$500 to buy any gadget... what would you buy?

The reason I ask is that I have a gift certificate ($500 on Amex, so can be used anywhere) to buy something, and I don't know what. The iPhone is tempting, but not sure it's the answer.

What would you get? (or you may already have something you'd highly recommend... what is it?)

So, it sounds like the overwhelming consensus is 8 Track player for the M5 with an iPhone as 2nd choice.
Thanks guys!
