For some reason my wife thinks I like gadgets a bit.

Don't want to disappoint you, but that list is considered pretty short :D

We've had lists like this in the past, and you'd probably be considered a light traveler with that kind of kit ;)

After seeing the lists in the past I was thinking the same thing. GUY999 may want to focus on taking the lite packing crown if he can remove a few items!^

wow I did a search and couldn't find anything, but I am leaving out my digital slr and tripod and my 2nd laptop, although it looks like my wife is taking that, and I'm going to be on the train every other day, so this stuff all has to be easily packable.

On my upcoming bareboat sailing trip in the BVI, I'm planning on taking:

- Nikon D70s
- Nikon 50mm 1.8 lens
- Nikon 18-200 VR lens
- Nikon Remote
- SLR GorillaPod
- Extra CF Card
- Extra Nikon Battery
- Nikon Charger
- Canon SD750
- Canon SD750 Underwater Case
- Extra SD Card
- Extra Canon Battery
- Garmin Colorado 300 w/ Marine Maps for navigation and geotagging
- External GPS Antenna
- iPod Classic
- iPod Headphones
- FM iPod Transmitter
- 12v-110v Inverter
- 13" Macbook
- Macbook Charger
- USB Cables (for iPod and Garmin and Cameras)

And this is just in electronics :)

ahh yeah, i forgot my ipod classic and the gorillapod... thanks for reminding me.. goonna have to make that list a little longer.

Ha! 6 phones! That is quite the selection..

I forgot to add my Android G1 to my list as well.

Call me crazy, but I collect phones and this trip I'm shedding some to be placed in my gallery of phones.. :)

Here is what I take:

BB 8830
Sprint roaming SIM
USB charge cable
Nokia N73 UMTS phone
2-3 SIMs for different countries
Nokia charger
Wired handsfree
DoCoMo UMTS phone
DoCoMo charger
Nikon P5000 camera
extra battery
Sennheiser PCX250 noise reduction headphones (sometimes Bose QC2)
adapters, AAA batteries
Thinkpad T60
Universal AC/DC charger with airplane adapter
Sprint EVDO card
Thin ethernet cable
Garmin eTrex Venture Cx (sometimes (Garmin Quest)
extra AA batteries (sometimes car cradle and charger for Quest)
Assortment of USB flash sticks, SD cards, USB readers
Laser pointer

Most of the adapters and cables go into a travel pouch. So never had a problem leaving sometime behind.

It's roughly what I'd take, too (swap in/out a few items or different brands). Not proud of it; I'd love to travel with less.

But a quick question: I have one of those Lenovo X60T tablets (with the high-res screen... love it). But it has a built-in SD card reader and a PC card slot, so I am not what this is about:


10. AFT PROExpress-7 ExpressCard Reader. allows me to read sd,sdhc,memory stick via my tablet.


ExpressCard?

Some Thinkpads are equipped with a smart card reader instead of flash card reader. I have one of those ExpressCard adapter to read flash cards too.

netbook
camera
phone
mp3 player
usb mouse
proper headphones (no puny earbuds) with an airline adapter
gps
assortment of sd and usb flash storage
power plug converter
appropriate chargers and a micro usb cable (for 3 of the devices)

i try to avoid anything more than this...and the need never arises...

of course ill ditch flying with the gps and camera if its somewhere domestic and i know the place already...

a multi sim phone might help (a little) or an iphone (with the added bonus of being a gps)...less risk of leaving something behind aswell @:-) ....

Unless the iPhone is unlocked, you can't do use multiple SIMs with it.

Quite true, however since this upcoming trip is to actually go back home to SE Asia, I've decided to take a few off and just place it (as I posted earlier) in my gallery.

What I'm going to actually shed are the N93i, BB Pearl, and Sony Ericsonn S500i; since I have the N96, BB Bold, N97 and still awaiting the Sony Ericsonn Idou to preorder it.

Unless the iPhone is unlocked, you can't do use multiple SIMs with it.

I don't know why, but I don't really like the i-Phone.. if my experiences with my i-Pod touch told me something is that it's hard for my big fingers to do anything with it.

I have a x60t tablet too, but i don't love the screen, i have a sony laptop with a prettier screen plus i must be old but the screens on tablets are so small.

also that expresscard thing reads 7 different types of card, my tablet will just read sd cards... but i want to read everything.

netbook
camera
phone
mp3 player
usb mouse
proper headphones (no puny earbuds) with an airline adapter
gps
assortment of sd and usb flash storage
power plug converter
appropriate chargers and a micro usb cable (for 3 of the devices)

i love the idea of proper headphones, but i usually only wear them on the flights so it kinda sucks carrying them for 2 weeks just for the flights.

01. Asus Netbook
02. LED Light for 1.
03. Sony World Radio
04. Sony Personal Radio
05. Assorted USB drives
06. Sony Digital compact Camera
07. Sony NC70 Headphones
08. Adapter cables for getting Audio from Netbook to Hifi
09. Nikon D55 + 2 Lenses
10. Blackberry 8120
11. Samsung Solid Phone (not Triband but everything proof)
12. Motorola Wsomething phone (Triband but crap)
13. Marine Radio
14. MP3 player
15. Smaller headphones for beach
16. LED Torch
17. USB Chargers for the above that will use it
18. Chargers for the above that won't do so off USB
19. Nintendo GBA
20. Tripod
21. Adapter plug for UK/US
22. GPS (Maybe)
23. USB Mouse

That list is by no means exhaustive and I probably will take more when I'm packing anything in sight. All fits into my Nomad bag and I then pray it goes through the sizer at LHR/BOS.

I'm on the "travel light" side... =P

* Point & Shoot camera
* Canon camera + 2 lenses
* Nokia E71 (GPS, mail, WiFi, notes and backup camera)
* Universal Memory card reader
* Laptop
* iPod
* PSP
* Mini.Speakers
* Headphones
* Chargers and cables

It is indeed a nice list, but as scottc noted in post #2, it is pretty short compared to some of the lists we have had in the past. I dont' want to do a "whose list is bigger" thing, but I know some of my int'l travel lists have been easilly twice this long and I probably wouldn't consider services like boingo in there, otherwise it would be three times as long. I think a neat post/query would be, HOW DOES ONE BEST CARRY ALL THIS STUFF?

i use a little rick steves packing pod, it holds all the of the cables, but i'm thinking about getting 2 different or 3 different little bags because then i have to search for everything and then i use twisty ties to loop all of the cables.

-Rangefinder camera with lens
-2 lenses (going to pare this down to 1)
-MacBook Air
-chargers/power adapters, Moshii card reader, iPhone etc.
Weighed in at ~12lbs. total for all gear, including bag.

That's the most I'd want to carry. Ever.
