Are you the type of person who waits a couple months to buy a certain product or do you buy it instantly?
I skip out on things like iPods or computers, but if it's cameras, tv's, and phones then yeah i'm definitely stoked about that. |

I'm always dreaming about the next great thing. I'm also always on the edge of purchasing something. If I hear about a new product that's about to be released I can't purchase what I want until it's been released.
For example: I can't bring myself to purchase a new cell phone even though my contract is up because NVIDIA's quad core Tegra processor is arriving Q4 2011. This happens to me all the time. It's frustrating because I need to know I'll be satisfied with my tech for at least 6-7 months. If I see something that's noticeably better than what I have, I get anxious. I few gadgets I'm currently happy with: 1. My PC (It's only a core 2 dou but it's all I need... with my 6970) 2. My TV (It's a Panasonic GT30, this is the first TV I've ever felt truely satisfied with since my first HDTV back in 2003.) 3. Our Laptop (Alienware M11X, wow.. this thing is starting to show age, but it still cooks) 4. My Powertools (I own a duplex, so power-tools are a must. I'm consistently fixing things in that house. I just love buying new tools) Sometimes I spend money on things I'm not really satisfied with... 3DS... 3DS... *sigh* |
