NEW TOYS HAVE JUST ARRIVED!!!

My PowerBook G4 needed to retire after about fifty airport X-ray machines and a couple hundred thousand images viewed and a few dents and dings. It also only had USB 1.0 which is not the best thing for a digital photographer. So out with the old (I'm sending it home to the wife) and in with the new! It's a beautiful new 17" MacBook Pro!

I've been wanting to go entirely paperless with my office for about 3 years now and I finally found a fast scanner that works with mac. Actually Gary Fong found it so thanks Gary!! It's the Fujitsu ScanSnap.

Ok, so on to the new Blackberry 8700g! Fortunately for me, while at Disneyland the other day with my wife and good friends Josh and Mindy, my blackberry screen was somehow smashed. I think it happened on Indiana Jones. I noticed it when I was on Space Mountain which was weird because the screen looked like a window to outerspace with stars and everything!

Last but definitely not least is my new Sony DVDirect! This was actually a birthday gift from someone other than myself. I got to the office yesterday just as UPS was pulling away and I stopped them to see if there was anything for me. The UPS girl was so nice and jumped in the back to find a box for me from my good friend Ray Santana. What a cool (and extremely generous) gift!! It's a dvd burner that will backup my 4GB CF cards to DVD without needing a computer! And it's fast too! Uncle Ray, you are the best! Ray and I are traveling together to shoot a wedding in Monaco next month. I can't wait! I'm bringing my all of my new toys except the scanner unless I think of something I can use it for on the trip :)
