Giveaway: Sony. Experience More – the future?

intro_header.jpg

Today we’ll get down to simple questions again. What gadgets and/or gear are you most hoping will change your life in future? Again, our favourite 20 will win double passes to the Sony. Experience More event next Friday night. And again, that’s passes into the show – you gotta get yourself there.

And if you’ve already won, you can’t win again – you only get one double pass. If you want friends to come, get them to enter! Doesn’t mean you can’t have some fun and share your thoughts on our question of the day, though.

UPDATE: Doesn’t have to be Sony related! Just tell us whatever you think, or make jokes, or whatever you like.

Also, an early warning. Tomorrow is set to be a speed round, with all remaining tickets going to the first ‘x’ comments.

    Cheers for the free tix boys – much appreciated.

    As for life-changing tech, I think the X Series will do it for me.

    I’ve been holding off buying a next-gen console (360 or PS3… still not convinced about the Wii yet… ah, who am I kidding, I have no friends to come around and play with me) because I don’t have a decent display.

    Planning on getting a 40in X Series soon, or on the cheap when the new LCDs from Sony come out (assuming there are still some floating around – no pun intended). Once that bad boy is in place, then the Xbox 360 Elite and PS3 are next on my list (I’m hoping GT5 is out by then, and stores are still selling Gears of War and Table Tennis for the 360)

    With apparent Global warming, advancements in Fuel/Engine technology will impact and change my life in the future, esp. me being a car nut.

    Also battery and cell development will be interesting. Although gadgets and technology is getting faster, more powerful and smaller, battery life will need to be addressed. Although handy, wireless technolgy such as bluetooth, wifi, etc still chew up battery quickly.

    Sony related… Pr0n and more pr0n on Blu Ray!!! bring it on, im looking forward to watching pr0n on my HD 1080p Bravia X series through my PS3, on Blu Ray!!!

    After arduously painting my entire apartment this last week or so, I thought, “Why, oh why do they not have some thin material you could put on your walls and illuminate with whatever damn colour/texture/image whenever you like.

    A totally integrated personal communication device that integrates with everything i use to interface with all my data (mail/data/web/media/apps/calendar/to-dos) on a network that can support it. At the moment palm/blackberry devices are interim solutions, having to sync, not being able to run all the stuff that I use day to day. The iphone looks like it was trying to do that better but again falls short.

    Oh and a watch that gives me an extra 5 minutes every hour would be handy!

    Already got tickets thankx to Gizmodo.

    I look forward to the day, where newspapers are obsolete, food packaging is less wasteful and cars lie abandoned in the streets.

    Hopefully by then my house will be at least Tech level 10, and the tiberium farm will be doing just nicely.

    Inspector Gadget Implants.

  • Franky K

    I am looking forward to teleportation portals. Has someone invented one of those yet?

    Yeah I got a joke…

    Heard about the new sushi bar that caters exclusively to lawyers?

    It’s called, Sosumi.

    Yeah I am lame…. and I am not afraid to show it to get those free Sony tickets!

  • Michael

    Actually, Sosumi is located in the basement of the GPO, at No 1 Martin Place in Sydney. Never tried it – it’s one of those sushi-train places.

    Only two recent gadgets have changed my life: my mobile phone and my Topfield PVR (changes how you watch TV forever). Other gadgets are just incremental improvements on something that already existed (eg, plasma TVs). I’ve had a few PDAs in my time, and my life never changed. My iPod is great, and it changed my life for a little while, but I don’t use it all that much anymore.

    If the internet could be called a ‘gadget’, then it has had a MAJOR impact on my life.

    So what *could* change my life? Teleportation would be huge. A mind control implant (to enable control of other gadgets) would be enormous.

    Otherwise, most gadgets fall into the “great, but not enough time in my schedule” (e.g. my Wii) or the “hardly ever need to use it” (e.g. GPS). I think the killer gadgets of the future will be those that change how we do *existing* things, rather than being entirely new activities (there is no time for that).

    Something that’ll pull women. Like Pheromones, in gadget form.

    My N95 is such a big turn off. :(

    If that doesn’t happen, then i think i’d really like a Hover board; like the one in Back to the Future. In pink too.

  • Mr.Crash.

    I thought I won tickets before… But no email?

    :( I am sad… My haiku about sony was the most inventive thing i’ve ever written!

    … Ok not really but I liked it.

    Cheers.

  • poo

    Ummm… do I get a ticket for writing this? I mean you seem to have loads that no body is interested in right? And you said write anything…

    Just curious…

  • Tik L

    If there were more soft, slightly firm, slightly gooey, slightly stretchy, gel-inside sortof things, then the world would be a nicer place. Make more things that arent so hard, but with more bits of soft, nice-to-squeeze stuff, that’d be good.

    Mmmm….squeezy

  • R.Winslade

    For a ‘totally integrated personal communication device’, try finding a PDA with a 640×480 resolution for decent viewing, install VNC on it, and get it to access a computer at home, which is also at that screen resolution.

    Ok I guess it’s not totally that, but I was going to use that Sushi bar joke. =)

  • lawson

    I cant wait for them Japanese robots to be released at an affordable price.I think it would be pretty cool to have a robot to do your shopping,cooking,chores or even work from work for you lol.

  • nick

  • carney

    I’m still waiting for the sony Ipod killer
