Well the oldest device I still regularly use is probably my electric guitar. Well my brother got it but I prefered it to my own, and when he stopped playing I just took it, Hee hee... Also, if you're a musician this will sicken you, but I don't think the strings have ever been changed on that one, and he got it about 4 years ago...
I have a Sony shelf CD/Stereo system that cost me $300 in 1998. It still cranks out AMAZING sound (even from audio tapes), although the CD player is starting to go buggy on me.
My talking alarm clock. I got it in the early 90s and so long as i keep AA batteries in it, it annoyingly wakes me in time to head out to work. I have some older consoles but they don't really get used anymore. Plus, they'd probably look terrible on my large LCD HDTV.
My boyfriend has a W-reg Megane Scenic that's done about 132,000 miles... No major problems, touch wood!cuddly_tomato said:
My cellphone, it's display is B&W, however i don't feel guilty throwing it around (by accident or on purpose) so i keep it
I could swear I still had a Commodore lying around. Should it have vanished, than the Gameboy classic takes the first price.
In other news, I still own a stopwatch made in the USSR (yup, the ol' sovjets), however, I'm not sure what year is was fabricated. Sure hope it's in the fourties, haha. But I guess sixties/seventies, something like that. Even if it should be made in the eighties, it would still be the single oldest device I own. I haven't used it that much, though. On second thought, that honor should go to the wristwatch I wore for years on end, which dates back to something like 1974 (still guessing). Got it from my grandpa.
And that's about it. Funny to see that many people fill in rather new devices, such as 'PS3', 'mp3-player', etc. while others still cling onto the old consoles and gadgets

No, seriously; how the hell did you last that long with one pair of strings. Gimme three months and half of the guitar needs replacing .

A couple years back I found all my parents old cassettes, so naturally I asked for a sony walkman, cassette player, for chrismas. Even though it is from 2005 or so(The last model they ever made), I still love the looks I get from people when I pop it out on the bus, haha.
Better than CD players for running since no worry about skipping, cheaper than mp3 players (I think it was only 10 dollars and I have access to all the classic rock cassettes I could dream of). Only down sides are music volume capacity and batteries. Still worth it though
I also have a pair of headphones with the amp-jack at the end from the 70's so I have an adapter to the 3.5mm. Awesome headphones since NO sound gets though them even though noise cancelling was not an option back then.

My iPod, from about 4 or 5 years ago, when they released the iPod Video. Except the apple OS stopped working on it so I had to install Rockbox.
