Had it been a list of gadgets I wish to purchase, I would have said the Eink phone or dual screen 5 inch (LCD and Eink on each side). Such a device will replace my current smartphone and ereader (possibly even the tablet). Offcourse its not in the market yet, so, maybe next year around this time.

I don't plan to buy any gadgets for myself.

Well Santa Claus came early this year, I already got my Kobo Glo so I don't think I'll be treating myself with anything else in the coming weeks.

I've just bought a Kobo Mini, I bough and iPhone 4S and an ASUS ultrabook last year, my desktop two years ago and an iPad on June, so I think none goes this year (Camera either, Panasonic TZ-10 two years ago...)

Hope you enjoy yours. I love mine! They just added (within the last few days) a search feature that searches across content "channels". If you haven't already, bookmark Roku Private Channels Directory. Not that there aren't enough "official" Roku channels to keep you busy, but it's always good to have more options!

Does an electric toothbrush (Braun Oral B) count as a gadget? That's the only one I can think of that I'll be getting anytime soon.
But you never know what might jump in front of me yelling "buy me, buy me!"... |

My daughters, 6 & 9, enjoy both their Nook Color + n2a and their DSi XL. The NC is much more versatile, but they wouldn't want to give up the DSi XL. I got it for them a couple years ago.
We have 2 Rokus. We love them. One for the girls room, one for the boys room. We borrow them when we want to. Last edited by booklover6; 10-30-2012 at 04:51 PM. |

We had a DS Lite that we've had for ages, but it broke, so it isn't like it would be a brand new thing to her. But she didn't use the DS Lite all that much, so I wonder how much she'd use the other.

I think it's the kobo arc for me because I want a tab smaller than my iPad and would like a new ereader. I am hoping to kill two birds with one stone😄
