2. 11-inch Macbook Air 2010
Measuring only 0.11-inch at its thinnest point and weighing just 2.3 lbs, new 11-inch Macbook Air is the Lightest Apple Notebook ever! But don't let its lightweight form factor and reed thin figure fool you, it comes with technical specifications that are right up there with those of supposedly more powerful bigger laptops. 11-inch Macbook Air is powered by a 1.4 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 2GB of RAM and 128 GB of Flash Storage and NVIDIA GeForce 320M Graphics.

3. Sony CyberShot TX9
If there's anything better than HD photos, it's 3D Panoramic shots! Point-and-Shoot camera, Sony CyberShot TX9 allows photo enthusiasts to capture panoramic photos in 3D with Sony's exclusive 3D Sweep Panorama feature. Users simply have to sweep the camera in a vertical or horizontal direction to capture ultra-wide panorama shots in 3D that users can then view on a compatible screen that supports 3D-viewing via HDMI.
Price: PhP 27,999
4. iPod Touch 4G
The iPod Touch is actually the world's most popular portable gaming device and it's also arguably the most gorgeous. It flaunts a so-called Retina display, similar to iPhone 4's, which packs 326 pixels per inch -- so dense that the human eye is unable to pinpoint individual pixels when the gadget is held at normal distance. But as much as its gorgeous, it's also powerful. The new Apple A4 chip provides the 4th Generation iPod Touch with exceptional processing power and graphics performance along with an extended battery life. This remarkably power-efficient and fast chip, combined with 3-axis gyro and the Retina display, makes iPod Touch an excellent multimedia device.
