I used to. For instance, it was fun to have a Palm Pilot back when few people had handheld devices. But then somewhere along the way I came to realize two things: 1) The fun of getting new gadgets tends to be short-lived. Unless I absolutely can't find my away around with it (like my TomTom GPS), any device I get eventually ends up wasting space on some corner of my desk. 2) Most people worth talking to are more interested in what you do rather than what you own. As the guy from Sh!t My Dad Says put it, "You didn't invent it, you just bought it. Anybody can do that."
