What’s on your X’mas Gadget Shopping List?

It’s the month of December and for most people, the only month of the year when you feel you really deserve that much awaited gadget you’ve always longed for.

Luckily, it’s also the samr month you’d most likely get a bonus or a 13th month pay. That makes it much easier to the wallet.

So which gadget is on your shopping list this season? Is it a phone, a camera or a new mp3 player? Are you looking to get the big ticket items like a 37″ HDTV or a Macbook or will settle with a smaller token like the PSP Slim or the Nintendo DS Lite?

Last Christmas, I got myself a Canon 40D. This year, I wasn’t thinking of any and instead, thought of spending an extra week or so in Europe when I fly there on a business trip this week.

  1. perhaps, a new phone (nokia 5800 or nokia n85)

    a ps3,
    or

    a new core 2 quad pc

  2. I want S.E.X.: a Sony Ericsson Xperia! ;-D

  3. I just want a new laptop or rig

  4. I want C.A.R.: Carbine Assault Rifle. :D

  5. I’m going vintage! :)

    A Toshiba Portege 2000 — thinner than Macbook Air, released in 2002. :)

    Just for my collection.

  6. Well, none really, maybe I’ll pause for some months from now, on getting new gadgets.

    With what’s happening around the globe, that financial crisis thingy, I guess my predictions are these:

    – low demands on gadgets, abundant on supply.
    – prices of these gadgets might be slashed maybe as drastic as 50% come 1Q or 2Q of 2009.

    so maybe the few months after christmas is worth the wait.
    unless I can grab now a Red Zune. ;-)

  7. I’ve planned to upgrade my PC but this time, an AMD platform, a Phenom X3 with Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-DS2H mobo not much power but rich in features and good for my budget or the latest MSI Wind PC with prepaid broadband but more expensive and for the least expensive maybe just an Ipod Shuffle a good partner for an early morning jog.

  8. Maybe an LG Cookie, or if my parents can afford, a Nokia 5800.

    But I think I’ll have to wait until graduation.

  9. I’m planning to buy a Canon 40D BUT there’s a 50D
    coming out. Is the price difference worth it?

    Please advise.

    SIL

  10. Is the NOKIA E90 already outdated compared to the other new models for business use?

  11. A brand new laptop, and an external hard drive.

  12. the new macbook pro 15″.

    but can’t afford it as of the moment so i’ll settle for the iPod touch 32gig.

  13. Laptop and LCD Monitor

  14. mwahahah i already have it, the Sager NP9262! :)
    for others Digiframes are good gifts, portable DVD player, the all popular Magic Sing Microphone.

  15. A 120G Black Zune from Canada that I will get before Christmas.

  16. i would like to have a sony cybershot t500 camera

  17. even if there’s no way i’ll be able to afford them for now, i’ll wish anyway.

    1. Nikon D70s (i know it’s not new anymore but that would be good enough for me)
    2. Nokia E71
    3. Nokia N96 or Samsung Omnia for my fiancee

  18. It’s a new 55-200mm zoom lens for my Nikon D40 this Christmas. :D

  19. I asked my father to buy me a DSLR and I am just deciding between an Olympus E-520, Canon EOS 450 or Sony Alpha 350.

    And I’ll just get a brand new laptop on my bday instead.

  20. Nikkor 50mm VR Lens (will get it tomorrow XD)

  21. I wanted a 32GB iPod Touch 2nd Generation but I changed my mind! 120GB iPod Classic is more spacious and cheaper.. I got myself that last week, an early christmas gift! hehe.. :)

  22. Bad economy so i guess no new gadget this Christmas :( just maximize of use of what i have right now.
