Re: What electronic devices are you proud to own?
 

Instead of looking to own yet another electronic device, why don't you find some modest computer hardware and setup a headless Linux server using something like Gentoo or Debian?

Use it as your own personal online file store, web server, mail server, media server, or anything else.

If you expose it to the outside world, you can even get to it remotely from anywhere in the world.

Especially if you use purely SSH to interact with the machine and don't even bother installing Xorg or another X server, it'll be an extremely lightweight way to get things done anywhere in the world.

You'll also get to experiment with means to secure your box from outside zombie attackers.

That said, if you are looking to spend more money, you can always look into digital photography. Within the last few years, a new breed of digital cameras have emerged that feature DSLR-sized imaging sensors (and image quality) in smaller bodies that still feature interchangeable lenses. Panasonic and Olympus pioneered this new market segment with their Micro Four Thirds system, but recently Sony and Samsung have been making waves with their NEX and NX systems respectively. If you truly buy into photography as a hobby, you'll always have a new gadget to purchase, as lenses can be an endless love affair. (The Micro Four Thirds lens line-up is fairly large now).

But... maybe you should try to budget before jumping in. Don't go broke now. :p

Personally, I now have a Panasonic GH1 with four lenses:
- Lumix G Vario 14-45mm f/3.5-5.6
- Lumix G Vario 45-200mm f/4.0-5.6
- Lumix G 20mm f/1.7
- Canon FD 50mm f/1.4

I would love to buy more lenses (I'm looking at you Panasonic 7-14mm f/4.0), but I really shouldn't afford to. And perhaps you shouldn't either... (just go have fun building your own inexpensive Linux server as I suggested earlier - much safer option)

Well, I have a lot of stuff.. but I am especially proud of my 14" digital picture frame which I built from an old Pentium 4M laptop :). It runs Gentoo Linux from a 4GB CF card. During boot it synchronizes with Google Picasa via WIFI, which makes it trivial for my significant other to put pics on it.

do you work for a marketing company? you do sound/post like one. hehe
and kudos for being a responsible lens-addict, with the warnings and such. :)

Re: What electronic devices are you proud to own?
 

Well, besides my N900, E75, E70 and 6800 I am especially proud of my HP48S, HP41CX, HP15C and HP12C (the HP50G is also OK, but not so "vintage" :)

Re: What electronic devices are you proud to own?
 

I do like my Pogoplug - hacked to run debian, and has a webserver, torrent daemon, and home monitoring and automation on it,a nd connected to a 1-wire network. really cheap for the price. They are about £50 in the UK now.

Only problem is that it's pink and white, so definately pushed to the back of the network closet

Re: What electronic devices are you proud to own?
 

Well, nokia 9000 was the first programmerfriendly phone, it ran Geos on top of dos on a intel 80c386 25mhz micropc. and there were a good pc-keyboard and some good programminglanguages ,of which bas9k was the most famous, that could be used directly on the phone.
-The idea of a pc with a desktop os there is quite similar to N900 i think ;)


I still have two 9100 and two 9210 and one 9500, all of them are still working but two of them have broken displays and were used for spareparts. (Batteries are still working too:) )
Ps, i also have a vic20 a commodore 128D and an amiga 2000 ;)
