Oldest gadget I still use is my 2nd generation ipod touch
my playstation 3 is pretty old (launch model) and is probably the gadget that I have had in my possession for the longest period that i still use (i have an Asian launch psp too but i don't use it). But the oldest is the arcam alpha 8 amp that i bought off ebay for £30 which is more than decade old now.
I still dig out my zx spectrum now and again, and hit some classic games.

i just took that photo which is part of the main setup in the living room
and then it reminded me of this pic i took a week or two ago
that's a sony minidisc full size above a pioneer ntsc/pal ac3 5.1 laserdisc which is connected to my pioneer plasma, and on the bottom is a sony minidisc walkman that i just checked was working earlier in the week and sony pro walkman (audio tape)
1st gen Ipod nano, it lives on a speaker/dock in the kitchen ^^ Its the only thing that's survived this far, pretty much everything else has died a slow painful death
Calculator? I believe this "gadget" will stood the test of time.
my 17" crt monitor used with $800 worth of gaming pc.

On a regular basis? It's got to be be my Motorola V620 mobile, ten years old this November and still on its original battery which still lasts a week.
Occasional gadget use... (if a computer can be deemed a gadget) my A500 which is twenty three years old and still plugging away (Dune II, Hunter and Historyline 1914-1918 still prods buttock on it).
Not really a Gadget but
Toshiba Regza 37WLT66 37" 720p LCD TV is still my main TV in the living room.
Must be 5 years old maybe?
Cisco 2940-8TT-S serial looks like a late 2009

Yep ... still got one myself that is at least 20 years old and it was only last year that i had to change the AA battery for the first time.Originally Posted by EzioAs
My Cambridge Audio amp, cd player and tuner are getting on a bit as are my Mission floorstanders. Also have an electric carving knife which is probably 30 years old.
Do have a Fuji Finepix S9600 camera which i bought new but have never used save for turning it on to make sure it works.
Well i certainly feel abit old now...and im not that old! but i still use my snes....shocking XD but saying that which came first my sega master system or my snes...i dont remember it was that long ago!
It was so small that mine wouldn't fit into it
Master System was older than the Super Nintendo

In 1982 I bought a solar-powered pocket calculator, a Sharp EL-515, for £30. It was bought specifically because it has hex to decimal conversion (I was doing quite a bit of coding back then). I still use it every single working day, though my coding days are long gone. It must have endured millions of key-presses and definitely many beverage spills, but is still as good as new. Definitely my best-ever gadget, and no battery to change!
