I feel need of a treat. Probably an IT based treat.

have a 360, laptop,netbook, bluray and HD TV. Wii, ipdo touch. Sufficient for my needs.

What gadget of piece of software would be entertaining?

If you're into books, an e-reader or whatever they're called? The devices and the books seem expensive to me, though maybe you don't care :?

Read a lot, but you're right, they still seem expensive.

Maybe when more books in the formats, or when the battle's won.

PS3? I've only just got one... Benefits I spose are something of a media hub for your files, another BR player and potential exclusives (don't know any off-hand)...

Good idea :D

I was also just thinking of one of those media streaming boxes if that's your thing, or a new phone :)

Got a letter from the tax office yesterday... My tax return for last year has been processed, I get €2,100 back! :D

It will probably go towards moving costs or a new kitchen... Although I'm seriously thinking of getting the girls Mac minis... :? (the eldest currently has a 1Ghz Celeron, which had 256MB RAM, until last month, I managed to snaffle another 256MB for it, and the disk drive is full, the youngest has my 2003 model Athlon 64 machine).

Thanks for reminding me I need to contact the tax office, I think I overpaid about £500 or so this financial year :D

Or how about buying a fellow forumite (me) a nice Mamiya 645 AFDIII?

Well, if we're making requests, I'm gonna start off small with one for a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse set please, as I'm currently typing this from within the PS3's browser on a USB keyboard, using the joypad to guide me about. Ta ;)

How about one of those little keyboards that clip to the top of the joypad? They are pretty good.
