More like inquiring. Just test it out a bit and kinda like what I got. Need to back up the computer before I try to install Linux. Very powerful UMPC for what it's getting right now.

havent contributed anything in a while so I figured I would post my gym gear since I finally nailed down the combo



Rockboxed Fuze+ (playlist on shuffle only)
Philips SHE3590 with comply tips and meelec ear hooks

The entire setup is really light and cheap (fuze+ can be found for $30 refurbed, SHE for $10 on amazon or $7 at some tj maxx stores) but sounds great.

All the portable stuff gathered together...(ok, not the headphones)

[McDougal]

Have to say, I like your collection .....

Lol no thanks the iPod is the only portable device I have that can access the internet (besides laptop, which isn't really portable because it has no battery) .

I've heard a lot of good stuff about the Philips for the price, is it true?

yeah, its true. I mean, don't get all crazy and think its better than a $100 set but its very damn capable for $10-15. and they improved the cable some from the SHE3580 to the new SHE3590. not as stiff.

[mamamia88]

Too much?

Finally got around to putting my old 225s back in working condition.

[JDGAFFLIN]

Just picked up 2 pairs of the Incase Reflex headphones..

They were marked down to $7.99 at Marshall's (Think TJ Maxx).

My ears/brain are still adjusting to them, but I am tapping my toes to Prince right now, and have no complaints. More in depth thoughts to follow... (In the appropriate thread, of course.)

I've just tried a neat trick to improve my Grado's comfort. Works just fine, looks very decent!

[The DarkSide]

^EAR MUFFS!!!^ Really nice,...

[lebellium]

My R2 just arrived from the UK

It's (and will probably remain) the last Samsung touchscreen player with a proprietary OS but the design and the UI are strongly inspired by Android smartphones as you can see



The R2 between the GS2 and the R1








Bonus:

How to save as much money as possible on products nobody is interested in anymore? Just re-use the same box again and again




PS: R1 users may get Rockbox very soon, lucky guys
