2. Segway The Segway PT uses LeanSteer Technology to get you to where you want to go. Gently move the LeanSteer frame and handlebar left or right in the direction you want to travel and machine will respond strait away. The Segway PT balances by using five micro-machined angular rate sensors and two accelerometers that sense the changing terrain and your body position at 100 times per second.

3. iPod It was overshadowed by iPhone mania, but Apple's iPod Touch is practically as cool as its cousin. It is like an MP3 player that not only plays music and games, but also stores contacts and calendar info. In fact, the Touch does most of the same stuff as the iPhone, minus the calling (and the monthly service and data fees). That makes it a great choice for Blackberry-addicts or anyone else who's happy with their current cell phone, but still wants the iPhone's perks. The iPod Touch has Wi-Fi connectivity and can run hundreds of apps and games from Apple's app store. It even has a feature the iPhone lacks: a Nike program that tracks how far you've jogged. Unlike other portable music players with clunky menus, the Touch also makes it easy to sort, find and play your choice of thousands of songs within seconds. Price: $229 for 8 GB; $299 for 16 GB; $399 for 32 GB

4. Car The Automobile In the early 1900's driving wasn't easy. The dirt roads that horses walked over so simply, were a challenge for the early motorcar. Also, horses were extremely startled whenever their owner started the engine of the car. Even though it was rough, the car soon became a must-have. Some people still hated the car, but there was no turning back. The automobile was here to stay. In the early 1900's, the automobile only drove about as fast as 15 mph. To you and me, that may be very slow. In fact, that is little over the speed limit of a modern parking lot. However, to the people of the early 20th century, it was extremely fast. The first woman to drive coast to coast was Alice Huyler Ramsey, who was a housewife, and a mother from New Jersey. When she did this, she was 22 years old. She drove all the way, although she had three women companions who didn't know how to drive. They left Manhattan on June 9, 1909, and arrived in San Francisco 59 days later on August 7, of the same year. After a long life, Alice Ramsey died in 1983, at age 93 years old.

5. iPhone It was released in 2008 in June. Explaining the $499 threshold price, Steve Jobs notes that the Nano costs $199 and a smartphone today typically sells for $299. Combining the two gets you just under $499. "Your life in your pocket," says Jobs. Jobs says he's aiming for a one percent share of the cell phone market by 2008, or roughly 10 million units sold. In 2006, 1 billion cell phones were sold.

6. Internet Unlike technologies such as the light bulb or the telephone, the Internet has no single “inventor.” Instead, it has evolved over time. The Internet got its start in the United States more than 50 years ago as a government weapon in the Cold War. For years, scientists and researchers used it to communicate and share data with one another. Today, we use the Internet for almost everything, and for many people it would be impossible to imagine life without it.

7. iPad First generation Apple began taking pre-orders for the iPad from U.S. customers on March 12, 2010. The Wi-Fi version of the iPad went on sale in the United States on April 3, 2010. The Wi-Fi enabled 3G version was released on April 30. The iPad was initially only available online at The Apple Store as well as the company's retail locations. The iPad has since been available for purchase through many retailers including Amazon, Wal-Mart, Best Buy, Verizon, and AT&T. The iPad was launched in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Spain, Switzerland and the United Kingdom on May 28. Israel briefly prohibited importation of the iPad because of concerns that its Wi-Fi might interfere with other devices. On September 17, 2010, the iPad officially launched in China. The device was initially popular with 300,000 iPads being sold on their first day of availability. By May 3, 2010, Apple had sold a million iPads, this was in half the time it took Apple to sell the same number of original iPhones. During the October 18, 2010, Financial Conference Call, Steve Jobs announced that Apple had sold more iPads than Macs for the Fiscal Quarter. In total, Apple sold more than 15 million first generation iPads prior to the launch of the iPad 2.

8. DVD Player It has been around for many years now. The first one was created by Sony in 1996 in Japan. A DVD player is a device that plays discs under both the DVD-Video and DVD-Audio. However, with the release of high definition media, sales and popularity are expected to drop in the upcoming years.
