I want a cell phone jammer! :-D

But I can't have one because the government says they are illegal! :cry

 

What is unfriendly Laura? The jammer or the government? Me being unfriendly is unthinkable. rolleyes

 

I've got two of the USB cup warmers as presents Kes they are a complete waste of time just not enough juice through the USB

There's too many to list I already have a couple of lasers but I wouldn't mind a burning laser,you can't do much with them to warrant the price but they are so cool;

I was weary of the bomb growing up but more fascinated in the power and mystery of them really

Radiation has always fascinated me I'd juts go around checking how much radiation was coming from everything:-D and build up a collection of radioisotopes

EDIT that kindle looks really cool they reviewed a bunch of them of the gadget show and I think the apple version came out on top but only for ergonomincs and style I remember them saying the book sample was the only problem.

 

Here's the video roundup including your kindle the Sony I meant not the apple lol

i also want the super-sweet looking "pandora"

Sadly not Laura, just on my wish list. If anyone spent that much on a Christmas gift for me I would probably throw a loop tbh. Prefer to work hard and earn my toys than have materialism at Christmas

 

Current price on Amazon.

 

LauraR do you want Kindle or Kindle2?

 

Interesting link Laura. I hear you can get pretty much whatever you want in prison. :confused

 

Laura, my friend has a Kindle and he loves it. He plays mp3s and uploads Word docs to his. I saw one while on an airport tram in San Francisco last year and the lady said she liked how she could carry 20 books with her.

I trust you get your b-day wish!

 

Well, it looks like you got yer B/Day wish. Congrats, LauraR!:cool

...I live in high hopes! rolleyes LOL

 

does Asimo count as a gadget?

 

Good one,I think he'd be fun for a while but he's not smart enough to be of any practical use yet in my humble opinion.

The next generation are gonna be amazing

 

lol the future will be amazing

......well ive been standing here for 5 minutes....nothing

 

Is a TIG welder considered a gadget?

 

I would say a TIG would count. Used for welding aluminum right? :cool

 

I always thought a gadget was something pocket size. How big are your pockets BM? :-D

 

Ok Lev, how about calling it a big gizmo? :-D

 

Fred - you're a big gizmo

 

I am not a TIG device Lev!

 

TIG welders are great until word gets around that you have one then everyone wants some bodywork welding:-D

 

Yo Rikky, need my truck bed re welded. See yah Wednesday?:-D

 

I'll be honest... when I read the thread topic, I immediately ventured to make my post. I will venture back and read the thread after I post, but the gadget I really REALLY want is the transparent ear phone you see FBI agents wear. I have no idea what they're called, but I would really like to have one for my handheld.

Oh, and if this is a Santa thread...

Thanks, Santa!:clap

 

Hi:

Yes, these are real thingies. The Police force here all have them. Its like a transparent hose leading from the ear, around the front, over the top and behind the ear, then looks like a telephone coil going down the next at the back where it clamps onto the uniform shirt. I think at that point there is the splicer thing which then has another hose that goes to a microphone on the lapel of the jacket. Its sort of difficult to explain, but very kewl to see. Mind you, they're transparent so I guess one really has to be looking for it. But when I see an officer talking into the lapel of his jacket, I look toward his ear, and there it is, the gizmo I want Santa to find.

Thanks for the link. I'll check it out now.

 

Nope, just one. I don't think I can plug two phones into the single jack on the handset portable radio.

I looked at your link and didn't see anything close. I did a google search and came up with something pretty close though:

I'll have to wait until my fancy shmancy handheld arrives from Hong Kong to see what outlets it has. Some of the best radio equipment is made in Hong Kong so I am really looking forward to getting it.
