Stop! It?s A Really Bad Time To Buy Most Gadgets!

Did you know that your brain releases dopamine when it processes something new? At least that's what the Internet told me. Apparently dopamine is key in establishing a craving, which could be why ever-updating sites like blogs or Reddit are so popular. There is always something new. It could also be why some people always crave more gadgets. You're bored with your Galaxy SII and hope the Galaxy Nexus will satisfy that burning desire, which it probably will (unless you're MG). But don't do it -- at least not now. We're officially in a holding pattern. It's a really bad time to buy most consumer electronic products. This happens several times a year. I know there are some tempting post-holiday offers out there. But don't do it. Wait a few weeks. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
