Upgrades
Boxing Day is about 2 things: Media and Upgrades.
For media I picked up Mr. Deeds and a season of Sex & The City I didn’t have.
For upgrades I picked up a 1 GB SD card for $20. Thanks to this I no longer want an iPod.
My PDA used to have a 512 MB SD card, it would have periodic data corruption and my PDA had recently started taking naps without permission (see ‘Luggage’). Well the new card seems to have resolved those issues and tripled my mp3 capacity, for half of the previous card housed programs, ebooks, work stuff, etc. 750 MB of mp3s easily changed via media centre is more than enough for my humble commuting needs.
Keep in mind nearly all of my mp3s are encoded at 128 so few are more than 3.5 MB in size, that results in 200-odd songs versus the 70 or so from before.
