Once upon a time I wanted the newest and most awesome invention to ever hit the market! What was it?… a piece of crap lol that’s what all new gadgets are, junk. If anyone has read the book “Needful Things by Steven King, you would know what I am talking about. I stopped myself just minutes ago from purchasing a new audio amp. Do I need one, yes.. but do I need one like I need food? No.. I don’t need one in that sense; my radio only works with an amp. I guess rain got in it from a crack in the windshield and it stopped playing. But back to the amp… I don’t need a new high tech device, a used one will work just as well and be a hell of a lot cheaper! Here are two of the high tech purchases from my past.
- High Tech of the 90′s
Now I doubt anyone recognizes these lol the phone was popular at the time, its one of the first flip phones on the market. People were amazed at how small it was.. its actually very chunky. This is the analog version; the digital one didn’t come until a year later. I remember wanting the new digital all black one but I never got around to getting one, I’m not exactly sure why either. Maybe I wasn’t impressed with having a phone.. who knows lol
The other gadget in the picture is a super cool high tech email device!!! Wow! Lol you would pay a monthly fee to be able to send emails without a computer… kind of like the cell phones we use now lol except, this device didn’t send the emails. You could compose them but the only way to send them would be to call a number. The device had this ear piece thing that covered the mouth of the phone to send and receive signals. It sounded like a fax machine; I think it utilized the same fax technology. BTW why hasn’t someone come out with a better fax machine geez lol
Anyway, those were my two high tech items that I now have absolutely no use for and haven’t a clue what to do with them. I may give them to my 6 year old nephew to play with.. I.e. destroy lol So my advice for you all… don’t buy it unless you absolutely need it!
