FORTUNE -- The big manufacturers are pushing a range of tech gadgets for Christmas shoppers. If I had an unlimited budget, I would explore these things.
- Gateway is selling a 42" ED Plasma TV ($2799).
- HP's DV Movie Writer ($399) and PhotoSmart 245 portable printer ($199) would be instantly viable in my home.
- Dell's 17" LCD television/monitor is $699.
- I lust for Sony's Vaio All-in-one-PC/TV and it's well-priced at $1599.
- Archos Gmini 120 MP3 Jukebox is media player for someone who dares to be different. It is an ideal digital portable player and costs €350.
- There is no phone smarter than the Sony Ericsson P900. It's high resolution colour screen kicks the pants off anything else on the market. You need €380 plus an airtime contract when buying it in Ireland.
- USB key by Memorex. It's the coolest USB key on the market.
- SanDisk 1GB microdrive Compact Flash card. Because my Fuji S602Z camera eats memory when I use its video mode.
