What Are Your Favorite Gadgets?

Postby Shannon on Thu Apr 24, 2008 12:17 am

OK, guys, we seem to be forming a pretty good community here so far. So, I want to hear from you!

I am looking for my inspiration for my next blog post here at HDTVAntennaLabs. So, tell me, what are your favorite television gadgets? What are the ones that you simply cant live without? On the other hand, what are the gadgets you have tried and were disappointed with them once you got them home? Share with me and with the rest of the forum!

By the way, if you haven't checked out the blog already, you can find it here: http://www.hdtvantennalabs.com/articles/ You might find the answers to some of your questions there. Of course, we are always happy to answer questions here on the forum as well!

Well, for my 2 cents, when I'm watching a movie on the rare occasion I have time, I love putting in the DVD, and turning on the surround sound, turning out the lights, and giving the appearance I'm at the movies. (mines a wide screen so it helps)

I love going to see a movie, but I refuse to pay the kind of money it costs these days. You have to realize that I remember when it was 25 cents for me :shock:

I guess I don't really have any gadgets, since I am not really big into tv. Thanks for the link to the blog, though, I didn't even know it was there. It might help answer some of my questions.

Depending on what I'm looking at, it might be a glass of wine or sometimes [Discovery channel] my pc on wich I grab all my favorite shows.

I'm with viktor! Sometimes, my favorite gadgets don't have anything to do with technology. For me, my sofa and a nice throw pillow to rest my head upon are my favorite gadgets! Other than that, I guess my satellite dish is the best thing I have going, since it helps me get so many great HD channels.

Personally, I don't have any favorite gadgets either. I love almost all my gadgets equally.

My wife always tells me how it's soo easy to shop for gifts to get me. Anytime she askes me what I want, I pretty much just tell her make sure it has lots of buttons or does something cool, and to make sure I don't have one already!

My favorite gadget has to be my home theater reciever. For me, there's just nothing better than sitting in the confort of my own home after a long day of work and watching a movie in glorious 7.1 channel surround sound!

My favorite gadget has to be my XBox 360. I grew up in the 'Video Game Generation', and right now theXbox 360 has the most games I like to play out of all the video game systems today.

Just got a TV tuner. It's so easy to work with it, and till now I've grabbed on my harddisk about 50GB. Works excellent !! I strongly recomand it, besides of a VCR ;) ;)

Actually, my favorite gadget it's not a gadget at all. It's my old Lay-Z-boy chair. Oh, I'm just lovin' sitting and watching tv from it. And if I accidently have a coke around the evening might sound like a lazy one. Should I call my chair a gadget? I was thinking that tvs should come with a sofa or something.
Cheers !
