I have an iPod Touch and a Blackberry. The latter was a Christmas gift and it's fantastic for working on the go- which I am often doing, especially with four kids. The former was a gift to myself, partly because I like to run and as a writer (sedentary profession) I needed that extra motivation to stay in shape. <br /><br />That being said, I consider all these gadgets and flat screen TVs and what-not to be extras, not necessities. And I didn't rush out the buy them the second they were released. We try to make purchases that we will get the most out of. Our kids all have Nintendo DSis but they can use them for multiple things- like taking photos and we incorporate them into their homeschool. <br /><br />Anyway, great post. Something we should all think about today. Do we own our gadgets or do they own us?Lisa Masonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09116467764335396928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4223430009691470937.post-14166026034657480622011-04-11T18:29:40.839-07:002011-04-11T18:29:40.839-07:00We have lots of gadgets.

My hubby bought an iPad last year and I have to admit that I was an unattractive shade of green. He's a gold-star-earning sharer, though, so I've played with it a bit. Eh. <br /><br />It needs a flash player (doesn't have one, can't get one) and the ability to write more than a note on it. If they equip one with Word, I'll be first in line and will knock over little kids and old ladies to get my hands on one.<br /><br />A post you might like: http://www.word-nerd-speaks.com/2011/03/dirty-little-secret.htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4223430009691470937.post-57658120799944564402011-04-11T18:12:10.355-07:002011-04-11T18:12:10.355-07:00I'm lucky.

My son and his wife bought me an iPhone a couple of years ago, and I was really happy about that. <br /><br />Now I want an iPad for all those innumerable times when my Internet didn't work (difficult to type on an iPhone). <br /><br />An EMF detector? Oh, yeah! I'd love to try one of those. And a digital recorder, and everything else that comes in a ghost hunting kit.<br /><br />Interested in reading my latest A-Z Challenge blog?

And if it weren't for the iPhone I wouldn't be able to harass everyone from work all day on FB.<br /><br />I like gadgets. I want an iPad just because it looks fun. I have a Nook color. I can download my homework reading to it and don't have to carry around a bunch of textbooks like I'm in High School. It's awesome...Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13476239061333846750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4223430009691470937.post-1495626733614368062011-04-11T15:40:56.946-07:002011-04-11T15:40:56.946-07:00I love my I-phone, pictures, texting, internet acc...I love my I-phone, pictures, texting, internet access. It is worth every penny to me. But I am still buying my books, though I would love to have a kindle too, I just can't justify that expense at this point.Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02600414130153236774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4223430009691470937.post-15333100315425982011-04-11T15:18:51.303-07:002011-04-11T15:18:51.303-07:00I'm with you on some of this.
