What was your favourite peice of technology 10 years ago?

Mint Sauce

Thread just inspired by a TV ad, one of their responces was a walkman. To be honest, I think its coming on 12 years since I played a cassette.

My favourite peice of technology was a mini disk player. Wow how them things took off.

My Sony MP3 CD walkman - an important, if brief step in the evolution of personal music devices.

Yeah.. close enough!

The Rio retailed for US $200 with the ability to hold around 1 hours music at a bitrate of 128 kbit/s.

It was great for about 2 years when the holder for the battery worn away so had to use a combination of glue and tin-foil to keep it going.

Probably my mobile phone. The technological progress of the last 10 years seems to have been made at lightning speed. When I was in 6th year 10 years ago, phones with crappy cameras were only becoming mainstream. When I started college in 2003 I was still using a floppy disc to save my essays.

its made how fast phone tech goes, sure the iphone is 5 years old now, the original 2g model is a dinosaur of a phone, no mms, cant forward texts, no copy and paste, slow ass internet. you could get a 50 quid phone that would be better these days.
