I know, the year is not over. but: whats your personal favorite (tech) innovation this year? hardware/software, gadgets, web/offline,...

Google Gears is good first step towards something greater.

I like the iPhone usability from the videos I saw (never tried it so far). I like Friendfeeds.com, perhaps it's not revolutionary (I suppose there's other sites like it) but I ended up using it every other day. Then, my personal favorite development (re)discovery was how useful ExplorerCanvas can be :)

Philpp, I disagree with Iphone..Randy has a good casehere
