Traveling Light with Tech

While I wait at the departure hall of Changi Terminal 2 for my flight to board, thought I mint give wordpress for iPad a whirl. The image you should see below is basically my entire complement of tech for this particular press junket, with the exception of my HTC Desire, which was used to shoot the above photo.

What I’m carrying: Flip Mino HD, mini tripod, an assortment of USB chargers and cables, the Apple camera connection kit, and finally, my iPad 16GB WiFi. Not lugging a digital camera around this trip as I plan to borrow one from some media friends based in KL, also because I couldn’t be arced to heave my Canon 550D around, and my Panasonic LX3 is on loan to a colleague.

Just heard the boarding announcement, see you all when I land.
