It started when I was little, first it was Nintendo, then it was super Nintendo then I think I got over the whole video game thing and for a while I was into upgrading my cyber shot cameras. Now it’s about mobile phones, ipods and laptops.
In addition to gadget envy I’m a sucker for packaging and in my opinion, Apple kill it. I still remember the first time I bought myself an ipod. I was in New York walking past the apple store in Soho and I was sick of roaming the city streets listening to nothing but crazies and car horns (although now both of those sounds make me quite nostalgic). I remember taking my new white cube back to the apartment I was staying in and opening it like it was some version of Pandora’s box. Everything was simple, white, clean and neatly packaged and I just loved it. Let us look at how they've evolved.......

An ipod photo and mac book later, the iphone is the new thing (new is a loose term, actually everyone has one) I covet, but optus won’t give me one cause they are mean and I don’t like them and they keep telling me I have to wait, but I don’t think I can wait. I really REALLY want an iphone!!!
