New iphones being announced tomorow, looking forward to that.
I hope they do some new ipads but there are high probablity that won't be until octoober. Not sure if i'm gonna upgrade this year as I want an xbox too.

I know Watchdogs is on both, and that's the one i'm most looking forward to, but xbox one also has Ryse, which looks wicked.

I hate how often new apple stuff comes out.

It's a lot less than other brands though, about once a year.

Just seems to be a lot, and they don't change much.

About once a year per product, rising up to sometimes 18 months.
With iPhone, there is only one [ok, two starting from tomorow], they release it every year to 18 months.

Where as Nokia/HTC/Samsaung have about 4-5 current phones, which get updated every year, but staggered.

And their iOS stuff doesn't cost that much more than the comparable products from competing brands, except they hold their value a lot more when you go to sale them. Their Mac stuff though is way higher than comparable.

I have an ipad, which I really like, but can't get into the iPhone.
The older I get, the more I hate mobile phones anyway.

I like keeping them the same ecosystem because that means I don't have to re-buy apps and I get used to everything.
But I did have a Nokia Lumia for a bit and loved that, it was a great phone. I'm not a fan of Android, but the galaxy and htc one both look good.

But I bought it anyway.

I'd quite like a second hand Mini to use as a media player.

What percentage of your available computing power do you use?
As things stand at the moment.

I couldn't really put a ballpark on it, the only 'gadget' that I have that was a real waste of time was the e-ink reader, which I was going to hack.
Pebble Smartwatch: use all the time, the concept is really handy, can't wait for Apple's version... i'm not being a fanboy there, if I was on Android then i'd have got the Galaxy Gear.

Nexus 7: Great for reading books and watching TV on the tube, as it's so portable. Currently busted though =(. WIll replace with iPad Mini when the next ipad mini comes out.

iPad: Great for radio and interneting in the bed or throne-room. Or if I'm staying over somewhere and odn't want to bring my laptop.

Macbook Pro: Where I do most of my work and what I use the most.
