Interesting. I am in the lower half of the younger boomers and I have everything listed except a tablet which I can't justify with a laptop and sony 950. That being said, it is next on the list but the advancements are coming so fast I am going to wait a bit. Here's my $.02 analysis-younger boomers are familiar with technology, old enough to have the basics (home, food, etc.) covered and still have disposable income but aren't yet worried about limited retirement income so we buy gadgets to lug around while we finally take some vacations since we are done paying for our kids' college

I think that with the older generations it is a lack of comfort with the new electronics and the thought of dropping a couple hundred bucks when they have a radio and can go to the library. My mom has two relatively new desktops but won't touch a laptop or ereader. Probably a good thing-we are still teaching her to use the GPS we bought her in 2009
