Thread: How many senior citizens have gadgets?

I have a Wii, and a cell phone with a camera and games in it that I am fussing with a lot. Like, in the doctor's waiting room, its a good way to pass the time waiting for doc to see me.

Also have some hand held, battery powered games.

I know you have computers (smile) but how many of you enjoy iPods, cell phones and Wii games. I am 67 and still have tons of fun with family with my gadgets...competitive in Wii, (good exercise and good excuse Ha) the iPod stores pics of family...simple way to carry tons of photos along with music and games. I am the silly grandma, the kids say...that's okay. Silly is fun.

You're not silly, just with it. I have all the same toys. We have to keep up with the times

I also have a digital camera, an IPOD and a new Samsung Gravity cell phone.
I was looking at - but avoiding the cost of - small, digital photo albums and then I saw the 4th generation IPOD nano. Music and pictures all together - love it.
I like the qwerty keyboard on my cell because its the only way I can really text.
I bought a western digital portable hard drive just as a back up for all my pictures and music and family history stuff in case the computer implodes and it already came in handy. Just went years with the old stuff and decided to have some fun this year.

I guess if I could afford it I would have every geeky gadget out there. Although I say the same thing about books.

But, in the long run, what I really like best is an afternoon in a coffee shop with good friends and plenty of time to talk.
