Phone

After signing up for a Gizmo account a couple weeks ago, I finally got myself a headset and made a few test calls--everything seems to be working. We'd used Skype at work a little bit, but Gizmo is open-source and less likely to jack up their prices come 2007. It should be about five to six dollars a month.

I also got a 50-pack of DVD-R's yesterday in anticipation of my burner which should be getting here by early next week. Roughly 18 GB of storage per dollar. The mind boggles.
