My work still has those mice kicking around. To be honest I was kind of hoping fora review of the dick smith 3 from the main show... it looks really close to the Samsung YP-U6 that I loved to death. I wonder if it plays in order of file name or by orde rof copy?

Dick Smith stores had a certain smell to them. The stench of cheap electronics.

Turn the mega nugget into a really good AMP/DAC with a touchscreen with James the bird saver! It'll be so cool and actually useful to you (to a degree) maybe mod bluetooth into it too, the case is large and flat enough that an iPod's guts could easily fit.

Well that was a lot of fun. I remember inheriting my older sis's actual discman when she adulted into a proper MP3 player. Kicked the pants off my Memorex that only have 2-5 sec. ESP.

I used to work for Verizon Wireless here in America and I can confirm that Kyocera is still around and still makes flip phones. And awful smartphones if I remember correctly.

Good old Dick. I've been digitising old VHS tapes for the ads and having a good laugh at classics like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VM466P79-Mk

Oi mate I need a PX625 battery for me camera could you have a squiz in the catalogue to see if they have any? Would go to me local shop but the phone book doesn't have them anymore it's weird. Man I miss Dick Smith though, 2002 was right around the time I first remember going to the Power House that was near me and it just used to be the coolest shop ever. Was pretty sad seeing it slowly decline over time, and when they rebranded all the Dick Smiths the stock just IMMEDIATELY got thinner and thinner until it closed up.

Probably my favourite After Show episode ever! Would love to see more stuff like this in the future

they stopped selling electronic stuff about 5-7 years after this catalogue. shame really (they pulled the data info out the back of their catalogues at the same time). i learned electronics from their Funway series. jaycar doesnt have anything to compare with Funway 1 (my daughters wants to learn) Those Powerhouses were the start of the end.

Some dude bought the rights to the Funway IP from the DSE liquidators a few years back, and he's set up a website. Looks like he's trying to get some of the Funway kits back into production, but not much seems to have happened over the last couple of years. Try searching "Funway Electronics" (idk if Patreon would flag it as spam if I left the link here).

I remember portable cassette players too but that wasn’t my time. CD players were where it was at.... until like 2005 when everyone brought MP3 players to school. I actually won a CD player in an arcade machine and I remember how excited I was because the only portable player we owned belonged to my brother. Not gonna lie, this catalog (not catalogue haha) brought back memories to me too.

Kyocera makes some pretty good stuff nowadays, pretty durable, and cheapish.

Bought a pair of Samson SR850s cuz you said so. While chatting up my wife during quarantine disco in the kitchen Friday night, I mentioned I need a new pair of headphones to avoid disturbing her while I'm teaching myself to play the piano. She said, "What's wrong with the ones you have? (Sennheiser HD 202)" "They're crap and they hurt my ears." "How much are the new ones?" "42 dollars" "Go away."

Ah yes! Those radio alarm clocks. They were already perfected back then, the basic features should be BEEP BEEP or being able to wake up to the radio. Some of them that I've tried that has been produced later do the thing where they think that they needed to add unnecessary "features" that essentially just was there to to make everything extra contrived. Seems like they did that a lot around the decade shift 10's, trying to invent the wheel on stuff that should have simple controls. Like, I have a low end microwave, does it have any of the following buttons; "power" or "time"? Of course not, there's a lot of random buttons, and there's two that's "10g" and "100g". Thanks. To use it I press the huge white circle in the middle that says "Jet start", which starts the microwave on max for 30 seconds. Thanks, what if I just want to run it on low for a couple of seconds (like if I'm melting chocolate or something?) Then I need to find the manual to figure out how to how to even set lower power and specify time. Couldn't they just have added all those extra "features" that I don't care to use anyway while also keeping the stupid simple standard controls as well? Telling you, around the turn of the decade 2010, they tried to rebrand already cheap and optimal user friendly controls with new "features" and "useability" to get a competitive edge in their "usefulness". But that's reinventing the wheel. I bought a somewhat cheaper alarm clock ~5 years ago, and there's just five buttons on it that you remember how to use easily without the need to pull up the manual (not optimal due to cutting costs I guess, and even though changing the time or the alarm can feel like a bit of a hassle it only has buttons for stopping, snoozing, and then adjusting time. And the (probably extremely cheap easy to read and big display.) All it ever needs for basically everyone that buy it. Nobody wants to feel like they have to struggle to adjust their settings on their toaster. The traditional style that we are used to is what sells, even though the radiant control type of toasters (commercially available in the 60's) are actually way better since the control knob adjusts at which surface temperature the bread will pop up (its color basically) instead of just time/power. Some technology has already peaked/plateaued and should be regarded as such. Stupid companies trying to sell is "improved" versions of such tech &gt;:O

I had a Purple game boy color too! Atomic purple and the speaker hasn't worked for at least 15 years

Heya, not sure how it is in SA but Jaycar is worth looking into, a lot of mediocre to average to handy things have come from Jaycar. Apparently the old Jaycar catalogues are very 'of the times', some stores keep them still... Ask around ;)
