New Toys!
I love this time of year. This is when PHAT Daddy & I analyze our finances and see how the business has done for the year. Then I start lobbying for new toys. Then we decide what needs to be upgraded or replaced.
Today I bought this sweeter than sweet Motorola Q smartphone. It’s a phone. And a camera. But wait! It’s also a video camera. And I can check email and access the internet. And? I can plug it into my laptop and use the broadband access to get online anywhere. Not that I’ll use some of these features all that often, but it’s really cool knowing I can. I could sit and play with this thing for days. (If you’re in the market for a phone, there is a rebate offer on the Q right now that makes it very reasonably priced.)
We’re also getting an iMac, which is quite exciting for me because this will be my first Mac. I’ve always been a Windows gal. Some people totally stress about new computers and gadgets, but I love learning and exploring new technologies. I’m sure that in a parallel universe I am some sort of IT wiz and web designer extraordinaire. I so missed my calling.

Public Service Announcement: The holidays are coming up and maybe you have no idea about this year’s children’s toys. Which ones rock and which ones suck? Well, Carli can tell you. Just check out her blog: Toy Reviews. Her reviews are informative, well-written and entertaining. I know Carli personally and, people, she know her toys.
































PHAT = Parenting, Homeschooling And Technology. That about sums up my life at the moment.

Congrats on the new toy! I’ve been eyeing the Q since it came out but I’m determined to get my $500 worth out of my Treo 650 :P.
I love gadgets.

Thanks for the shout out!
I have a MAC Mini and would never go back to PCs.
That’s a sweet looking phone thing.

Congrats on the new phone! I have the Palm Treo but I’ve been thinking of upgrading to the Q. I’ve heard a lot of great things about it!
