that goes to this idiotic $80.00 fee I have to pay for a permit to replace my back yard fence.

Gifts from others or me:
-A networked, stand-alone Blu-Ray player to complement my PS3
-Inception, Toy Story 3, and Scott Pilgrim blu-rays
-A second PS3 controller
-Six CDs, all from this year and on the "best of" lists--Kanye, Arcade Fire, Brothers, Florence and the Machine, LCD Soundsystem, Sleigh Bells
-DVDs--Miller's Crossing, Barton Fink, Brotherhood of the Wolf, Boondock Saints, Batman: Under the Red Hood
-Wii: Rayman's Raving Rabbits (for $3.50 from Borders, rock on!), Resident Evil 4, Epic Mickey
-Books: Bloom County Complete Colleciton Volume 3, Star Wars Crimson Empire 1, Penny Arcade Vol. 3, an awesome pocket handyman book full of facts, Saving Savannah, the Late Night/Conan/Leno book
-PC Games: Mass Effect 2, Age of Wonders 2
-An awesome Lowly Worm stuffed/bendable figure. Any fans of Richard Scarry would know this rocks.
-CANDY!

Lamesauce, but necessary
-A storage bin
-Hangers
-Something like 12-14 nearly new/new pairs of pants from my Dad, who lost some weight lately
-Underwear, white socks, 4 pairs dress socks
-2 dress shirts, one including tie

So, what did you all get?

-Rand
