Alright, you know you want to share what cool new shiny gadget(s) you received for the holidays!!

Perhaps received a new iPhone or Droid phone?

Maybe you got a new new Mac or PC? (I'm holding out for the iSlate) :)

Anyone get a new eBook reader like a Kindle or Nook?

How about a Netbook..which one did you get?

We have several gamers in here...did anyone get a new gaming console or a new game you've been wanting?

SHARE!! We all want to know. Upload a photo if you like (try to keep the size to a minimum if you can)

What did you get??

I'll get this started, but unfortunately I was not blessed with a wife that's so great at gift giving, so I usually take it upon myself to buy a gift or 2. :)

I treated myself to the new BlackBerry Bold 9700!! Loving it so far (actually got it a few weeks ago)

OK..I know this doesn't make the "Gadget" list...and actually I bought it for the boy I believe I have adopted it for myself.

That's it for me...maybe you'll post and I can live vicariously through some of you this Holiday season. :)
 
I got a cool digital picture frame that can automatically pull pictures off my Facebook account or other websites via wireless. It is pretty awesome!

Check it out:

Cool gift Matt, they have really come down in price. They were running close to $400 - $500 a few years back.

Careful Jeff, you'll shoot your eye out!



No, but my son did get a clean shot of my nose in earlier. Talk about making your eye water. :rofl:
 
I received the Kindle reader, and when I first opened it I was like Okay, not impressed. After 2 days I think its the greatest invention ever. I have my morning paper, my magazines, and blogs sent automatically, plus books. It surfs the web, and I can clip articles and make notes...Its a serious tool for gathering data and you can read faster because there's no page turning. Oh and the papers have no advertising which is great! I put it up there with the iPod. You got to have it!
 
Once you become the Dad the gifts get a little less exciting.......although I'm a big fan of the sox my 8 year old daughter buys me!:)

My kids were the recpients of some cool tech gifts though, netbooks at 8 and 10? yup, they're tech... and my son has been on his new xbox 360 nonstop.
