Good list, with the iphone and tivo making a major impact on my life for sure.

The worst inclusion on that list? The Motorola RAZR ... what a shitty phone that was! I had one, it was horrible.

I think the Xbox should have been on there for what it's done for console/in the living room online activities.

Other than that, good list. The RAZR should be on there since it sold more than 50 million units. That's a ton of phones and it did start the thin phone trend.

I was going to be upset if TiVo wasn't on there. I got to 18 and started getting antsy.

But, I was glad to see the iPod and PS2 on there... The PS2 really did revolutionize game consoles. Great controller, good graphics for the time period it was released, an integrated DVD player, and a massive game library..

The PS2 was the first console that seemed like it came from a legitimate company in a legitimate industry.

Super Nintendo, Genesis, PS1, N64, Saturn, all of them still had the feel of a fledgling industry.

Im surprised HD DVD was so far down on the flop list. And not having the Xbox in the best is a shame.

Theirs probably broke, hence leaving it off the list.
