The Psi-scan from Red Dwarf that somehow knows everything. That'd be great.

Either that or some kind of hologram technology.

Not really a device, but the babel fish from Hitchhiker. It would be so cool to understand every language.

Like from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, a food making device. It basicly reads your thoughts and makes the exact same food you're thinking of. I would use it for an infinite supply of Cola, I never get enough of the Coke.

I want a device which eliminates any other implausible device, i.e. inertial compensators, et cetera.
You do realize that an "inertial compensator" is just artificial gravity turned on its side, right? In fact, artificaial gravity opens up a whole slew of awesome tech, from impenetrable shields to tractor beams to reactionless engines. Gravity control is so awesome that I'd want a finite improbability inducer(Hitchhiker's Guide) so I could make the devices that accomplish it. Along with making someone's buttons disappear one by one.

Sning("Sning, contraction of SNake rING" replied Norton). If anyone at all knows what that is I will be amazed. It is however one of the GREATEST objects to own I think. Very handy and portable.

would anyone else be happy with just the simple Babel Fish?
Either that or the Universal Translator from Star Trek, the TNG version that was apparently a little implant thing that went in your ear.

I'm gonna be dull and say a Holodeck.

Think about it. Essentially a free portal to any world/storyline you want. You can create anything within the deck from weapons to people.

Damn, you stole my words.
Thief.

Anyway, I guess I'll go with most of the technology from Futurama and make that into a nice comfy lounge for me and my alien and robot friends.
I happen to be a very good thief, to say the very least.

Bollocks to that, Eddie made something much better in Bottom Live 5... The "T.U.R.D.I.S."
Oh, that's nice.

The Holo Deck from the Enterprise. I would be rich beyond your wildest dreams. The franchise rights alone would buy me half of America.
