gadgetguy replied to yoyo6 on AmEx Statement Credit: Spend $60 or More in One Transaction at EG Ampol, Get $5 Back (up to 3 Times) @ American Express
Note excludes EG Ampol stations. Will a regular Ampol station sell gift cards? Maybe worth it you have one nearby. Only one use ~ 7% return.

14" v 15". FHD on an OLED - doesn't sound good. Also it's Intel vs AMD, I'll let someone else comment on that.

I do believe someone at Auspost stole it - but that's Starbuy's responsibility to resolve, not mine.

Are there any tiny external cases for these? If so, do they need external power or could I plug it into my phone (for example)?
