Competition Time – Win one of 5 Digital Picture Frames

by Al in Digital Picture Frame, Electronic Gadgets, Gadget Competitions, Photography

Digital picture frames were one of the hit gifts last Christmas and I’m delighted to say we have 5 to give away to Coolest Gadget readers. We’ve just reviewed the CiBox C107 over on our sister site Coolest Reviews and cool gadget shop Red Save have generously offered to give a CiBox 7 Inch frame to five fortunate CG readers.

To be in with a chance of winning, simply leave a comment sharing what you think will be this Christmas’s must have gadget. We’ll close the contest on November 10th and draw the 5 winners from the Random.org proverbial hat.

Thanks for reading and good luck. Now what do you think will be the coolest gadget this Christmas?

A Roomba model that empties its contents into the trash when needded.

Next Christmas: a Roomba that takes out the trash.

The coolest gadget this year is going to be the microPC. In particular we like the Dell Mini9 and the new Mini12. But HP has a very cool line coming out and the Asus eePC is very popular. These go for about $400 or so and are fully functional computers without the power for photoshop but plenty for email, blogging, surfing and so on. They also often boast a broad array of connectivity options.

Digital picture frames, the Wii, the iPod/iPhone and all that are all coveted but will be out-cooled by these microPC offerings. Go get one, you will admit, so cool.

If you ask me, it will be the Wii Fit – If we ever get any stock in the country! Stop showing TV ads and starting making more of the damned things!

I think it will be the newest Rock Band game.

cell phones- lots of new cell phones, and lower data plans will mean more cell phones sold this year.

The Wii of course, just like last year.

jack francisco Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 8:13 am

the must have item, in my opinion. will be the “netbook computer”.

Richard Truitt Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 8:15 am

The coolest gadget for this xmas will be Rovio the guard robot.

Joe Sinkwitz Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 8:23 am

No doubt, the iPod iTouch will be the greatest gift to give and get this Christmas.
Sure hope I get one! c’mon Santa… be The Man

Craig Says:

It’s a tough one, but iPods are going to do well, as always, especially the new nano. Also, Apple are pushing the iPod touch through TV Advertising, so that could also be the number one gadget.

The price reductions on the xbox 360 will have a great effect… £129 is a bargain price!

Does Elmo Live count as a gadget? These will sell out everywhere.

Okay, okay, if I can only choose one, it would have to be the Asus EEE Pc – budget laptops will be a massive hit this year, and the small asus range will be a big seller for kids and adults alike.

Always beat on Oprah. The Kindle.

Beatles on Rock Band, for sure.

Alphonso Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 10:01 am

I say it would be a new HDTV if it’s family…since they are really affordable now and would benifit everyone in the house. Next would be game console, maybe a PS3 which will be able to play Blu-ray on the HDTV..

Tom Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 10:05 am

I have to agree on Rock Band.

Dana Merritt Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 10:33 am

I think it will be the D-Rex toy dinosaur. Not practical as a gadget ideally should be, but charming.

Jason Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 10:40 am

I still think the Wii will be hard to get this Christmas. It’s been two years and you still hardly ever see them.

George Game Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 11:07 am

A new MacBook Pro would be the ideal Christmas Gift.

Ben Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 11:17 am

I think it’ll be the new guitar hero game.

Jeff Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 11:54 am

1. The new Roombe that can handle carpet AND hardwood floors.
2. For less money, the iPod Touch
3. For a lot less money, the Leatherman Skeletool.
I am hoping for all three….

Jason Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 11:57 am

I agree, the Wii is hard to beat. But digital frames will be the gadget people will buy for 1) people who have everything, or 2) last minute gifts, or 3) people who won’t tell you what they want.

Jason Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 11:59 am

oh, and inexpensive GPS units…same arguments as the digital frames.

anthony winner Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 12:52 pm

A conversion kit to convert a Gas car to a hybrid

Tim Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 1:02 pm

possibly these fairly inexpensive little netbooks …

Vadim Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 2:44 pm

Digital picture frames are fun, but I wonder what we’ll have in 10 years. These things will look so out of place as we see flexible and super thin OLED and other screens coming out… still nice to have.

