    Talking Yeah for me! Gadget Day

    As discussed in this thread I got an iRiver H10 6gb. And it just arrived today! I love my UPS guy

    Currently dumping about 5.5GB of stuff on there. It's taking a while, but I'm just so happy this thing arrived before my upcoming trips I can't stand it.

    And to top things off, my boss told be yesterday to get rid of my phone and get a Treo 650. I just got back from the store with a brand spanking new hella cool phone/PDA thing. I've just started figuring it out, but watching the rest of the managers use these the last couple years has made me more than a little jealous at times.... But now I'm one of them

    Any, no questions or anything, I'm just one big fat happy camper today because of my new gadgets!

    I'm wondering if i should buy one for christmas but i'm afraid i'll be dissapointed with the sound quality (like i was with iPods and the creative zen micro).

    No man, the h10 sounds freaking amazing, Im so suprised that the rich sound gracing my ears comes from something smaller than my wallet( which is now very small after buying all my cool toys).

    With all the talk about Palm's slide, I was looking at the Treo 650 at the weekend, I've got pretty much all the other main smartphones but not had a Palm one, very tempted to give it a go but not been able to find a good price on one here.

    The price here was really bad (over $400). But since I get to expense it to work, it never entered the equation. They said "get a Treo 650" and I said "OK".

    Really loving the H10 too -- I highly recommend it.

    It's only carried by a single operator over here unfortunately, due to the way contracts work here you can normally get the devices for a lot cheaper than their offline price but it doesn't look like it's going to go that way with the Treo. I doubt work is going to be buying me one anytime soon either!

    Congratulations, both are great gadgets

    I really need a new phone too, but none currently interests me. Except for the new Samsung 3G phone, but that's way too expensive.
