Greetings from J-List October 26, 1997

Peter Payne by Peter Payne
26 years ago
in Your Friend in Japan

We’re having a nice, quiet weekend here in Japan. It’s cool, but not cold, and we’re getting some shopping and relaxing done, and late at night I have been putting serious hours into Civilization II, recently released for the Macintosh (you can find it at http://www.cdw.com/. I will make a small update today, though.

Our deadline for ordering calendars has passed, although we’re going to leave the calendar information up for a while, until the 5th of November or so. The reason we set the deadline early is that we wanted to be sure to get orders in in advance to allow the calendar company to get the calendars to us before they start becoming unavailable. Unless the calendar you want is extremely popular, we should still be able to order and get your calendar for you — so let us know what you want. Note that payment by credit card is the best way to do this, since we don’t have to inconvenience you if the calendar is not available.

I hadn’t mentioned it before, but along with the two new Final Fantasy action figures, we have available three dolls in the Sentimental Graffiti Collection. These are soft vinyl dolls of high quality by Tsukuda Hobby, and they are nice, although without the very high attention to detail of the first vinyl dolls from Lyceen (the ones that came with the CD ROM, and have removeable cloth panties instead of molded plastic ones). These are much more reasonably priced, though. See these and other items on the toys page.

After spending some minutes fawning over the Akira Fubuki and Ozawa Madoka posters, I decided to take some digital pics of the pages inside. They are at http://www.jlist.com/personalstuff/calendarspics.html. Note my camera is just a digital, but you can certainly see the great professionalism and high quality of the pictures inside. Let us know if you want to make an order.

I have some new screenshots of web browsing on the Newton Messagepad. See my Newton Pre-Buyers’ Guide (http://www.jlist.com/peter/newtonrev.html).
