Hey, got a Christmas wish list? Post it here and then let's compare
it to the "What did you *GET* for Christmas?" thread which will
come some time near the end of December.
Mine in order of preference:
Canon 20D
Nik*n D70 (it's the lens, really)
Canon 300D (gotta be black)
New slippers (mine are worn out) :D
Oh, I was gonna say... maybe we should just make this about
photography... so never mind the slippers (in case you were
thinking of buying me something on the list).
OK, your turn....

EF 500mm f/4L IS
EF 135mm f/2L
EF 85mm f/1.2L
If I had that.. I think I'd be "done" :)
But I'm not getting any of that for christmas.. I guarantee!

Less coal.
Or a smaller stocking, which is pretty much the same.

I gave myself a $0.00 credit card balance last Christmas (still have it).
I've decided that my 10D is sufficient for my needs for at least the next year.
A 100-400 L would be nice, but wouldn't significantly change my photography interests at the moment.
I've gotten rid of my SOHO which included servers, a bunch of desktops & monitors and a whack of networking gear and am now down to a space 1/4 the size of my former home office (but the kids have a really nice play room now :)). I have enough space for a triple LCD setup so I think I might start it off with one of these.

Yep, that's a *want* for Christmas... Along with World Peace, erradication of poverty, the sick healed etc. etc.

A new Manfrotto Tri-pod would be nice. I'm like 4walls. I really want a new pair of slippers. I know I'll get them because I get new ones every year anyway. But what do I really want? Contentment, relaxation and a roll of whine gums.http://www.portperry.com/bbs/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

Some socks... I'm likely to get them too, so that's nice! I don't want anything photographic because in all honesty, I have as much as I can reasonably carry to trackside already. I don't fancy employing a team of porters to shift any extra gear.

It should probably look a little like this

I wouldn't be surprised if that car used to be available as a Scalectrix model.. a hunt round the second hand market might produce one.
