What gadget to buy?
Discussion
Much to my wife's irritation, I'm a bit of a gadget freek. I've got loads of the things, half of them I can't operate fully - but that's another story.
Anyway, I want another gadget but I don't know what to buy. Any suggestions? The only thing I'm not bothered about buying are MP3's / IPOD's, etc. Other than that, all suggestions considered.

Digital SLR camera? 
a friend has one and its lots of fun.
GPS device so you can join in with the global confluence project (www.confluence.org/) or do some geocaching (www.geocaching.com/).
One of those alarm clocks that monitor your brainwaves and wake you up at the latest possible most-awake point you have in your sleep cycle.

I have just bought a microwave that connects to the internet.
It comes with a scan pen, run it over the barcode on the tin of beans and it knows exactly how long to cook it for.
It also works for stuff that has to stand for 2 mins in the middle of cooking.
Connect the microwave to the internet to d/l more barcodes.
You can also teach it for products it hasnt got stored in the memory.

I too am a Gadget man, and love technology. Half of which I rarely use. I don't have an MP3 player as I simply wouldn't use it. I have bought things like IPAQs before, and used them for about a week before resorting to my old diary.
However, www.firebox.com is the place to satsify your urges.
One item that costs only a few quid but is hilarious is the Airzooka.
For spending more cash I'd recommend splashing on something like a Pinball machine or an arcade game or a jukebox. I have several and they are easily the coolest things you can have in the house (or Games room) IMHO.
Email me if you want some advice on these.

Pray explain this,
Its a pro audio recorder for TV and film audio recording on location. I used to use a UHER or Nagra or Marantz or similar as I recall.
It's utterly useless to anyone who is not a Film Sound Recordist.
Strange choice.
In the same vein may I recommend a Digi-Beta Camcorder. A snip starting at 20k...but full broadcast...
Edited to add - I didn't see the above post...
