Guess which product wins "Gadget of the Year"?Sunday, March 14, 2010Gadget lovers are likely aware of T3 magazine, a glossy UK publication that celebrates consumer electronics. Every year, the editors ask its readers to vote on the best gadgets of the past 12 months in various categories, and the winners have just been announced. “Gadget of the Year” goes to the 32 GB Apple iPod Touch. The judges write, “Fresh from a No. 1 showing in our Hot 100, the Touch beats off all comers to be crowned 2008’s Gadget of the Year, thanks to sterling music features, plus Web and email gubbins.” “Why, with much finer audio quality and twice the storage, not to mention no camera of dubious merit or inflated monthly fee, you could even say it’s better than the iPhone. In fact…you have” continues the rave for the iPod Touch. The Apple iPod touch also won for “Best Music Gadget,” while the Apple iPhone won “Commuter Gadget of the Year.” One note: I’ve included a Brit-centric gadget, the BBC iPlayer, among the list of winners. While you can’t access the TV programming if you live in the United States, you can listen to award-winning radio programming. You can access 14 unique stations on demand from your browser. Here are the other prestigious winners: Best Imaging Gadget: Nikon D60 About This BlogWelcome to The Geek Weekly's blog, which is designed to deliver the latest in tech-related news, rumors, reviews and how-tos for your personal and business needs. You can also expect plenty of opinions, rants and tips. I am a syndicated technology journalist and author. I've spent the last 12 years waist-deep in gadgets, gizmos, gear and games. I'm very much living the "digital lifestyle," whether I'm flashing barcodes on my BlackBerry to board a plane, backing up my laptop's data onto a USB memory watch (Ok, so I know it's geeky) or jamming with my three kids in Rock Band. Like you, I love this stuff. So come back every Monday and Wednesday for new entries. --Marc Saltzman
