What’s in your gadget bag?

Gizmodo has a series of articles asking web celebs what gadgets they haul around with them.

I thought it was pretty interesting so here is my list.

Timbuk2 Commute: This is a great bag, blue and grey, waterproof, padded
bottom, tons of pockets and a laptop sleeve. I picked it up at EMS for way too
much money but it’s worth it for all the crap I carry around in it.

iBook G4 or Thinkpad T20: Depends if I’m going to work or doing my own
stuff. I like both these laptops a lot, if my ipod and my camera both played
nice with the linux thinkpad I’d think about just switching back. My whole
friggin life is on that iBook though…

iPod 40gig: I used to have a 10 gig then I upgraded, now I keep movies and a ton of music on it, as well as a back up of my thesis.

Aiptek DV3100: This is my digital camera and digital video camera, it has
128mb CF on it and can take about 60 minutes of avi’s or a ton of 3 mega
pixel photos. It’s a nice camera but the focus is a little shady and there
is no flash which sucks.

Gameboy SP: It’s the blue/purple one. Right now I’m playing Golden Sun 2 and Metroid Fusion, I’ve been on the last guy forever...

Moleskin: Yeah, one of those overpriced notebooks. It doesn’t run out of
batteries or fail to sync with whatever computer I’m running, plus it’s more
fun to doodle in. Until a PDA is more useful than a pad of paper I’m not
keeping one.

Cups:
A Nalgene water bottle and a Starbucks Coffee Tumbler. I’ve had the nalgene bottle forever and it’s pretty beat up but holding up fine. I just got the
‘decorate your own’ starbucks cup because I get a cafe mocha everyday, no
reason to waste that many cups. I put a trimmed down 8×10 photo I took in
Venice to decorate it.

Misc: Leatherman Pulse (thumb locks for the accident prone), a few blank cd chargers and cables, a novel (Good Omens), usually whatever computer book
I’m working through (Java Swing from O’Reilly), plasitc knife and fork, and
some pens I stole from work.
