Ang arte ko naman at baka off-topic na ito. Pero mga bro and sis, i am just being technical about it, hoping to initiate understanding of the terms "conveyance" and "gadget". Dun sa mga maa-asar o mako-cornihan for whatever reason...my apologies. Heto yung simple research ko. Dalawang sources lang...

 

1) Sabi ng Wikipedia... A gadget or gazza is a device that has a useful specific practical purpose and function. Gadgets tend to be more unusual or cleverly designed than normal technology. In some circles the distinction between a gadget and a gizmo is that a gizmo has moving parts, whereas a gadget need not have them. For example, a nifty digital watch would be a gadget, while an analog watch would be a gizmo.

 

  therefore: a car may be considered more as a gizmo than a gadget, if we were to force ourselves along that argument;

 

2) Sabi naman ni Webster... "an often small mechanical or electronic device with a practical use but often thought of as a novelty"

 

  therefore: generally, a car may not be considered as a gadget because of its size

 

Pero, siguro a matter of usage lang yan. Basta nagkakaintindihan. Sabi nga ni The Russian Mafia: “i think that is the same…”

 

Anyway, I go along with Russian Mafia's thought: necessity ba o luxury? The answer is Both! So, subjective siya. Kc necessity for one may already be a luxury to another and vice-versa. Sa akin, it will always be a conveyance unless I win the LOTTO jackpot. O sa Deal? Or No deal?

I guess all that is true from a certain perspective. After all, one *can* really get to the point of deciding that a car (any car, of any price or feature set) is a decided luxury, especially in locales where one can pretty much get from Point A to Point B via other means.

 

In that sense, my initial comment was predicated on this:

 

Given a choice of vehicles, at roughly the same price-point and total cost-of-ownership, would you prefer to get a car that has more 'gadgets' (or gizmos) than the one that doesn't? And if the former, would that then qualify your car as essentially a gadget (or gizmo) since that was the deciding factor?

 

Examples of gadgets/gizmos that can be had in cars (built-in/factory-installed as opposed to after-market or portable devices):

 

- GPS Navigation (voice-activated or touch-screen)

- Bluetooth connectivity (voice-activated, hands-free access to your bluetooth-enabled phone)

- DVD entertainment systems

- Air-conditioned seats (yup, they make 'em)

- Reclining/Massaging passenger seats (ditto)

- Multiple power outlets for sundry portable electronics

- Rear-view cameras

- Sonar parking sensors

- Radar distance monitors (for automated disance-keeping while on cruise control)

- Lane departure monitors

- Swiveling headlights

- Infrared cameras

- Rain-sensing wipers

- etc etc etc

It's a 2.5" hard disk external enclosure which comes with USB attachment to connect to your laptop or desktop so u can use it to store MP3, WMA, MPEG and DivX files, or even VOB files ripped from DVDs. You can then use it to play music or video files even without a PC by connecting it to a monitor or TV. Operates with AC/DC adapter or battery pack (4 X AAA) and comes with remote control. (P4,500 for HDD Player + P4,200 for 2.5" hard disk)

That's a good buy ms. W! Creative products are better priced than the iPod.
