There's a whiteboard in a common area here at work that someone has divided into two halves: "Best Electronics Gifts of 2008" and "Worst Electrnics Gifts of 2008" It's been a lot of fun as people walk by and add their comments. So I thought I would do the same thing here. Please note that the items do not have to come from 2008. This is just a list of things people want (or don't want). And they are not all real This thread is exclusively for the BEST. Here's the link to the WORST ==> http://priuschat.com/forums/showthread.php?p=525990 My opening contributions (from what I can remember from the board): - iPhone - iTouch - Leopard - Segway - Zip-Lock bag of nanobots - Teleporter
Using cell phone as home phone I'll nominate something that looks cool but with a disclaimer that I don't own one so I can't give a first-hand account of whether or not it lives up to its advertised claims: Copied from another of my posts: For what it's worth, my uncle was asking me about using his cell phone as his home phone as HyCamGuy mentioned (ie. switching his home phone number to his cell, then being able to use the regular home phones to dial out from the cellphone and having the home phones ring on an incoming call). There is a docking station that will do this, called the Dock-N-Talk from PhoneLabs. You ditch your landline service, buy one of these gadgets, plug one end into a phone jack in your house and the other end into your cellphone and voila - your cellphone now controls your home phone! The problem is it is not compatible with fax machines or computer modems (due to cell network signalling), so if you are using a dial-up internet connection it wouldn't work for you. Here's the manufacturer's website: http://www.phonelabs.com/
I can't vouch either but had some noise on the telephone a few days ago. The Verizon guy came and we were chatting. He said that FIOS is the best thing since sliced bread...totally reliable.

Gift Hey! Thanks for the suggestion I would surely go for an ipoid gift to someone special to me. Gift
picked up an tv a few weeks ago. love it. I ripped some of my daughters videos and stream it from my computer and we just rented transformers in HD (yeah, yeah, it's a crap movie, but it's fun). It downloaded for a minute, then was ready to watch. Never paused once on verizon Fios.
