The D2pad tablet I purchased on sale was very underwhelming Lol.I thought I could get it just for the internet and this sort of thing but its too darn slow.My kids use it occasionally though so it still gets used. :)

Mine would have to be the Razor Nostromo, it was one of the only pieces of tech I purchased without doing any research and one of the only things I seriously regretted.

The magic mouse.. Still surprises me how many people want it.. First one got as a gift, sold it a week after and the next ones were bought / received on occasions. At some point I can make a living just by selling these things.  :huh:

Just no ... Even a cheap 5$ mouse from ebay has better tracking than the magical thingy mouse from Apple...

Pebble watch. Notifications keep on breaking, screen has tearing issues(wouldn't be an issue if their tech support wasn't overwhelmed by the terrible design), 8 app/watch face limitation, not very useful, and cheap build quality.

Send it to me :lol:

 

OT: A microsoft OS...

Scrapyard Build Total Cost: $268AUD


C2Q E8200 | 4 x 1gb DDR2 | GA-EP45-DS3 r1 | Gammax 200 | 320gb 2.5" | 7870LE PCS | Litepower 500w | CISCO Aironet 350

Lol, the funny thing is that I actually like it now :P. I still dislike the 8 app limitation, but other than that my only complaint is the band(black is boring). I pretty much use it daily.
