Your All Time Favorite Mobile Device?
What mobile device have you owned (or used, or lusted after) that are you are still the most fired up about? I'm talking about the best few devices, that you would even consider repurchasing just for the nostalgia factor. I'd really like to hear what devices others have become attached to over the years.
It's not on my list, but I expect to hear a lot of iPhone and Kindle answers, as well as Psion, HP Journada, etc from some of the folks that have been hooked on mobile devices for a long time. But those aren't even on my list! So to get things started, here are my favorites of all time, which still get me misty eyed when I think of them ever so fondly...
I'm sure I've forgotten some. And there are many others that I've enjoyed, but didn't create the same emotional attachment. My iPad would have made the list, but I wanted to give it the test of time before it takes a place in my list. Looking forward to hearing what mobile devices were special to you folks! <Sorry about the extra dots - wasn't sure how to create a blank line between bullets. Anyone know a trick?> Last edited by Bob Russell; 09-26-2010 at 07:52 PM. Reason: Add some pics |

Of ALL the mobile devices I have owned and currently own - my favorite has to be my Kindle DX Graphite! Leaves the rest in the dust.

The quick answer here would be my newest device, whatever that may be! But my real answer would probably be my Acer Aspire One netbook, which for the past couple of years has been my primary computer. I don't do gaming or anything that needs a lot of bells and whistles, so it fits my needs perfectly. I can read on it (and I did for months before I got a dedicated reader), surf the web, pay my bills, edit my photos, and handle my music library. I periodically back it up to an external hard drive, and I've got an external DVD player for the rare occasions that I want to load software or something. It's never too heavy for my lap, and it will fit into my purse for travel. I'd replace it in a heartbeat if something happened to it.

At the moment, it's probably a three way tie between my three current mobile devices. I love my Palm Pre Plus phone, even though both ebook reading apps for it turned out to be disappointments. But just as a phone/mp3 player/mobile photo album I love it dearly. My Asus T91MT has been the best little device ever, both for reading and surfing. Love the convertible aspect of it (the screen swivels to make it into a touchscreen tablet), and it's great for reading. And my most recent acquisition, the Sony PRS 600 is wonderful. I'm not as reluctant to take it with me as I was the Asus, and of course it's less heavy and easier to use outside than the Asus. I probably couldn't pick one over the other two, although I've had the Asus the longest.
