My Wishlist of Gadgets

I would say that I realized my interest for gizmos pretty late in life. The realization came when I was looking for a new cellphone packed with all features. This was back in 2006 and I had bought Sony Ericsson K750i at that time after going through a lot of reviews on gsmarena.com, phonearena.com, cnet.com, etc. That was the time since when I have always had keen interest in knowing about gizmos, and also possessing them.

As of now, I have these and I would really like to extend this list further:

1) Lenovo R61 Thinkpad Laptop - Thanks to MET ;)
2) Sony Cybershot Digicam - Diwali shopping 2008
3) Apple Ipod Touch 8gb - Birthday gift 2009
4) Nokia E72 - Birthday gift 2010

Following is a non exhaustive list of gizmos I am looking to buy for myself, hopefully in near future:

1) DSLR camera - Good photography needs good equipment and I think I should have a DSLR as I enjoy photography. Infact, with a DSLR to play with, I might even join Photography courses! Nikon and Canon are supposed to be the best for DSLR. Can anyone let me know a good entry level DSLR model?

2) Camcorder - Still images do not always capture all emotions, but moving pictures do. Camcorder is surely something I would want to have. Sony is supposed to be the best for Camcorders. Let me know which entry level model to go for?

3) Apple Macbook - I am an Apple fan and really want to possess a Macbook. The look, the feel, the apparatus of Macbook is simply awesome. It's stylish, its unique. Not everyone has it, not even me, yet!

4) Apple Ipad - Another great product from Apple, the Ipad is sleek, stylish and a fun gadget. However, Samsung has also come up with a similar product called Galaxy Tab. It costs half as much has Ipad, has a 3.0 mega pixel camera with LED flash(absent in Ipad) and sd card slot to expand memory(again, absent in Ipad). Seems to be a good alternative, yet, Ipad is Ipad!

5) Bose music system and headphones - Perhaps the best in business, the music system of Bose is truly amazing. The headphones are absolutely classy. However, Sennheiser is also a good alternative to Bose when it comes to headphones. I have tried one of my friends Sennheiser and loved it, would like to try my one of my own now!

6) QWERTY device - I am a fan of candy bar style cellphones and I really want to have a QWERTY device soon. My options are Blackberry and Nokia E series. My expectations from the device is to have the ability of providing fun and work both. The device should have a good camera, good music output with universal 3.5 mm jack along with all essential things needed in a business oriented device. I am more prone to get myself a Nokia QWERTY device soon.

7) Sony PSP - A fun gaming device is cool to have with you, isn't it? Best part about PSP is that you can use it on the go while when at home can also attach it to your TV and use the device as a joystick and play games on the big screen, provided your TV has HDMI ports available. Still, its a fun device, great gaming tool, also good to carry your music, videos and other stuff.

8) Timex Digital Watch - I have always been a fan of digital watches because of their sport look. I had a Timex digital watch but I lost it sometime back. Really want to have one for me soon. I am not very aware about any other brands, apart from Timex, who are known for digital watches, so guys, please help!

9) Portable USB harddisk - My portable usb drive crashed some time back and am really worried about maintaining my movies, photos, music, documents in my laptop due to shortage of memory space. This time, I'll go for a 500 gb, mostly by Seagate/Free Agent or Western Digital. It's again a useful device at your hands.

10) Android based device - Android, according to me, is the next big thing in mobile devices. The vast list of amazing applications supporting Android is enticing enough for me to have a cellphone with Android OS. As of now, Sony Ericson Xperia series and Samsung Galaxy are very good Android devices.

11) Apple Ipod Classic - I know I already have a fun Ipod, and I also plan to buy a portable usb device soon. Still, I think, Ipod classic is a great device to have with you. Huge memory available to carry music, videos, other data. Plus, you can listen to music and watch videos whenever you feel like, not something you can do with portable usb drives!

I think I'll visit this post every 6 months and update the wishlist and also the list of gadgets I already have. For me, these gadgets are nothing but toys for elder boys!
