Just in case you’re in the mood to send me a gift. (I know you are!)


The OQO:

What is it: Touch screen, slide-out QWERTY keyboard, Windows XP, USB, Firewire, Ethernet, WiFi, Bluetooth, and a 20 GB hard drive all crammed into a 4.9” x 3.4” x .9” box.
Why I want it: This thing is the (current) ultimate answer to ultraportable travel computing! No more lugging around laptops.

The Motorolla RAZR:

What is it: a “RAZR” thin cellphone
Why I want it: To replace my dying Nokia

Canon SD20 (aka IXUS I5) ultracompact digital camera:

Why I want it: Although I currently have a pretty decent digicam, I am a sucker for tiny 5 MP cameras with superb picture quality.

Sony Vaio FS500 Laptop:

Why I want it: While the OQO would be great on the move, I’d still require a “proper” portable PC for graphics editing, spreadsheets and and other performance-demanding apps.

Garmin eTrex Legend 8 MB GPS

Great for travel/backpacking…lets go geocaching!
