Gadgets – my favourite gadget

What’s your favourite gadget?
And why?

I have just acquired a HTC TyTN II PDA/smartphone, and I love the idea of having all in one neat package a phone directory and phone, camera, calendar (synchronised with my laptop) and the ability to take notes electronically. For learning such devices have even more possibilities. Indeed, it was a seminar on the learning possibilities that convinced me I NEEDED one of these gadgets.

From electric toothbrushes to broadband dongles, think about the gadgets that surround you. List them? Why are we so dependent on gadgets?
