A quick stock take

I'm not taking stock of every gadget i own (though a high concentration is on me almost all the time) but here's what i have in my trusty Pacsafe 200 :

• My wallet (not a gadget...boring)
• a HTC TyTn II handphone ( a little gadgety but getting dated and cranky)
• an Ipod Touch 2G 32GB (multimedia gadget extraordinaire!)
• a Fenix P2D torchlight (uber powerful mini torchlight)
• a black Photon Freedom Micro (still a staple wherever i go)
• A Lenmar solar-panel device charger (more useful than i thought it would be)
• an X-mini 2 speaker (fabulous mini speaker for any portable audio device)
• trusty Casio Exilim Z750 digital camera (a little thick but durable and reliable)
• 3 pens of various nib sizes
• microfiber cleaning cloth for all these stuff

I used to have a Swiss army knife in here but it got lost a while ago. Just need a replacement and perhaps a means of starting a fire and i should be all set.

Why do i lug around all this junk at all times? It's hard to nail the reason down. Maybe it's a neurotic fear of being caught unprepared when some emergency hits, like being stuck in a jammed lift or a flat tire in the middle of nowhere at midnight. Then again, it could be just that guy thing where we look at something and marvel at what it can do even though we might never need to use it.

I hope to be able to continue posting gadget-based insights but sadly, my track record with previous blogs haven't been flawless. Give me a kick now and then please!
