or newest gadget.

I have a firey lust for my 32g iPhone 3g s, I didnt like the first ones, but this model is the shit.

I also just bought a Maxtor External Desktop Hard Drive which is awesome, backed everything up on it and now all my pictures are safe in the...err....safe.

Whatchoo got?

External hard drive is definitely good, Crackberry Bold (I just couldn't get the hang of texting on an iPhone), and this wine opener that doesn't pierce the cork, Hippie-insta-bag, Bore Snake.

For Ma's birthday in April, I bought her an ipod nano (4th gen, 8gig) along with some foldable dj headphones.

When she went away and forgot to take it with her last month, I borrowed these for the week. Oh wow. I had forgotten the joy of bus journeys with soundtrack. I used to go everywhere with my walkman, and later with my portable cd player. I even had a very early, pre-ipod mp3 player (a Zepp, which was very stylish and came in a little case, but was huge compared to modern players and could only fit about 15 songs on it :P)*. but i only used that for a short while. I haven't had portable music as a fixture in my life for almost a decade. I used to walk for miles with my headphones on, went everywhere with music.

So, I have decided when Dad's money comes through I am going to treat myself to an I-pod nano and some good headphones (I hate those stupid little ear piece things). I can't wait!

[eta] *actually, thinking bout it, it may have been a Yepp, not Zepp....can't recall now.

iPhone 3G and stereo bluetooth headset hands down for me. I'm also pretty partial to my cheap, but entirely capable, Acer laptop.

I have that same Leatherman squirt.

Completely useful. Between that and my mini-maglite, I can get things fixed anywhere.

If I had a Creative Zen I am sure it would be my favorite gadget.

and if a bore snake can be a gadget then let me just add a decent camera, the ds2 and the wii fit to my wish list of favorite gadgets

Iomega 1TB External HD.
Amazing how much music one can store on the sucker.

it is know in my family as "the tool"

If i leave it in the wrong pair of pants or forget it, I feel totally weird. like the weight of it in my left front pocket has become a part of the natural weight of my body, and I am off balance if its not there.
