I know I can do with 6 displays to play my favourite games!  $99 at OWC.

This Philips mp3 player has been out for a little while.  But unfortunately it seems to only be available in Singapore and South East Asia.

I’ve been waiting for this to be available here, not so for the accessorising factor but because it’s a 2GB flash drive, mp3 player, fm radio and above all else it has bluetooth connectivity.  Most bluetooth headphones you can get are either ugly or make you look like a dork with dumbo ears and you wouldn’t want to be seen dead in them.  At least with this Philips luxe mp3 you simply clip it on your body and plug in any of your favourite headphones via the 3.5mm audio jack and listen to your tunes wirelessly.

It is also a pretty good mp3 player with good reviews all round the net.

A decent pico projector.  This one has 30 lumens which is about 3 times brighter than other pico projectors out there.  Definitely useful, but I think I’ll wait for one that has bluetooth or wireless syncing so you can project without cables.
