His much-loved Fujitsu Tablet Notebook has been around for as long as he can remember, and Ankur Aggarwal, joint MD of the Piron Group, is keenly looking forward to VoIP-enabled high-end cellphones.

What’s the one gizmo you can’t wait to get your hands on?
I would love to try out a good GPS system. This technology is a wonderful thing to have at the fingertips thanks to its immense usability.

What’s the most overpriced gadget in the market right now?
I think PC Free Wi-fi Projectors are really overpriced products. Due to their high price I believe they have not yet gained the momentum that technology like this should have gained.

What’s the one gadget yet to launch that you are looking forward to?
There are a lot. However, I am keen to have a feel of VoIP-enabled high-end cellphones. I think they are going to be a fantastic product.

Which is one of the first gadgets you bought that you still use?
The Fujitsu Tablet Notebook was my first gadget, and I am still using it. It’s a flawless product.

Whether it’s for gifting or receiving one, my first choice will be a notebook. It brings a lot of value to a professional’s daily work schedule.

Name one gadget that is a great product but hasn’t received its due in the market?
The Sony UX Notebook. This palm-size with the high-end PC configuration is a great product.

What must-have gizmo would you recommend for everyone?
I would recommend 3G phones. 3G, or third-generation, cellular technology will satisfy all bandwidth-hungry applications such as full-motion video, video-conferencing and full Internet access.

What gadget do you use as a stress-buster?
I think iPods are great stress-busters.

What’s the highest-performance yet easiest to handle gadget?
If we look at performance as well as usability, BlackBerry is the product to have.

Is there a gizmo you have not been able to figure out yet?
Even though I have been using different gadgets for quite some time, one which I have not yet figured out is the Pen Scanner.

What gadget do you remember to carry with you everywhere you go, apart from your cellphone?
I always make sure that I carry a high-capacity and small form-factor pen drive with me.
