This is the Vaticans Christmas Tree during Christmas!

Now Christmas is just a few weeks away and I can’t but feel all so excited for all these gadgets and things I want to have!  My friend margo already has her Christmas wishlist!  It’s not too early to make one, always good to let people know what you like beforehand right?

So here goes my wishlist for Christmas of 2009:
 
HP 2159m 21.5″ Diagonal Full HD Widescreen LCD Monitor
1. It’s been already a long time since I sold my old HP laptop and since then I’ve had to use my desktop. That’s no problem since I spent 50k on it except that my budget stopped there and I was relegated to using my old 17″ AOC CRT Monitor…. So this is easy… I want a LCD Monitor, and this is a beauty :P at 2MP resolution it’s a deal at $174.99!! 

Logitech X-540 5.1 Speaker System

2. Surprisingly, the speakers I’m using today have been my speakers since 2001. They are those cheapos that come with computers in those old days, but surprisingly they pump out clearer and more robust sound then some cheapo branded speakers out there. But alas it’s almost 2010 and it is obvious that I am lacking bass -- not only for my games but for music as well. Hoping to get myself one of these at about $90 or PHP4,230.00 at greenhills I hope!

My new Customized Shelf
3. I am a lazy-butt today so instead of scanning my drawing of my customized shelf, I will just tell you that it is so customized all of my constant mess around my room can fit into all its uniquely shaped and highly adaptable shelving system -- that includes new space for my CPU, UPS, All-in-one HP Printer,CDs, DVDs, thingamajigis, and endless trinkets. It shouldn’t cost more than PHP2-3,000.00!

My new Customized Bed
4. Being lazy again here, but I’ll just say it will be so comfy and functional because ill have these semi-tables next to me so when I’m just too lazy to go to my desk I can just leave my magazines, or books or whatever I’m reading there, it will also have a less accident-prone place to put my lamp and of course, counter-level convenience outlets so I don’t have to break my back trying to plug-in something into the eletrical socket underneath my bed!!!!

A really cool new cell phoneA fully-featured webhost
5. Now you see webhosting is really simple…. if you had money to pay for it. I want to have a server with PHP, Apache compatibility, and all those other things regular people take for granted! I want this because I hate to keep on migrating my data for whatever reason I need to (last time I had to migrate because unknowingly my account was suspended!!!!) I need a permanent home to host my files so that I can finally set-up my personal website, my blogs, my everything correctly -- without having to downsize my plans because of either lack of webspace or fear that I will have to re-host them again!!! I have already the perfect hosting

 

firm thanks to Mike -> www.philhosting.net!! Cheap and powerful, now somebody give a 1GB account for christmas?
 
LG Lollipop Cell phone
6.  This cellphone is really cool, I tell you!  There are three models: SV800/KH8000/LH8000.  The only downside I see is they  are flip phones and I might break it knowing me. but it has the latest mobile technology -- supports 3G connectivity (like I’ll ever use that soon) and it has a microSD card slot to for memory expansion, good for pictures?  Well not so, since the camera only has the ability to take 3 MP of pictures. It has a 1.3MP for video calling.  You can see yourself on the 2.8in LCD display.  It’s designed with an aluminum metal casing and comes in three colors: Aqua Blue, Boyish Titan and Cutie Pink (ew, haha!).  I think I’ll get the Boyish Titan, anyway you might be wondering -- so whats so cool about this phone?  It has secret LED lightings on the cover of the phone!  You can make your own graphics, letters, symbols whatever on this program and have it flash on the cover! Cool right? Plus if you check out 611connect’s link below then you can see how amazing the interface looks like! HAHAHA! Well thats about it haha, oh it has a G-motion sensor too.  According to this yahoo answers thing it cost about $350, so thats about PHP17,000, hmmm lots of money but hey it’s about time I replaced my 5 year old super sturdy it-doesn’t-want-to-die-on-me Sony Ericsson W800i.
To see for yourselves how cool this phone is check out Big Bang use the phone below:
 
Thanks to 611connect for the info.
 
