As I replied in the other thread on this topic, I’d have to say my TiVo!

But if you mean sports-type gadget, I’d have to go with my iPod. I still have a 4th Gen iPod, but it does what I need for when I workout. Love the musics!

As much as I don’t like to admit it, it’s my 3g iphone. I’m an IT guy by trade and have always kinda looked down my nose at Apple zealots, but damn I love this thing more than anything!

It really sucks when it comes to things like Copy/Paste, MMS, and no Nike+, but it easily the best smart ‘thing’ I’ve laid my hands on.

It’s a really sad state of affairs when I can’t find it. I can’t say for sure, but I think it is the same feeling mothers get when they lose their kid at the mall.

I am right there with you, syselim. I’ve experienced that little heart attack. I’m also with you on the slight relucance to admit the iphone-love, but it is just a fabulous multi-tasking device!
.
But for a fitness gadget, it’s got to be my Garmin Forerunner 305. I’m a big data junkie, so this is a big motivator.

I’ll list a third “low-tech” gadget (what? you didn’t say just one, did you? oh well) with my blender bottle. It has a little whisk ball inside, and I tell you, it’s not just a gimmick. I use it for excellent smoothies and I also keep a low-yolk egg mix (lots of whites and a couple of yolks) in the fridge ready for whipping in the bottle, pouring and cooking.

I just ordered a Polar F6 the other day, so we’ll see how that stacks up, but it will take some magic to dethrone my iPhone. Web, phone, music, camera and plenty of kick ass apps to be found in the App Store and Cydia all in a way to convenient package. Just wish they’d open things up a bit more, I like to tinker :)
