Welcome to Gadget Gore, the place where gadgets come to die!
Give us your crushed, your cracked,
Your broken gadgets yearning to be fixed,
The wretched refuse of your electronics drawer.
Send these, the hopeless, tempest-tossed to us,
We'll post the photos and the share the gore!

Jettisoned PSP
This PSP 3000 was, apparently, left on the back of a friend's car - a mistake which left only a fifth of the screen opertaional - ouch!
Thanks for the submission Yopi. In case you're wondering, TechRestore can fix this for $89 and, if you use coupon code "gorerestore" you'll get $10 off!
Here's a video of an iPhone 3GS being shot with a 9mm pistol and then lit on fire.
I can't say that I'd pick this particular music and I'm not about to give up my Mac, but there is some interesting footage. FYI, melting plastics does release toxic gasses and deplete the ozone, so don't try this at home.
This iPod touch was touched just a bit too hard. A small dent on the back reveals how it broke, but I'm thinking that, since the digitizer touch input still works fine, this is basically the best theft prevention method possible! Am I right?
24-hours and $99 later, this puppy's good to go. Better than paying $300 for a new one, for sure!Click here for the iTouch screen repair service, if you need it.
Ok, ok, I know that break-dancing isn't a retro thing, since people never stopped doing it after the '80s, but I hadda come up with something. The problem with music players that fit in your pocket is that...well...they fit in your pocket! Which isn't necessarily a good thing, especially when it's your back pocket. Wanna know why girls jeans don't have pockets in the back? It's so they won't sit on their iPods (proving that women are smarter than men, demanding more functional fashions).
