What’s The Most Useless Piece Of Tech That You Own?

It’s probably gathering dust on your shelf or in a nearby drawer.

I have an elderly digital video camera stashed in a bin with the winter sweaters. I enjoy taking videos at musician friends’ shows, and there was a time before phone cameras improved when it was essential to have a dedicated photography machine. Now my Galaxy 6 has a better resolution than my ancient Sony. I don’t think I know where the charger lives.

So what did you buy and then abandon? What technology has fallen out of your favour or lost its purpose, reduced to mere paperweight status?
