Must-Have Gadgets for the Digital Diva

Must-Have Gadgets for the Digital Diva
By · Updated October 29, 2020
01
Blackberry PlayBook

We’re excited about this one: Blackberry’s first foray into the tablet market finds the PDA maker swinging at the competition. The Flash enabled device comes equipped with support for 1080p HD video, two cameras, HDMI output and Enterprise support, should you ever want to use it for work. Coming soon!

02
Galaxy S Giorgio Armani Special Edition

An extremely limited offering, the stylish 16GB Giorgio Armani branded Galaxy S features a 5 megapixel camera and Wi-Fi capability tucked into the phone’s premium black appliqué finish. Price: $1,300.

03
LaCie MosKeyTo

This is the smallest USB key on the market – around 20 mm – and holds up to 16GB (!), while looking super cool. Plug it into your computer and forget it’s there until you need it again. Technology is amazing, isn’t it? Price: $27.

04
Sony Nex-5

All the fun of a DSLR camera but in the size of a compact, Sony’s NEX-5 lets you add a series of lenses – including an 18-200mm zoom lens – to make a shooting situation an easy one. All that, and it looks hot! Starting price: $622.

05
Sony XEL-1

Styled as a work of modern art, Sony’s flagship OLED TV, the XEL-1 displays beautiful color and picture from its ultra-thin 3-mm thick monitor, which sits atop an “intelligent base” that houses two HDMI ports and a Memory Stick slot. Price: $2,200.

06
Canon PIXMA MG8120

Completely touch-sensitive, this innovative printer lets you capture still photographs from your HD movies to make beautiful full-color prints, and with Wi-Fi connectivity, allows for wireless printing through most mobile devices. That’s pretty cool. Price: $200.

07
HDC-SDT750K

Get your hands on the first 3-D shooting camcorder. Panasonic’s fully HD handheld comes equipped with a detachable 3-D Leica Dicomar lens that will add some serious depth to your home movies. Now all you need is a 3-D TV. Price: $1,400.

08
The Car DVR

By using an onboard SD car, the Car DVR records your driving from the front or rear of your car, so should you end up in an accident, you’ll know just who to blame. Brilliant! All for $40.

09
Toshiba Protégé R705-P35

Toshiba’s 13-inch slim notebook computer packs a good amount of punch into a small package, with a 500GB hard drive, 2.2GHz Intel Core 13. And, with built-in support for 4G wireless, you’ll be able to get online anytime. Price: $999.

10
Samsung Galaxy Tab

Weighing in at under 14 ounces, Samsung’s touch-screen, Android-powered tablet features a front and rear camera, lets you surf the web, engage with apps and supports Flash. The size here is the key to its popularity: at 7 inches, it plays against all those that love the iPad but find it cumbersome. Starting at $349.

11
Boxee

Boxee plays videos stored or streamed through your computer onto your TV screen. Watch live sports games, web shows, concerts and more for around $200. Plus, the module looks futuristic on your shelf.

12
Louis Vuitton iPad Case

We know, not technically a gadget — but it is a way to upgrade your gadget. It makes sense that one of the world’s most luxurious brands would create a case for Apple’s iPad. Available in LV’s signature monogram and monochrome Damier Graphite, the sleeve-styled cases retail for $366.

13
Cold Brew Coffee Maker

The “green” trend of cold brew coffee, which features 69% less acid than hot-brewed coffee, gets environmentally friendly with the Cold Brew Coffee Maker. It uses no heat or electricity to produce a hot or cold cup o’ joe. Price: $50.

14
Control4

Control everything in your home through this new in-wall touch screen Control4. When you walk in a room, the lights switch on, the room temperature will adjust, a song will cue from your computer – all for around $1,200. This is for those die-hard digi divas out there.

15
Klipsch Image S4

The premium grade ear buds for your iPod and iPhone experience — exceptional functionality, crystal-clear sound and razor sharp design. Also, the headphones are so comfortable, you’ll never want to take them off. Price: $100.
