objets du désir
When you’re stressed and you develop a major chocolate craving, you buy a 710g bucket of M&Ms. When that’s not enough, you mix in a large bag of Malteasers. When you notice that you’re going through that bucket at a rapid pace, you decide that it would be sensible to buy the 1kg bucket on your next shopping trip…
Objet du désir
I finally saw an actual physical copy of this product in a shop today… I want… I really want… one in black please…
Another objet du désir
Can someone please explain the Sony PSP to me? Are there such things as cracked (or mod) versions? Is it any good? Is this something I want? How much would it cost in Malaysia?
The introductory “value” package costs AUD399 in Australia and comes with one unit PSP, a battery pack, a power adaptor, headphones (with remote control built in, I believe), pouch, wrist strap and 32MB memory stick duo.
But the real objet du désir, the one I want above all else, cannot be bought with money. It can’t be acquired nor possessed… and it’s something I fear I will never find…

UPDATE: I just discovered that I can buy the 4GB Nano for only AUD323 in Australia. The same would cost MYR1219 in Malaysia (30% more expensive), SGD438 in Singapore (5% more expensive) and GBP179 in the England (30% more expensive)… this is not good, is it…???

Heheh. Hello, J.
As for your questions on my blog re: PSP -
1)Original games come in UMD format, which is like miniature DVDs with 1.8GB capacity. There are also UMD movies, but these are by far not really worth buying, since you can copy your downloaded movies to Memory Stick Duo and then watch on the device
2)For MYR 800 you get the basic pack consisting of the console, charger and I think a 32MB Memory Stick. Add MYR 100 and you get 1 free game, a soft case and earphones with remote - not a bad deal.
PS: Nice blog
ash: ooo… thanks for this. i guess i don’t want a PSP… now! especially now that i’ve developed a nano-fever… we’ll see about it later…
allison & spot: i’m going grocery shopping tomorrow, or maybe later today. i’m definitely getting the 1kg bucket! i need it!
