Warren / Canada
speaker I don't think I have enough gadgets 2. I think ... I don't think anyone should have too many, but I'm definitely wanting to have a few more devices to help me. Right now, I only have a regular cellphone, but I really wanted to get an iPhone. Actually, my iPod, I put through the washing machine by accident, and it managed to keep working for a year, but now the insides have rusted 3 out and it doesn't work, so I need to get one of those, too.
 
Tim / United States 
speaker I don't have too many gadgets. I have essential things, like I have a cellphone, I have a computer, a camera, and that's basically it. I don't really get a lot of gadgets and random 4 items, because if I don't use something very often, I don't see the point of having it, so I get rid of it, or I'll just not buy it in the first place.
 
Gareth / England
speaker Yeah, I have quite a few gadgets, quite a few old mp3 players that I no longer use, and every time Apple releases a new product, I have to have it, so it's a little bit like an obsession 5 for me.
 
Katia / Mexico
speaker No, I do not have many gadgets. I avoid anything that is technical or that is complicated. The simpler, the better. I find things, like gadgets, a little bit difficult to use, and many times I don't think they are necessary, so I rather not use or have any gadgets.
 
Lindsay / United States
speaker No, I don't; my husband does. He's always buying a new gadget 1, a new computer, a new projector 6, a new DVD player. But for me, no, I don't like gadgets. I just got an iPhone, so that's probably my only real gadget.
 
Sunny / Korea 
speaker I don't think I have too many gadgets. I only have the regular ones people have, like computers, mp3 players, but I really like to try new stuffs, even ... if I had some chance.
