  • dansor

Thanks again to the mods for picking the winners. dansor surely knows about his helicopters — check his comments from this thread!

I have been away in SE Asia for "holidays" this week and next week (which is why this announcement is late, and also there's no thumbnail generation this morning). Currently in Hong Kong in my in-law's place typing up this post, but unfortunately I have not been doing much gadget shopping due to dropping AUD. Bringing two kids in crowded computer markets is not easy either.

Actually the price of computer parts and gadgets are not as cheap as I thought, and some are even more expensive than Australia when I use the current exchange rate (around 1 AUD to 5 HKD). Nokia E71 for example, sell for around $3,500 HKD here (~$700 AUD). That just show how much currency is hedged and we are probably expecting a sharp rise in price soon.
