AudiaX DGT-202 FM Wireless Transmitter:
Piece of crap. And it is nevertheless one of the better fm transmitters on the market. Build quality is low. Cord nearly fell off. Battery hatch and compartment are small, fragile. Battery fit is tight and so it needs to be pried from the device. Difficult control knob. Power is far [...]
I finally decided on a DAP. After much deliberation, I came to conclusion that there will never be a perfect player in a sensible price range. One of the candidate models happened to be on sale and so one thing led to another.
I chose the Samsung 4GB YP-Z5F mainly for its wholesome build quality and [...]
Still no mp3 player. And as I was walking by a showcase of the current generation of mp3 players at one of my local electronics retailers I was struck with the force of revelation. Seeing mp3 players in the flesh is a lot different from reading specs and brooding over promo shots. I have expressed [...]
So, this neck of the woods is about to switch from analog to digital TV. Or that is to say, the analog transmissions are to be terminated in three weeks time. It’s not true to form to reject technological progress but this digital TV thing is not sitting well with me. It’s expensive (considering the [...]
No flash Digital Audio Player (DAP) that is. I felt really close the other week but then I read some more reviews and got cold feet again. I’m no “decider” that is for sure. So, realistically, what are my options right now given the set criteria? (which I posted over a year ago!)
The updated Iriver [...]
I bet you’ve never heard that before. Ok, so you probably have. I don’t claim to be novel but I do dislike Apple and their products so much that I’d thought I’d share my not so novel hatred of the Macintosh and iPod manufacturer. In a way it’s much like my disdain for the United [...]
A first small step towards renovating the mountainbike. Albeit a cheap and easy one. And a new dawn in acquisition theory one might say. Specifically, not to make such a big fuss about every detail and go into excruciating detail for every single widget. And somehow getting over the heuristic telling you not to get [...]
Since two weeks ago, Sweden has migrated to digital passports. Sounds hyped but in reality it’s just a small embedded chip that can hold text and a mugshot. Same as what is usually also, and remains to be, on paper. No biometrics (in the strict sense of the word) for a couple of years thankfully.
I [...]
Oh, I almost forgot. I never go to IKEA without visiting the gadget bonanza that is Clas Ohlson.
SILVA HELIOS. Storm lighter / rope burner with super-efficient burner that handles wind speeds up to 70 knots. As practical in town, as in the field. Water-resistant design. Adjustable flame and built-in fuel-level window. Operates on butane gas.

It just struck me the other week how baffling it is that I as of yet haven’t invested in an portable MP3 player. Me of all people. It’s not that I don’t know how to use it, that I don’t have any MP3 files (my collection is legendary if you will), that I don’t need [...]
