Top 10 UK Gadgets ‘05

by Guy Brighton

PspStuff Magazine recently launched a survey on the top gadgets for the UK.  From their findings they have concluded a Top 10 list that is lead by the soon to be launched (and we really can’t wait!) Sony PSP (no surprises there then).  The PSP is marked as THE gadget for 2005 and is set to have a greater impact on a ‘market’ than any other gadget before. 

Rather than asking what does the PSP actually do - it’s more the case - what doesn’t the PSP do?  (Keep you eyes peeled for the PSFK report on this soon)

Falling second in the Top 10 want list is the iPod 60GB. 

Adam Vaughan, editor of Stuff Magazine says

"What this year’s Essentials shows is that gadgets are now cheaper, sexier and more indispensable than ever. We’ve got to the point where we can’t live our lives without certain technology."

It seems to be portable gadgets dominate the Top 10 list - all adding to our get up and go lifestyle.  To own all of the gadgets on the list will set you back £7,455 (GBP).  It is said that that’s £1000 cheaper than last years list due to falling manufacturing costs.
