We wanted a monkey butler and bought one off eBay. Imagine our surprise when we found it was just an ordinary monkey with rabies. Worse: It had no butler training at all. Tell us about your duff technology purchases.
Thanks to Moonbadger for the suggestion

The Sony NW-HD1 - supposed ipod killer, which on specs it was. Huge 20gb hard drive, twice the battery life, half the physicals size...
The fact it ran on some stupid Sony format and was locked to the horrible Sony software somehow didn't seem to be issues when I bought the thing.
I will have to say though, when it worked it was brilliant, and survived many years of hard use until eventually wearing out, at which point I replaced it with a much more modern Sony player that works via plug and play and reads mp3. Re-ripping a few hundred albums from cd was certainly fun...