Skippy Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 3:35 pm

Very nice. Have always wanted one but didn’t want to pay for it. :-)

Fernando Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 4:06 pm

The Iphone 3G is pretty much this year’s gadget, I keep hearing about it and it’s applications.

Sam Leung Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 4:18 pm

Must have for everyone – Digital Picture frames. This year has seen a massive growth in digital camera sales bringing forward a demand for digital frames of all varieties, from cheap basic low res models up to the bluetooth enabled high res, remote controlled, touch sceen doobelackie’s.

Music Lovers – iPod Docking micro-Sound systems

Japans Must have will be the new Nintendo DSi.

Teenages world over will wish for an iPod Nano 4g if they haven’t already scammed one off their parents.

Games wise – yes the Wii-Fit for Nintendo and Little Big Planet for PS3.

Josh Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 6:01 pm

i think any of the various netbooks will probably be the item this year.

LaRCHS Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 6:05 pm

Definitely this Xmas gadget will be a USB heating system… All day hot in front of our PC.

Robson Ivan Says:

October 30th, 2008 at 7:28 pm

I think the coolest gadget this Christmas will be a digital picture frame with WiFi, Bluetooth connectivity and one that can play MP3, Video and PowerPoint presentation. If Sony includes these features in its digital picture frames, it should be a hit. A higher memory capacity (8 GB) if in-built could be an excellent feature.

Definitely the T-Mobile Iphone copy will be the hottest gadget/gift this Christmas.

Jan C Says:

I think the newest Itouch will be the “it” Christmas present this year. I know it is tops on my wish list!

NickW Says:

Hats, Socks and Scarves!

Zelig Says:

October 31st, 2008 at 3:27 am

Hard to choose, but I think that a nice smartphone with touchscreen, wifi, gps and so on will be perfect. Maybe something not Apple, I mean… Something like an HTC touch pro or a SE Xperia X1. But with a battery that lasts a whole day!!! :-)

I work at a University, and it is amazing how many studetns are talking about wanting the new iPod that can play games. I have a feelgin that will be a big selling item. (I wouldn’t want one due to the lowered storage level compared to the non-gaming iPods)

Mike Says:

October 31st, 2008 at 6:02 am

I think it would be the chumby. If you haven’t seen it just search for “Chumby” on this website. I want one!

Abdullah Kamran Says:

October 31st, 2008 at 6:10 am

I think it is one of the nice DSLR’s like Olypmus E-3 or Olympus E520 (for budget users)

Brian Olsen Says:

Blackberry Storm!!

David Says:

If Sony includes these features in its digital picture frames, it should be a hit. A higher memory capacity (8 GB) if in-built could be an excellent feature. Also add a few other additional features such as FM Radio, Clock/Calendar (perhaps already available) and a killer touchscreen (with zoom function). Could possibly use this as a PC monitor too. Wow!

I think Digital Photo Frames will continue to be popular, as will Nintendo Wii’s, they make a great present for the whole family to play!

wow Says:

November 1st, 2008 at 8:50 am

A picture frame that can be linked to a phone so you can recieve photo’s from friends and family instantly.

Clay Says:

Coolest gadget this year? The picture frame if I win it.

Mark Roedel Says:

November 1st, 2008 at 11:38 am

I hate to sound like an echo, but iPod Touch and digital picture frames sure do seem likely to be the popular items. (Me, I’m hoping my preorder from openpandora.org ships in time for the holidays…)

I think for a lot of people it will be a new HDTV. Digital is in and analog is out. You don’t have much of a choice come February.

Tom Says:

November 10th, 2008 at 10:18 am

Surely the must have gadget is an iphone? I know they’re old but not THAT old and everyone still wants one. That is, everyone except me. I hate apple products :-)

inweaknessbe Says:

November 10th, 2008 at 10:28 am

I’m going to have to go with the iPod touch. It was either that or the iPhone, but my guess is that it will do better than the iphone because I’m finding more and more people griping about the carrier.
