I'd have to say the PS3 Slim. I know it is just a "shrunk-down" version of the original console but I think it looks nice and comes with a bigger HDD as standard .

Even though Ive used soldering irons in the past, but it has to be my Maplins temperature controlled soldering iron and electronic desoldering iron. Recently, Ive been interested in screwdrivers Wouldnt call them gizmo's though!
