Buy a Domo-Kun!

What in the name of all that is good and fuzzy is *that* ???![Biggrin](https://www.applefritter.com/sites/all/modules/smiley/packs/kolobok/biggrin.gif)
Those crazy Asians....
Anyways, back on topic - whats cool and cheap? I presume Mac stuff won't work over here (Different Alphabet etc...) but what will? I've heard Vodafone phones do but I'm not 100% sure and what about GP32s? Are they as cheap to order off the web?
How about a square watermelon?

Regardless of the fact that if I had a friend going over there they'd be bringing me back a few grand's worth of cool crap like that Domo-Kun thing(:D)... this guy wants **electronics**.
Anyone?
Feel free to post random links eh?

I cannot avert my eyes from that link and the spinning head of Colin Mockery and the cameo of Elton John and the strange desire I have to drink Budwiser while watching Star Wars:PM It is cool and yet strangely disturbing and will most likely give my nightmares about hobos in my room and my inability to play guitar while Mr Bean and Pee Wee Herman mambo around the room...
OH GOD, GET THE SONG OUT OF MY HEAD!!! I DON'T EVEN SPEAK JAPANESE!!!

Check some of the japanese websites for home electronics from Pioneer and the like. With little more than an electrical adapter, you may find the sky is the limit.
