Gadgets are my best playmates and my favorite birthday gifts. Though romantic and idealistic at heart, I have always harbored a passion for them. Mom gifted me Sony Playstation 3 this Christmas. Nothing could have been better. The gizmo freak that I am, was searching for the latest trends in gadgets this year. And this is what I came across:
Digital Cameras- The next generation of digicams promise WiFi capabilities. Most of them can send pictures directly to the printer, upload photos to your PC and so on. I call that a high tech birthday gift for generation Z.
Nikon Coolpix P1 ($167- $249.99) , EasyShare - One Digital Camera (6.4MP, 2832x2128, 3x Opt, 256MB Internal Memory, SD/MMC ($79.17- $ 179.99), PowerShot SD430 Digital Camera ($429.95)
3G Cell Phones- Speed Dialing- Cell phones can act as a cool gadget and funky accessory as well.
Motorola RAZR V3c - cellular phone with digital camera / digital player - CDMA2000 1X ($ 228)
Samsung SCH A990 - cellular phone with digital camera / digital player - CDMA2000 1X ($239.90- $349.99)
Treo 700W smartphone - Verizon (CDMA, Bluetooth, 1.3MP, 128MB, SDIO/MMC, Windows Mobile 5)
Ultra portable Laptops - Weighing in at less than 4 pounds, they’re considerably easier to carry. But up until now, what you gained in comfort you lost in performance, features and battery life. That’s beginning to change for the better.
Lenovo ThinkPad X60s 1702 - Core Duo L2400 1.66 GHz - 12.1" TFT
VAIO SZ280P/C Notebook (2GHz Core Duo, 2GB DDR2, 120GB, DVD+RW DL, Windows XP Pro, 13.3" TFT)
HDTVs- Analysts predict that the average 42-inch flat screen HDTV will drop to $1400 by this time next year with 50-inch screens hitting the $2000 mark. As always, good deals come to those who wait.
Samsung LN-S3251D 32" LCD TV (16:9, 1366x768, 4000:1, HDTV) ($870)
Panasonic TC 32LX60 - LCD TV - 32"
Other cool Gadgets
Toshiba HD-XA1 - HD DVD player
Heat Sensitive Spoons – These spoons change color immediately if the food you are about to pounce on is too hot to handle. Meant for all foodies, who would like to save their tongues from getting scorched.
Portable Purse Light- To prevent groping for the most essential things in the dark, these 'searchlights' sure come in handy.
Numark iDJ iPod DJ Mixer - The iDJ is a 2-channel mixer that enables mobile DJs and iPod enthusiasts to seamlessly integrate their portable music libraries with other music and sound reinforcement systems
Beer Opening LEGO Robot- An uncomplaining bartender brimming with non stop energy. What else could one wish for?
