So you CAN NOT pick your Mobile Phone. What would be the next most essential gadget in your electronic universe?

This is funny.....

Now that Pad's are the cat's meow, they are now coming out with larger screens and full size keyboards??? Can't wait until they combine the two and make it so it conveniently folds up!

Reminds me of something but I can't put my finger on it....Lap something or another???

My PS3. Plays games, blu-rays, dvds and cds. Has full Internet and 3 different movie download sites right in the main menu screen. USB slots so I can put a jump drive in for movies, music, pics... Always gets updates for new features and software like being able to play 3D blu-rays.

This is very cool. I had looked at this when I was looking for a new laptop, but sadly I couldnt afford it. It to me does combine the laptop with the new pads, and it is very cool.

If we're talking small gadgets, it has to be my Apple iPod touch. I don't leave home without it. It has everything to keep me entertained!

But if we're talking larger items. My Computers for sure, iMac and my Netbook.

I love gagets but only 2 have really lived up to the initial hype/hope that they would be really cool and since I can't vote for my iphone i would say my logitec harmony remote.  It's so simple , my wife and 6 year old can switch from TV to DVD to Wii all day long with no problems (all in surround sound). 



Set up is a bit of a pain, but way easier than a macro enabled remote.  And this thing does not toggle when you hit a button, it remembers what is on and off.  And if all else fails, the help screen is easy and walks you through checking each device. 

I've actually plugged it in to my computer to tweak little settings a bunch of times. 

It's a bit high priced for remote, but f you have a wife or kids who can't handle the surround sound or you get tired of flipping to different devices or remotes to turn up the volume or change aspect ratio, this is the remote for you.

I really can't recommend this guy highly enough.
