BIG THINGS

Acer Aspire One (early 2011)

A great little netbook, the Aspire One covers all of my basic on-the-go computing needs. It’s extremely thin and light, and pretty fast for such modest specs. It runs Windows 7 Starter and Ubuntu 11.04. 

Fujifilm S1700

A great value bridge camera, with an awesome 15x zoom and 720p HD video recording. It also takes some pretty amazing macro shots. I love it. 

Google Nexus S

My new primary phone, as of Christmas Day 2011. It runs Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and is one damn fast phone. Mainly used for messaging, on-the-fly tweeting, web browsing, and also makes the occasional phone call. 

Apple iPod touch

It’s a sort of backup device, and has my entire music collection stored on it. It’s slow and battered, but I keep it around as an old faithful. 

LITTLE THINGS

Bose On-Ear headphones

They offer very good sound quality, are very comfortable, and best of all, they fold up neatly (pictured) to easily fit in a bag without any problems. 

Pocket Boom

This weird device can turn something like a table or chair into an amplifier; you plug one end into the 3.5mm headphone jack on your device and the other ‘limpet’ end sticks onto the object, thus essentially turning it into a giant speaker. Pretty cool to show off to people, although I don’t use it that much. 

Buffalo Ministation 300GB portable hard drive

Basically, I’ve stopped using USB pen drives. 

Microsoft Arc Mouse

Comfortable, cool-looking, and extremely portable. The perfect netbook and desktop mouse. 

HSBC Key

Basically a layer of security to login to my online banking, which I do from a variety of different computers/devices, hence I carry it around all the time. 

Cables (not pictured)

There’s a lot of them, from chargers to data cables.
