I have just purchased a Canon PowerShot G9, along with a new 24″ LCD monitor.
Soon, this here blog of mine will also contain photographs, starting with ones of my other major toy purchase from last month.
Will this change compel me to add real layout and styles to the page? No, probably not.
I just can’t seem to get enough of this Nintendo DS thing.
Not moments ago, I noticed that the charging light on my borrwoed DS is turned off, no doubt indicating that the device is now fully charged, just waiting for me to pick it up and play another few rounds of Meteos.
Now, this meaningful indicator thing may not appear to be a big deal, but I’m sure we’ve all had our share of recharging devices where we, the user, had to spend effort to find out whether or not that device still needed charging. For example, the charger that came with my used cellphone has an red LED which turns on when it is plugged in, regardless of the amperage that is actually going through the thing: a completely useless indicator, other than perhaps seeing if your wall plugs are indeed giving you power.
The DS, on the other hand, only needs to be glanced at. If the orange light is on, it’s charging; if it’s off, it’s good to go.
Kudos Nintendo—kudos.