HP DMZ Series Ultra-portable Laptop
7. I have had no laptop for a year now, and I sorely want one :P   My money went instead to PS3 and its constantly expensive games and peripherals.  But no more, I will get my laptop and I set my eyes on this ultra-portable laptop that can actually play HD youtube without a hiccup, unlike those netbooks which seem to slur and jump and hop.  The HP website says:
With the dm3z, you get a designer laptop that is less than 1″ thick and weighs only 4.21 lb.4, at an enticingly affordable price. Features include:

Brushed aluminum finish

  • Simplified daily PC activities with genuine Windows 7
  • Our “Modern Argento” brushed aluminum chassis, which is both stylish and engineered for durability
  • AMD Neo mobile processors with dual core options
  • Optional 512MB ATI Radeon HD 4330 graphics for enhanced multimedia
  • Standard 6-cell Lithium-Polymer battery which provides up to 6 hours of battery life1.
  • A touchpad that lets you effortlessly scroll Web pages, plus view and edit photos using zoom and rotation finger gestures
  • An optional external CD/DVD drive for installing software (the dm3z does not have an internal optical drive)
  • Optional mobile broadband with Qualcomm Gobi technology for staying connected at high speeds up to broadband (AT&T, Verizon Wireless, or Sprint)5

Aside from that it has high-definition 13.3″ Diagonal LED display, integrated low-light VGA camera, Wifi, Bluray for extra cost, up to 8GB ram, 500GB hard disk space or 128GB Solid State Hard Disk, and HDMI-output!  It only cost $549.95 or around PHP26,000.00! Not bad huh!?

A Small cute hard-shelled turtle

Cute Green Turtles8.  I’ve always wanted pets, but since my mom didn’t allow dogs or cats ever since we came from the states I’ve had no pet.  Of course there were the endless birds, and even the two big turtles my sister had.  At the states we had a cat and a dog.  I want a turtle!  They are so cute! And they just munch and move and don’t really need so much attention.  They seem happy to just be around! That is the best part about turtles!!  So anybody want to buy me a turtle and an aquarium type set-up for him I’ll be so happy! It only cost about PHP 220 each!
 
PANASONIC LUMIX LX3 Digicam
9.  I’ve used one of these lately, and all I have to say is they take incredibly beautiful pictures, even if you didn’t even care to compose your shot it seems to take in all the colors and shadows and lights!!  If you want buy me one at Quaipo! When you get out of Isetan head over to SM, right outside SM is a camera store, you won’t miss it!  It’s at the right-hand side!  I went there and actually bought that Lumix with my mom (it was for her).  It cost about PHP21,000.00 cheaper here than in Singapore!  It’s so cool I hope I get one!
According to Google Products:

Lumix LX3The DMC-LX3 puts the joy of creating beautiful, richly expressive images into every photographer’s hands. Leading the list of features is a large, developed, ultra-sensitive CCD. And rather than simply maximizing the pixel count as other cameras do, the DMC-LX3 makes generous use of its 10.1 megapixels in this 1/1.63-inch CCD. Each pixel is around 45% larger than those in ordinary 10-megapixel cameras. This boosts both sensitivity and saturation by around 40% each compared to standard models. Its predecessor, the DMC-LX2, also featured a large, 1/1.65-inch CCD, but in comparison, the DMC-LX3 offers around 20% greater sensitivity and around 15% higher saturation performance than even the DMC-LX2 by maximizing the size of the photodiode in each photo cell.

These CCD improvements also minimize noise generation in the DMC-LX3, resulting in a 1.5 dB increase in the S/N ratio compared with the DMC-LX2.

The DMC-LX3 is equipped with a 24-60mm f/2.0–2.8 Leica DC VArio-Summicron lens. In order to meet stringent Leica performance standards while offering a 24mm ultra-wide-angle setting and a large F2.0 aperture that nearly doubles the brightness of even a “bright” F2.8 lens, the lens system employs 8 lens elements in 6 groups, including 4 aspherical lenses. This provides superb resolution while minimizing distortion and artifacts such as chromatic aberration, ghosting and flaring.

SECRET
10. My last wish is a secret! :P hehehehehe!!

Well hope you enjoyed knowing what to get me for Christmas! Have a great day! HAHAHA! Please leave your comments or rate my post (be kind!)!!

Ciao!
