It's not computer hardware, but I don't know on which group to ask.
I'm having doubts what shaving device to buy.

This are my shortlisted ones :

panasonic es518a
braun 3770
philips hq 468 micro +
philips hq 444

They are all around same price.
Has anybody good/bad expirience with any of this models ?

Not sure but I'd go with a FireWire version over USB.

Bah! Those firewire models are overrated -- usb is much cheaper. All
you do anyway is occasional recharging and downloads of statistics on
whisker size and shaving frequencies to make fancy Excel charts out of
and compare with other shaving freaks on alt.comp.hygiene.bathroom
anyway, so what's the use of firewire? I would be far more concerned
with getting a good color resolution LCD -- those old 620x480 b/w
shavers just aren't cool anymore.

I would highly recommend the Panasonic ES8093 Linear Drive Wet & Dry Shaver.
I've had many shavers over the years and this is by far the best I've ever
used. Almost as good as a wet shave.

Cheers.

Thanks, but 200 $ is too much for a shaver.
Those one in the first post are around 50 bucks.
