best new buy
 
So tell me, what's the best or most enjoyable new electronic toy that you bought rfecently? It can be anything, but nonsensical stuff like an electronic dog has my preference :)

It's been a while since I've actually bought an electronic "toy"...although this Christmas we did buy a USB Wheel for my dad to use in racing games, he was really happy about that one. ;)

ninikins 06-10-2006 03:22 PM

I just love gimmicky stuff, like those games that were all the rage around Xmas time, those that can guess what your ethinking of depending on your answers to questions. never bought one though

I just got a new router and dsl modem in one... But that is not very much pizazz.. I liked getting it set up though.

As for last gadget, I would say my slingbox.

ninikins 06-11-2006 05:06 PM

Contemplating getting a PSP but I don't know how much I'll use it...still, it looks pretty cool.

Slashmire 06-12-2006 04:03 PM

well I got a DS Lite yesterday...I didn't have any DS so I wasn't buying the same console twice, I don't regret it.

ninikins 06-14-2006 07:02 AM

The most advanced thing that I bought myself some time ago is a PS? :) not THAT advanced huh?

An electric motorcycle, and a storm-Launcher ATV RC vehicle.

I did buy a couple of electric dogs, but I'm selling them without opening the boxes.

Oh, I got a Velocity All Region Divx-Compatible DVD Player w/ USB & MMC/SD Card Slots (for using a external hard drive), and a Lite-On LVW-5115GHC+ Dual Format DivX Certified DVD Recorder W/TV Tuner from www.thetechgeek.com .

As for me I haven't got anything recently. You might say I'm out of money at the moment, but once that stops being the case I intend to buy an interesting new portable audio player from Meizu, though by then I may have changed my mind. It is high time I get something to that effect isn't it. How long have MP3 players been around after all.

I guess it would be the xbox 360 I won, and received just before Christmas. Thank You Pepsi/Doritos Canada.

Ruslan 04-11-2008 08:42 PM

It was two gadgets:
Projector JVC DLA-HD1 (awesome devise) and mp3-player iRiver E100 - it rocks as well, hehe :)

I can also notice PlayStation 3 game console, but I can't say that it's gadget. It's classic!

Digerati 04-24-2008 08:03 PM

My new PC, probably. :)
Also, Rockband.

slugbug 04-24-2008 08:17 PM

I guess the last thing I bought for my PC was a Galaxy 8800GT.

Some HDMI cables for a sweet 60 HDTV :clap:

I got myself a Logitech Z-5500 Digital speaker system.Best thing my money could buy. :)

I recently bought a Canon SD750. Really nice camera for the price!

kevnam 05-31-2008 08:25 AM

got a 8gb ipod nano! I can't believe just how small this thing is!

cablehiccups 05-31-2008 09:11 AM

I picked up a brand new pny 8400 gs video card for my htpc build...

26 bucks - the guy bought it, cooked his mobo when he took his computer apart to upgrade it and then sold all of his stuff dirt cheap.

It was a great buy and well within my budget (which is not that big!).

pchangover 05-31-2008 11:52 AM

Ummm... a set of 5 pioneer speakers, yamaha receiver, polk audio sub I would say. Most fun I have had in a long time.

madspartus 06-04-2008 12:50 PM

i love my new lenovo x61s laptop, so small.

other than that i went watercooling recently and i love the silence

I bought an RC heli. I've had the cheap $20 ones and decided to get a nice $200 range one to learn how to fly. I went with a dual prop model to train off of before I went to a full 3D flight model. So far I've only crashed once and it was a wind issue. It gets about 45 minutes of flight per charge which is a blast.
