Since of the best gadget of 05 thread i think we should have a worst gadget category aswell.

So here's what i think it is,it just has to be the Rokr or maybe you think its something else?

My Vote goes to: ROKR

isn't W800, W900, K750 and others "such a device"?

Perhaps its the implementation that was all wrong having fixed memory that was not expandable

I'm still trying to think of the worst (and best) gadgets of 2005 but with 5 weeks to go I'll hang on a tad longer

hmmm. while people are aclaiming the PSP as the best gadget (I'm not sure I agree) the Nintendo DS in my mind seems to be towards the lower end of the worst gadgets.

After the fantastic gameboys, including the SP, I think Nintendo lost the plot. My kids, being good judges of what they want to play their games on, had all the gamboys up to the SP but baulked at the chance of the DS preferring instead, the PSP. As a non game player, that tells me alot!

I have the DS althought its not reall WOW like the psp it is still good and has some fun aspects to it. I love mario 64 DS. But i would rather play gta on the psp. Also while were on the subject on nintendo i think they are in the coffin and every other console they release is another nail in it. I think the Revolution will be the final nail. Look at the Remote, i mean pad, i mean remote....Am confussed

@axxxr, yeah, they are way down there in the bad list too...

but, if it was these ones, then they'd be in my favourite gadget list






as a side note, MI2 was what made me buy my first Oakleys, the ones the movie was based on, the Romeo X-Metal and they are still something I wear all the time. Great glasses!

must agree that the ROKR was a big dissapointment. but on the flip side this has been great for SE who must have almost died when they saw it, because i am sure that to start off with they were quite worried about it!!!
