The Monkey

Anyone on the fence with funds available should just dew et; you'll be happy.

Good call Mike. I'm probably right behind you on it. I like the extra room. I think I'll be spending a fair amount of $ with Tom Bihn today.

Interesting. If it just kicks you up to the $30 plan, then there's no reason to sign up for it in the first instance it would seem.

Mike (or anyone), does the plan automatically upgrade to the $30 unlimited if you exceed? My guess is no, but that's a guess.

Just an fyi...After roughly 2 weeks of iPad 3G ownership, I have transferred almost 200GB in data over 3G under what I would consider light use conditions. It would seem difficult to me to sign up for 3G and not exceed the 250GB limit if one uses 3G daily, even just a little bit. EDIT: Oh for Christ's sake, I forgot the major caveat: I don't have wireless in my office, so it is on 3G most of the work day. But during that time, I am not actively surfing, just receiving mail and push notifications...and the occasional Words with Friends. So not heavy use, but certainly may affect my conclusion above. Fucking migraine.

Thanks guys. I have some Prednisone for such times, which will usually stop the thing within a day, but that's a full day. Now it's just a matter of getting through the day. Called in for the pain meds. We'll see if doc takes pity on me. They're not exactly liberal with those things.

Woke up with a migraine. Too late for the migraine meds. Not enough Advil in the world. No painkillers, and can't-miss meetings at work. Should be a fun day.

Heh. I've had a migraine the last two days, so I haven't been able to set them up to test. Hopefully tonight. Then decisions will be made. We'll probably just get a bigger desk.

It's starting...

I think it's the Depth. 14" is pretty deep on a desk, and mine is a bit narrow to begin with.

Pretty much.

Missus Monkey is not a fan of the Tom Bihn.

I'm very close to ordering the Tom Bihn Zephyr. And also an iPad murse of some kind. And panties.

I am not close to filling my 64GB, but I'm glad I have it. Team Overkill I guess.

Thanks Mike. I went by the Tumi store in Grand Central yesterday. They're nice, but full price. I'm wondering if online will be better pricing.

I do like the Tumis. Mike, you're right, my office is very conservative (business dress), but it's also weird--probably why I like it here. Conservative, but not fancy, so I may be able to get away with a less corporate bag provided that it is not bright pink. BTW, I checked out a couple of luggage stores in my neighborhood around my office. That is a sketchy business.

FFFFUUUUU. I'm so bad with dimensions. The 9Ls are obviously better for me. But they are gotdam expensive in comparison. We'll see, I'll hook these up tonight to confirm they work (they are beautiful, btw), then determine if they stay at home, go to work, or go to someone else.

Heh, yeah. It's been really good for this. I like that app.

Here's my list so far:

They're physically much larger than I had anticipated. And that's going to be a problem. Haven't hooked them up yet.

These 12Ls are fucking gigantic.

I love that last pic.

Filson gear tends to be pretty heavy. How much does that thing weigh?

vBulletin 4 is better than crack cocaine.

Happy birthday, Ari
