I want one of these..

There's a lot of gadgets doing the rounds right now, people keep on bringing them into the office and showing them off.. For example earlier this week someone brought the new Sony PSP into work and an afternoon was wasted marveling at Sony's new product.. It's lovely, it really is and although I know that I have precious little spare time and despite the fact that I know that my PC and Gamecube sit upstairs most evening in a state of neglect, I just want one of these things. Somewhere there must be a scientific formula that you can apply to any new electronic gadget that makes blokes of a certain age just need your product, despite the fact after the initial five-minute elation of purchasing it and taking it out of the box for the first time, there will, inevitably, be the distinct feeling of "Oh my god I just blew nearly 200 notes on a toy".
The other thing doing the rounds right now is Apple's iPod Nano, which is really quite staggeringly beautiful to look at. It also holds lots of tunes and has a nice colourful display. Now I have music at home, in my car, at work and really have no need for a device that stores MP3s and allows them to be held. I don't use public transport, and do I walk? Do I fu..
So why is it that I covet this product so.. I know it's really cool but there is no actual reason to purchase one.. Who needs a reason though when design like this is so slick?

But I shall resist.
I shall turn my back on all of these gadgety type things..

Oh so I thought..

Until I saw this..
Bollocks to your state-of-the-art gadgetry, mate, retro kicks ass!
Now I really want one of these..
I mean.. Uridium!
What more reason do you need?
