Here's the deal with me: I've been cooped up sick and am itching to burn several hundred dollars for entertainment porpoises.
I've been windowshopping on Amazon and unable to find anything. What should I do?
(edit: can dolphins even be had for that cheap?) -

sellout.woot.com has an ipod touch that is curiously not selling out very fast.
if I were you, I'd buy a ukelele though. with hundreds of dollars, you can a get top of the line tenor. -
Kindle?

Music player needs: covered.
Ukelele: getting my thrills vicariously from this cutie. ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1tjC0mYfcrg )
Kindle: maybe when it gets color e-ink. On second thought, too redundant with existing gadgets.
Aside: I wish I were more of a creative type, instead of being such a consumer leech. </fevered self-loathing>
Edit mania: holy crap, youtube linkage and sarcastic html is a pox on my life -

My recurring money-spend passion is a SWEET cuckoo clock. There was one with two animated beer drinkers and a goat which was like a dream come true, but I missed out.

My wife has banned me from all cuckoo clock purchases. ESPECIALLY any Black Forest beer drinking goat ones. -
Is she making you get rid of a current collection? I CAN HELP.
-
She chopped me off at the knees before I ever even thought about running down the hill. Worse part was we honeymooned in Munich and there were so many tantalizingly awesome clocks I could have brought home.
-
I have had two cheaper clocks, but neither worked and one took too many floorshots when I lived in a shitty place.
My girlfriend is fine with the idea... she even bought me one of those little black forest looking houses with the two people somehow tell you the weather as a placeholder. -
After I win the lottery and don't have to work, when I'm not writing iPhone games for fun, I was planning on creating ridiculous mechanical objects de decor, one of which would most certainly be a cuckoo clock. Though it might have zombies that come out at night and be all brushed metal and blood instead of wood.
-
Oooh... Are you taking preorders?
-
Can I get mine in more of a battered concrete and twisted rebar?

*sigh* This zombie meme... just keeps rising from the dead.
Zombie pirates with ninja training ate my balls! -

So critical of wookiee's bulletproof money schemes!!

BTW: I still recommend the Kaossilator.

Fine. I want a Re-Animator version. And could someone pimp my hall with glass walls and lasers while we're at it. -

I'm surprised you haven't written an iPhone cuckoo clock app. -
Would require too much animation, and I'm a slow graphic artist.
Though I'm considering creating a Final Fantasy Tactics Advance -like game next, which would be pretty intense. -
Dude... I am a graphic artist who wants to help. Just point me in the right direction. Let's do this.
-
I am very very serious.
-
So I did a search and there's an app for that: Cuckoo Clock
Though the reviews are poor and they demand more configurable options. -
Kinky, that song was adorable!
-
If this is what people are settling for, they need our liberating ideas...
They could be living THIS nearly unbelievable fantasy....
-
Maybe the little people at the top can march around throwing their hands in the air to the tune "HERE IS SOMETHING YOU CAN'T UNDERSTAND" as the bitch at the bottom pops a cap in the back of the other dude's head.
That would fire me up every hour.
And the little pine cone pulls at the bottom would vibrate as if the bass were jacked up. -

I WILL PAY FOR THIS APP. -
WOOKIEE WHISPER AT ME THAT YOU WANT TO MAKE THIS DREAM COME TRUE.
-
Pretty sure there'd be licensing fees for use of the song :(
-
I can vouch for Scot's speedy delivery and endorse this plan with my entire being.
-
I have money ready and waiting to buy this thing!
To get round the licensing could you have a configuration option that allows you to set a track from iTunes and 'recommend' "Here is something you can't understand" -
well if I were to go the customization route.. then I'd have to have more hourly animations than the mosh troop, because that wouldn't work if they picked something like.. john mayer.
-
Write a new awesomer song and avoid the rights issues.
-
I have tons of guitars and friends. JESUS, MAN.... SOMEONE WORK WITH ME ON THIS.
-
ALSO SOMEONE GIVE ME AN IPHONE TO USE IT ON WHEN IT'S DONE.
-
i am enjoying this cuckoo clock parade of emotion; but something should really be swinging off those chains

Wish I could help, but I'm still the same consumer whore I was at the beginning of this thread. Aside, I ignored yours and Wookiee's suggestions at the time (ipod touch, Rock Band) but now find both items indispensible to good mental health. So, hearty retro thanks! -
-
I will pay up to $3.99 for this Bavarian timepiece.
-
Heck, I'd donate my $50 Google Adwords coupon to promoting it.
-
If I didn't have a job I would move on a host of wonderful app ideas I have. Unfortunately after working on a computer all day I don't want to work on a computer evenings or weekends. Projects Powerball and MegaMillions so far have been unfruitful.
-
how hard is this shit? I'll make it myself if someone explains to me how hard or not hard it's going to be.

Programming is hard.
But the Apps API may actually be the equivalent of lego. I dunno. -
-
yeah that's what I mean... I mean if there's some kind of easy code for "clock" and "animate a bird" then we're 90% of the way there!
-
Learning curve is steep, primarily the parts where you have to interact with Apple in any way.
-
For someone with rusty C skills (and who couldn't tell ObjC from C or C++ if it bit him) but who understands the basics of blitting and other graphics techniques, where's a good place to start reading?
-
Apple's site is terrible. Don't start there. Get the black covered book series, I forget the name.

Really? I had heard that Apple's developer documentation was pretty good. This is good to know. -
Black covered book series? Could you look when you have a chance? If it ain't a textbook, they don't carry it here in town, so I have to order everything.
