    Gah, I do the same... only with computer parts.
    Oh, nice, extra SATA cable, might be useful someday.
    Old computer case? All rusty? No, leave it there... might come in handy for a future modcase project.
    And the coolers too. Missing the wire? No problem, it still might become handy sometime.
    It still might become handy sometime.
    It still might become handy sometime.
    It still might become handy sometime.

    And with that, I ended up with 2 huge boxes filled with wires, computer parts, ac adapters, broken mice and keyboards, etc etc.

    I don't collect junk. Instead I keep accessories in case they might be useful, that turn into junk when I should have dumped them for free immediately. I have boxes full of RCA jack connectors (obsoleted by 1/8 audio jacks and HDMI), wired phone line accessories (no one has land lines), UHF coaxial antenna splitters (huh?), random AC wall warts (should die with USB power), etc.

    Freecycle anything you don't use immediately on craigslist!

    My father-in-law is like this. Only, his rooms are so full that it's like trying to shop in Japan-town in SF. You're afraid an avalanche of junk is just going to come tumbling down onto you and trap you.

    "I was doing better, I really was, and then I visited the DeAnza flea market in Cupertino last year, and it all fell apart again."

    going to a flea market in cupertino is like going to a street corner in the shittier parts of detroit. it's not posted on any signs, but i think it's fairly obvious what it is you'll find for sale in either of those places.

    The bezel makes no sense. What's the circular cutout supposed to be? It can't be a headphone jack. That would mean that the plug of every pair of current straight-jack Apple headphones would stick out of the side at a 90 degree angle. That would totally ruin pocketability

    Coloured iPhone 3G cases. Somebody tipped something like that on BGR I think.

    Of course, because when I'm looking for accessories for my $300 phone, I look to online Chinese wholesale retailers.

    If you look closely at the bezel it looks like the silver line no longer goes around the bottom. Also the top looks like the speaker has been moved up and is "attached" to the bezel.

    That's what I see. Looks like it could look really good.

    I hope not. LCD and not OLED? Apple will once again fall behind in terms of hardware with Sony and now MS releasing OLED PMPs.

    falling behind in sales but staying cutting edge in hardware = good for gizmodo-ians

    @USB_Humping_Dog: Common Sense is a misnomer as it assumes that everyone reasons at the same level as the person making the statement.
