drcuriosityI got myself one of these today from the helpful folks at Warehouse Stationery:
On the last day of a 25% off sale, so I was fair chuffed. It was a bit difficult to get home - chair boxes are rather bulky beasties - but it's up and assembled now and has been comfortably seating me for the last half an hour or so. My last chair, a venerable 15+ years old, finally gave out in one of the leg welds, so I've had to retire it. They just don't make chairs like that anymore.
I also looked in at a music store on the way to get the aforementioned chair, and spied a Miditech Midistudio 2 USB/MIDI keyboard. I don't know Miditech's reputation, and I've not witnessed the Teutonic might of the Magix Samplitude SE software that apparently comes bundled with it, but it looks like it might be a worthy successor to my venerable Yamaha PSR-3 (which I'm considering ripping apart to experiment with circuit bending). The problem being that it's worth NZ$400, and I don't know if my budget can really be convinced to stretch that far just yet. Hrm.
Lazyweb, does anyone know much about this kind of hardware, and in particular whether this kind of unit is any good? At the moment I'm really just wanting something that I can plug into a computer and sync with other programs for playing-around-with-composition purposes, rather than some kind of Über-synth Of Doom. Any insights would be appreciated. (And if you know good places to shop for synths around Christchurch, that'd be nice too.) Danke schön.

Motorola Unlocking via IMEI is Here
Date: 2007-05-03 05:19 am (UTC)Apparently you can unlock Motorola mobile phones simply using the IMEI number, cutting out the need for a USB cable to link your phone to your PC. Just used it with my razr v3 and a rokr e1, and it certainly works, but what do i do now with an unlocked phone?
It's for sale at 5 Pounds (UK), and i was wondering whether anyone had used it before. Sorry if i've posted in the wrong section!. Please Help!!
