What gadget would/will you buy right now if you had/have $500?

[MagicianBdotCom]

Anything gadgety... basically must be electronic and nifty Like a cell phone, PDA, new watch, mp3 player, etc.... My first post, lets see how it goes Hope no one has done this before.

Ditto. Even though I already have an S300, I could at least give the old one to my fiance.

I would buy 2/3 of a month's rent that's due on the 1st.

Just picked up a whole new system, so pretty much all computer stuff is out of the question. An IPod, perhaps? Also, if the new jet sim Lo-Mac comes out in the next month or two, as it appears likely due to the increased media coverage and hints from the production staff of a demo coming out "soon", then I'd like to pick up Track-Ir to simulate head movement in the cockpit.

If I could find a PDA like the iPaq 2210/2215 with built in WiFi - I'd get that.

Otherwise there's really nothing out there that I don't already have.

 

[CPA]

a new video card, preferably a Nvidia 5900

Me too! So many great deals on that A70, but I really wanted something smaller. Ended up getting a Dimage Xt. I don't think I need the extra megapixels that the s400 gives you. Very nice camera though.

External Sony DVD+/- RW drive....
Take the change and buy media...

 

[Fiveohhh]

most likely a PDA of some sort

 

[Thegonagle]

Nothing right now.

 

[BigSmooth]

I'd buy a new TV.

If we have to go "gadgety", I'd probably go for a nicer digicam. Or maybe a Pronto remote, those things are cool but I could never justify the price normally.

Also, that Lite-On DVD player with DivX capabilities looks pretty interesting.

 

[Bryophyte]

Rototiller. Sorry it's not a small electronic gadget. I don't want any small electronic gadgets now that I've gotten a nice digital camera as a gift.

 

[BatmanNate]

A new PDA (maybe the new Sony if I could get a deal), a digicam, and a DVD burner would be nice.

Link? That sounds interesting. Support for 5.05? Upgradable firmware? Audio options?

I can sell you a brand new Canon S400 for $100 less than retail shipped FedEx Ground.

 

[paruhd0x]

A second IBM 7200RPM 100ATA 100GB hardrive, to raid with my first.

Then probably I'd save up for two LCD low millisecond monitors.

 

[pyonir]

Canon G3

 

[bockchow]

a decent lcd monitor. i like my 19" crt but i'd also like some more desk space

 

[erub]

A new car stereo mp3 deck with sattelite radio built in

Do they even make these or are you required to be a separate tuner, as well as an antenna?

 

[CaseTragedy]

Sony Ericsson T616

because my free cell phones just don't cut it anymore.

 

[loosliptcomptrola]

I'd buy an Intake and Underdrive Pulley for my 2k3 max

 

[hdeck]

ipod/digicam
