I use the iPad and iPod Touch every day. They do "just work".
I like my recently acquired Moto G too though. The Android flexibility rocks, portable hotspot+iThings = Happy Techie.

My current favorite is my Bamix stick mixer. Soups in minutes (on an induction cooktop). I mostly use it for cakes but my mushroom soup is yummy

Tell you what, I reckon he best appliance I've ever bought is our induction cooktop and dual oven. It's so precise that I reckon you could sous vide with it and a temperature gauge.
You do need an induction cooktop, not only are they safer, they are cheap to run, very precise and easy to clean.
I will never be without one again. IE: If I moved to a house that didnt have one it would be the first thing I would change.
Oh and edit, faster than gas to boil and able to maintain a lower temperature, for Melting chocolate etc than gas.

I've just got the new blackberry, it is a quality bit of kit, being my first smart phone I can't make comparisons but it's piss easy to get used to, the work and personal modes are great. Get reception where alot of phones lose it too

I just read some reviews on it and it looked good, so I got it.
The smart remote also controls other devices that aren't Samsung e.g. my LG Blu Ray player. So all good.

When I get to have me 'dream kitchen' I am aiming for domino cooktops. 2 inductions and a gas (probably a wok burner) or one of these Wok burner If I was going for all gas, I would love one of these http://www.hoover.co.uk/large-applia...oom/HF_7_1.jpg

We got ours a couple of months ago and still use it most days. Perfectly cooked steaks, beautifully moist chicken breast and ribs to die for with no risk of over cooking because you took you eye off it for a minutes or 10.
Last weeks roast was 24 hour silverside, tender, with all fat nicely melted, and medium rare all the way through.

Kindle Paperwhite version 2. There is sure to be another out in a couple of months but currently this is the best ereader available.

Even if Middlechild does insist on sending programmes to the telly while I'm watching Antiques Roadtrip
I also love (in no particular order)
my kindle (although I still appear to be buying just as many paper books too) (and it isn't new, it's about 4 years old)
my quick/slow cooker thingy (this is, however, about 3 years old)
my new Samsung S4 (yes, I could have got the S5 but I would have had to pay extra and I don't actually get a phone signal here) especially as virginmobile sent me a case of wine for free, just for getting it.
My vivofit activity tracker. That red bar of death certainly helps me get my steps in for the day.
