I have nothing in my pockets at the moment, but I usually carry with me…

1. Wallet, containing Metrocard, Mastercard, Student ID card, other assorted cards and sometimes actual cash (Paypass readers and EFTPOS with no limit are both becoming more prominent, which means I rarely carry cash on me anymore). Also often contains a bunch of receipts aging up to six months old with faded print because I am lazy.

2. Phone. Elliot, my trusty HTC Desire. Poor thing has suffered so much unintentional abuse I’m surprised he still works to this day. Due for replacement in late September, hopefully with some kind of Lumia Windows Phone 8 device, but I’ll keep it around as a spare like I did with my old one.

3. Zune HD. Yet to find something that works as brilliantly as it does for playing music and the occasional video. No need for iTunes is a bonus as well ;D

4. Keys. So I can get into things.

5. Sometimes, sunglasses, because the sun is bright and I don’t like bright.

Well, I have three of four pockets “filled.
One with a Samsung Galaxy GT-I9000, another holds the key ring which recently got reduced to the absolute necessary (under those a nameplate which doubles as makeshift screwdriver and bottle opener) and my wallet.
The fourth pocket held a type of african seed my sister brought me as a charm but I fear I misplaced it somewhere :/

Right now;
1. Keys (duh)
2. Usually my company ID which has an integrated RFID chip for building access
3. Small EM RFID tag for those doors not equipped with a mifare reader
4. Small plastic bag with a couple of rack mount screws and nuts
5. Small wallet
6. Plastic case with sunglass thingy for my glasses
7. Flashlight
8. Small screwdriver and bit-set. I don’t currently own a multitool, and I only really need a screwdriver anyway most of the time.
9. Pen and paper. You just can’t beat this when you need to take quick notes, especially when it involves drawing something. Quick network diagram of a rack for example.
10. HTC Desire S. Phone that I got from work. What I’d really like is a phone with a hardware keyboard, and the possibility of connecting to both serial ports and wired Ethernet. Then I wouldn’t even need to bring my laptop for configuring/troubleshooting network stuff. Anybody got any ideas for that? Maybe some bluetooth serial adapter?

I love having stuff with me, as much as possible, even if I rarely use it. Recently bought a pair of Blackhawk Lightweight Tactical Pants. SO MANY POCKETS! I can easily fit all of the above and still have room to spare :D

Well let’s see,

1. iPhone 4S – left pocket for the phone exclusively.

2. Keyring(s), lighter and smokes, change,

3. Backpocket – money, bankcards.

I never carry a wallet. I tend to stuff it with things I really don’t need.
When I’m not wearing a coat things do get a little crowded every now and then.

My HTC Lexikon, soon to be replaced with a Samsung Galaxy S III. The SGS3 will also eliminate my need for the tablet as its only necessary advantages over my phone is an FFC for video calls and 34GB of space, the SGS3 has 32 internal and swapable SDXC cards that will hold 64GB.

Swiss Army Champion Plus (Everything except pliers, may upgrade to a champ at some point though if I decide I need pliers on me at all times)

Comb

Wallet

Carabiner on my belt loop with my keys and a 32GB Thumb Drive.

– A handy computer, like pictured above.
– Hardgraft Heritage Cardcase for payment and identification cards, also for the stupid bills you get in stores and other small paper. However, I’ll look for a store selling the Freitag Alan wallet and if it works, I’ll buy and use that. Analog money really sucks, except for privacy.
– One key for flat and secure drawer each, on a key ring with leather piece included in the Hardgraft shipment.

That was a good blog post and congratulations on the weight-management. ;)

> What do you carry in your pocket these days?

1. Wallet (T.H.E. Wallet by Spec.-Ops.) it has a little zipper pocket for change, but I use it to carry two spare batteries for my smart-phone.

2. Samsung Galaxy SII with my library of 300+ books stored on the 32 GB micro-sd with room to spare. (Only 10% used!)

3. Large keyring with house key, van key, Nano flashlight, and Leatherman Micra.

That’s all I need! :)
