I have $200 in Amazon gift cards that I need to use before they expire, so give me suggestions on crap to buy since there's nothing I really need. I'm thinking a DS Lite or new speakers or lots and lots of books.

The DS lite actually isn't a bad idea but rumor has it that they're released a new iteration with a camera really soon. So you could hold off on it and either a super cheap DS or a shiney new iteration of the DS.

I bought these

http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-THX-Certified-505-Watt-Digital-Surround/dp/B0002WPSBC/ref=pd_bbs_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1235444949&sr=8-1

Roughly 50% off its retail price, and in your range. Once you have these speakers you're never gonna (give you up) wanna go back to anything else, guaranteed. I get theatre-like sound quality when I watch downloaded movies, listen to music, etc. it fucking owns and is the single best thing i've bought recently.

Are you talking about the DSi? It doesn't really seem like an upgrade in a lot of ways, besides the thinner case, and I guess battery life is significantly worse.

Oh this blog reminded me about Amazon... I have an Amazon Visa and I have about 100 dollars in coupons if I cash them in.

I think it might be a better deal to save up the points and use them on airfare though :-/

Is that how you go the gifts?

Yeah, DS Lite + R4/M3/other iteration is a pretty good deal.

Do I need to get a R4/M3/CycloDS + a memory card?


^That's a sweet deal, but I already have a 500gb USB2.0/eSATA/firewire external hd.
