R U technologically in the Dark Ages?

I realized the other day that when it comes to technology...I'm wa-ay behind the times!

I do NOT own;
- a scanner
- an iPod (or any other mp3 player)
- a digital camera
- a palm pilot (PDA?)
- a bluetooth (or any text messager)

I guess that makes me a gizmo-caveman. sad

What about YOU?

I do own
- a scanner (But barely use/used it)
- an iPod (or any other mp3 player) (I got a rio for Christmas...but don't use it)
- a digital camera (Use it all the time and LOVE it!!!)
- a palm pilot (PDA?) (Have no use for one and find them irritating as hell)
- a bluetooth (or any text messager) (I text a little on my cell phone but don't dig it.)
I'm firmly planted in denial

- a scanner
I have one, but it seldom gets used since I have a digital camera.
- an iPod (or any other mp3 player)
Nope. No reason to yet, Plus they're too expensive.
- a digital camera
Yep.
- a palm pilot (PDA?)
I don't have any need for one, but my wife has one.
- a bluetooth (or any text messager)
No. Again, no need.

I do have three computers with the least powerful having a 1.8GHz processor. The other has a 1.9 and the server has a 2.4.

I do NOT own;
- a scanner got it
- an iPod (or any other mp3 player) got it and a Creative nuvo
- a digital camera had one but see my canoe thread mad
- a palm pilot (PDA?) got it
- a bluetooth (or any text messager) nope. but getting text msging on my phone

I guess that makes me a gizmo-caveman. sad

What about YOU?


I'm waiting on the replacement for the PC6700 which is a sprint smartphone. It's really nice, but I'm assuming the second generation device will be nicer and I assume one is looming. I love gadgets and features, but I'm getting tired of having to have mutliple gadgets. They should incorporate all those features into one device--one nice looking device.
The canoe trip tought me something. Without the little devices, my life is filled with multiple little inconviences each day; however, except for my cellphone, I don't necessarily need those things.

I'm not knocking your style. I love the pc6700. It has the nicest keyboard of all those devices, far better than the Treo. I'm just assuming that the next generation device will improve on it.
I actually agree with most of your gadget decisions. It's almost scary how much we agree, I mean with the way you dress and all. rolleyes

LMFAO flipped off


I like the Sony Ericsson P990, but yeah, the 6700's keyboard is a killer. I like just about everything about the phone now that I think about it.
