The wonders of Akihabara

Stopped by Akihabara to pick up a converter cable for my ipod and some batteries for Mie's A/C controller ...well really I just wanted to wander around electric town' and look at all the gizmos. Like the GPS navigation systems for your car and the tables full of CMOS chips. My favorite vendor in Akihabara though is the Puzzle Man who operates from an umbrella covered stand in front of the train station, selling wooden boxes (which can only be opened by sliding hidden panels in a specific sequence) and other low tech tangible brain teasers.

Funny: The exact same stall in Akihabara seems to have caught your eye as it did mine a year ago.
