Nothing specifically I can think of this early in the morning!!

More or less all my stuff is Apple which puts me in a small band here I think. I had to use a friend's Window's PC the other day and it was like 1990 all over again...!

Lots of advice about various things  though which I am sure have figured in the buying process.

Bluetooth cellphone adapter for car (https://www.geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp?forumId=162&topicId=154820 - Xmas present for my wife this year)
Chromecast (since sold as I didn't like it!)
Amazon Fire TV (replaced the Chromecast, and is a far better product for our needs)
Astrotek headphones (ended up being unusable for running as they just fell out! Also confirms I don't like in-ear headphones)
Netflix
Getflix
Snap (as ISP)
YouShop
Free Amazon Appstore apps

Influenced other purchases including:
SVS PB2000 subwoofer
LG G3 phone (arrives today!)
Philips Fidelio soundbar (in-laws' purchase)
