  2. The coolest technology that I have seen and toyed with is the iphone. It not only allowed me to do what a normal cell phone does like text and call but also check my email. Also some other applications I enjoyed using was one to check sporting event scores and stats. It also allowed me to download and play games. Whenever I got bored I could pull out the iphone and use its features to entertain myself.

  3. The coolest technology I have seen or experienced would be my boyfriend's Android phone. I love playing with his phone. I think it is so cool how I can check my e-mail on it, look at youtube videos on it, and search the web. I also love the different wallpapers avaiable on his phone. My phone isn't as up to date as his phone so that's why I am so amazed by his.

  4. The coolest technology that I have ever seen is probably the ipad. It is one of the most innovative, and creative gadgets on the market right now. It's one step up from the ipod touch, iphone, and mac computer. But you can do all the same things on it, with the exception of a phone call. It is the perfect size for class, and for on the go usage. It's like a small version of my mac, and it's easier to carry around. This is a number one on my christmas list.

  5. I'd have to say my GPS is my coolest technology still. It's nice to not have to worry about getting lost anymore and have gps guide you to your destination. Once I feel like buying a smart phone and spending another $30 a month for the data package, that will probably be my coolest technology!

  6. The coolest technoglogy that I have is my GPS. It's an Avitron and one of it's cool features is the ability to tell you if there are speed traps coming up on the road. I'm not entirely sure if it is legal, but it has been very helpful in the longrun.

  7. The Android phone is probably the coolest technology I have seen so far. It includes nearly everything you could possibly think of like internet, music, applications, GPS, weather updates, games and loads more. you can also have cool applications like Skype that I find really useful so I can call family members that are at home in Ireland easily. They are pretty expensive to buy new but are well worth it I think.

  8. I believe the coolest technology for Physical education is the Pocket pc. The Pocket pc can be used for class attendance and separating students for a certain class activity. It makes Everything faster so the students can get as much physical education class time as possible

  9. I think the coolest technology is the NASA space shuttles. I can't even phathom how much power is created by the lift off of one of those shuttles. It's amazing that we have the technology to travel to different planets

  10. I think that the coolest technology I have ever seen has to be the inclined plain. While it is only one of the simple machines there have been many great feats achieved through the use of the inclined plain. Some people even think that the Great pyramids were created using this. It's cool because it can solve complex problems, while being simple to create and use.

  11. I think the coolest technology is the Droid phone. The Droid can do anything a normal computer can do. You can manage bank accounts, check email, compose excel sheets, etc. It is basically a mini computer. There really isn't anything that you can't do with a Droid phone.

  13. I think that the coolest technology is the kindle. I love that you can have so many books in one location. It allows people to take hundreds of books in the palm of your hand. Its also convenient for college students because you are able to buy your text books on the kindle.

  14. I think that the coolest thing ever created was the Itouch 4. it is a video camera, web cam, phone ( free texting and calling in wifi area's), and anything anyone ever wanted in one device. I did not think it was going ot be that big of a change from the last Itouch, but it really is a great tool!

  15. One of the coolest pieces of technology I have seen recently is called Pointstreak. The Pointstreak system is a small device that serves as an electronic score sheet that can be used for many team sports. This past summer the Penguins partnered with the Pointstreak company and have supplied all the local Pittsburgh ice rinks with them. This system allows for paper score sheets to be eliminated but even more so it is connected to the internet so it can provide live scoring updates of high school and amateur hockey games. At the new Consol Energy Center, there is a board that displays scores of all the local teams. With that, players can access their stats online and connect them to their facebook page or myspace page. Its just a new way to expand the game of hockey.

  16. I think the coolest thing created is the automobile. Could you imagine living life without the luxary of walking outside and getting into a vehicle and traveling somewhere? Live as we know it never would have changed from years and years ago and we would be stuck in the old fashion lifestyle. There would be very few individuals going away to college or traveling farther from home for work. All kids throughout school would have a more local school within walking distance with smaller school districts. Everyone would receive more exercise my walking or riding bikes as a means of transportation, but without automobiles the lives we live today would not be possible.

  17. I think the coolest piece of technology is the cell phone. Just think, not too many years ago they did not exist. It has become such an integral part to everyone's lives today. It has helped to make things so much more convenient. You can contact anyone, at anytime, at any place. It's hard to imagine not being able to call someone from the car. But it doesn't stop there. Now cell phones can do just about anything. Take pictures and video, email, surf the web, listen to music, and all kinds of appsfor anything you can imagine. And on top of all that, they are incredibly small.

  18. Although its older I still think the Ipod is one of the coolest pieces of technology. I remember the days of hauling a personal CD player and a case full of CD's. Now I can take an Ipod that fits in the palm of my hand and listen to all of my favorite music!

  19. The coolest pieces of technology I have ever seen is SportMaster Pro. This is used in baseball scouting. It is small touch screen that scouts can use to write notes on plug in video camera or radar guns into and it records everything all at once. It puts it all into a game outline and shows pitch speed location and if connected to camera you can write out what happened on the play. Some teams use this send it into the club house and coaches can get this info at anytime during a game, along with players. This is really cool device, I have only seen it a few times but would love to have one.

  20. The coolest technology I know is the ipod touch, I haven't got one myself but one of my team mates has one and sometimes lets me use it. Not only can it hold and play music, but music videos too. You can also watch movies and tv shows. It has a camera, video recorder, loads of games, web browser, check out the weater and one thing I thought came in really handy for us one day when we got lost going to a game is the featur called Maps. It basicaly finds where you are and gives you the map of all the roads around you. It definitly got us out of a pickle! Really cool I want one!

  21. sOccket is one of the latest innovative toys I have recently discovered. It's a soccer ball that captures energy during game play and then is used to charge LEDs and batteries. The sOccket ball was created by Harvard students and was marketed in South Africa during the 2010 men's World Cup. The idea is to create energy cheaply for the poor.

  22. The coolest technology I have seen is probably the iPad. Some people claim its just a big iPhone but I have actually got to play with one and they are very addicting. I have heard many things about the apps, like one for a universal remote, or the chess and other games and add ons. To me I find that technolgoy that is aimed at entertainment is the best. Therefore its easy to understand why I think that the iPad is the coolest technology.

  23. The coolest technology I have ever seen is the ability for movie makers to create the special effects in today's movies. Everything appears to be very real. It is incredible what these people are able to make happen with a computer program. These computer programs are improving the entertainment business dramatically.

  24. I think that the coolest technology today is motion gaming. I think that it is a lot of fun and I used to hate video games. I think that it allows people to still play the video games that they love, while being active and not just sitting there!

  25. Space Satellites. I believe that satellites are the coolest technology because not only are they important ,but they do not even exist on our planet. They orbit our enormous planet relaying billions of phone calls, television broadcasts, military operations, and countless of other tasks. They provide information about current and even future weather forecasts. I just don't see any other technological advances superior to the satellite.

  26. iPad! I think the iPad is the coolest technology I have ever dealt with. Everyone always looks at them like they're stupid because they look just like a big iPod touch but it's way more than that. They are a great learning tool, productivity tool, music tool, entertainment tool all in one sleek design. Theres thousands of apps for them. I saw a commercial the other day about an app that shows the body in different planes and dissection, that would be a tremendous app for helping in Physical Education and anatomy and physiology classes and regular health education. I think before everyone talks down on the iPad's they need to have one in their hands first.
