Even seriously de-branding (saying just "digital camera" instead of "Nikon D1"), I only own one, a flash drive. Two if you equate an old-school LCD eBookwise with an e-ink device. My monitor is flat-screen, by my TV isn't yet, and I don't come close to owning anything else, even in most generic form.

Hmm, nice list... Let's see how much I own...


1: Garmin GPS, and not just any! One for my bike! But I prefer my TomTom for my car...
2. USB Thumbdrive, got one from my work
3. Nintendo Wii


So, that makes three... I also have an e-ink device, but I'd rather not insult it and compare it to a Kindle, so that doesn't count...

I owned 2 on the list, a thumbdrive and the Kindle. I'm not sure which of us is the un-coolist.

Edit: missed Jadon with his 1. Looks like he's in the un-cool club as well.

They should have saved space for the Apple tablet! I doubt their prediction of Kindle owning the ebook market in 3 years will come true. The tablets will be out in 3 years and dedicated ebook devices will be very cheap niche products. Most people will have a tablet for reading in 5 years imo.

FWIW, I'm obviously seriously "uncool", only having owned 4 of the gadgets (iPod, Garmin GPS, USB stick, and Kindle).
Well, you are certainly cooler than me, I have only owned 1 of the gadgets, a USB stick!

Actually, if I "debrand" the list, I own 3 items: Sony reader, Sony digital camera and USB stick. Still not a whole lot.

Same with me. Minus the camera, plus an MP3 player (actually, I have the Creative Jukebox that appears on the iPod picture, well, the first model).
