    All Giz Wants: The One True Internet Pizza Ordering App Framework

    Today was a very special day in pizza tech news. First, Dominos, oh boy Dominos: you've automated pizza ordering and delivery in a way that I never specifically thought about, but now that it's out, have already welcomed as a new sign that humans are making progress in this world. You can now order, pay for and track delivery of a pizza from a graphical menu on your TiVo. And on top of that, a free medium Papa John's pie can be yours via its now-painfully-antiquated web delivery system all for becoming a fan of PJ's on Facebook. More »

    Fantasy Gadget: The Ultimate Next Generation Connected TiVo Box

    TiVo has been setting the bar for timeshifting television (what you want, when you want it) for the better part of a decade. Its latest models, the TiVo Series 3 and TiVo HD, further refine and extend functionality to high definition TV and downloadable movies. But the future might not be so bright for TiVo, as other players such as Microsoft' Vista Media Center, Apple's Apple TV, Netflix's Roku player, and upstarts like the Vudu aim to drink their milkshake. What's a company to do? Innovate. Use the internet. Connect users together. Go beyond broadcast TV. Here's what we think TiVo needs to prioritize in their next box in order to dominate the living room for the next decade. More »

    All Giz Wants: Laptops With a Tiny Battery Backup For Hot Swapping

    A lot of pros who use their laptops in the field have to power down or plug in between swapping batteries. Often, this happens multiple times a day. It's time consuming, and well, I'd love it if a professional grade laptop had a small battery, maybe 100ma or so, that could keep your laptop powered up during live battery swaps. More »

    All Giz Wants: A Jetpack That Costs $200

    We don't ask for much here at Gizmodo, but what we really, really want is a jetpack that costs $200. Sure, we have brought you the deal with jetpacks before, but we want something that lasts longer than two minutes, (so do our girlfriends). Also, we would not mind a Jetsons-type transportation mode that costs less than $200,000; to be exact, a $200 price point would be ideal. So, what would we do with our stratosphere explorers? More »

    All Giz Wants: Consumer Electronics That Don't Act Like PCs

    I know "All Giz Wants" are supposed to be fantasies involving shiny objects, but this really is my fantasy: I'd like high-def disc players that don't flash "unreadable" error messages, receivers that can pull music from a network without headaches—in general, home electronics that aren't shacked by Ethernet plugs, firmware-update discs, slow boot times and mandatory periodic hard restarts.

    All Giz Wants: A Gaming PC With the Soul of a Console

    As grown-up and burly as this generation of consoles has become, we still like doing some of our gaming on the PC, especially when it comes to first-person shooters. But our ultimate gaming PC isn't what's come to typify the phrase "gaming PC." We don't want some tricked out, neon Barad-dûr bullshit dominating our desktop. More »

    All Giz Wants: One Plug For Everything

    Come with us into the world of fantasy, where there's just one kind of plug and its associated cable that will work for every electronic device. What we would like to see is one cable that carries audio, video and power to or from whatever device you need to use. It needs to be small, it needs to have tremendous bandwidth (perhaps using fiber optics), and it needs to be smart enough not to ruin anything you plug it into. It sure would beat the alphabet soup we have to deal with now. More »

    Addy's Best Christmas Gadget Ever

    A couple of weeks back, our Dear Leader Blam sent round an email asking the team what we wanted for Christmas. So I thought. And I thought. And all I could come up with was this: More »

    All Giz Wants: A Real Universal Remote

    All Giz Wants isn't about wanting what we have now. It's about wanting what we should have now, what's technically possible but practically improbable. Here's an item I've been (wet) dreaming about for some time—a universal remote that's really universal. I don't mean to control both a Blu-ray player and an HD DVD player. I mean to control my TV, computer and the air popper. More »

    All Giz Wants: An All-In-One Set Top Box

    If you've been around long enough, you'll remember All Giz Wants—our series of fanciful and unlikely wishlist items that would totally make this the Best Holidays Ever if we got them. Here's one I've been wishing for for the better part of a decade: an all-in-one set top box that does everything. More »

    YouTube On a Mobile Browser, Please

    That new iPhone commercial brags about it having a great browser. Mactards have even speculating that the iPhone has Flash support, because the NY Times website's video player appears to load up fine. But the commercial also skips over the agonizing four-minute load time it would take to cache all those ads, images, flash movies, and did they not notice there is weird baby music playing while some disembodied voice narrates? Dropping in a fake placeholder for the video just isn't out of the question. It doesn't matter, though. More »

    My Birthday Wishes

    I'm 30 today. I woke up this morning and went for a jog up to Twin Peaks. I noticed how much harder it is to run with an extra couple of inches on my waist. Then I looked down and realized it could be the gigantic Halo 3 Zune in my hand. I got back to the apartment, thankful for the kind weather and the rare chance to exercise, and made myself a lumberjack platter of pancakes, three eggs, sausage, bacon, potatoes and a cup of ketchup and maple syrup. Damn Zune, slowing me down. More »

    All Giz Wants: Video Headsets That Don't Suck

    When it comes to watching movies, nothing beats sitting in front of a large HDTV. The catch is, not all of us can afford one. That's where video headsets come in. Devices like Olympus' now defunct EyeTrek that promise panorama-like viewing experiences from a pair of goggles. The problem is they all suck. Headplay says they're working on an HD unit, but watching flicks on the current model has been likened to watching movies on a ViewMaster. More »

    All Giz Wants: Mac Clones Again

    Why, oh why can't there be Mac clones again? The quality of Mac hardware has been steadily declining, and if a user is devoted to OS X and no other, there's no choice for hardware but Apple. More »

    All Giz Wants: The Netflix Set-Top Box

    I, for one, am sick of having to get up off my ass to get new movies to watch. Sure, it's gotten easier since the days that had me driving to the video store to rent a movie (remember video stores? How quaint.), but it's not easy enough. I still need to mail movies back to Netflix and wait a few days for the next film on my list to arrive. Bah! More »

    All Giz Wants: Donations for the Kim Family

    There's a lot of stuff we want for the holidays. Most of it can't be bought on a shelf. Yes, things like Tivo Series 3 for $99. But the guys and I want to make it clear that what we really want is for each of our readers to make a donation to James Kim's family. More »

    All Giz Wants: Zune Done Right

    We may have given high marks to the Zune, but in the end we still chose the iPod as the player of choice for the holidays. But what we'd really like is the Zune to be done right. More »
