I've decided that what with wedding plans and late summer gardening, I'm just not going to have much time to devote to writing over the next two months; however I should be relatively free by November, just in time for NaNoWriMo :)

I've abandoned my plan to buy an older Dana on ebay, as prices were too high for my liking - I feel it's a false economy to pay more than about 50% RRP for secondhand electronics (at least when the RRP is more than, say £100), since they have no warranty and could thus turn into landfill within days of purchase. So, I've ordered a wireless Dana from the cheapest online shop I could find, and it's due to arrive tomorrow :D

On the plus side, last Thursday I won an auction for an "unwanted gift" white iPod Nano. I didn't make a massive saving, but did effectively get 2GB for the price of 1 :)

Not only did my Dana arrive on schedule (well done, Portable Technology!), but the iPod turned up in the post as well. Two toys to play with this evening - I shan't know which one to start on!

No, that's not true. One of them is an "it just works" Apple product, the other is a complex device requiring careful setup and choosing of options - bit of a no-brainer for a geek like me ;)
