For me .. personally the Razer DeathAdder has to be my dear favorite ..
coz of awesome pwnage that was delivered .. having one of my own felt incredible .. I loved it like my child.
and it was the one thing I bought from the earnings of many CS tournaments .. so it has a lot of sentimental value.

Even my first touchscreen phone is indeed Nokia 5800 XM which i almost abused daily for 2 years and it simply resfuses to die.
My only main concern is it's Resistive Touchscreen

+1 for k750i too
Though I never used the phone as it was out of range for me almost 14k
But it was the first phone with which we took printouts of the 2mpx camera and it really gave decent results! !!
I had recommended it to most of my friends at that time
When price fell to 12k it was a no Brainer
K790i couldn't live upto the reputation
Nokia 6600 and k750i have to be the phones off the 2000-2007 period

The k790i was the best 3.2 mp camera phone ever - look at some of the snaps I took with it. Although the one I had was from a defective batch and spent 6 months out of 8 at the service center - it had an amazing camera.
The most VFM investment I have made over the recent years could be my Samsung Netbook N128. Purchased it back in Dec' 09 for Rs. 13,500, it has lasted me for over 3+ years now. The best part is the battery lasts for close to 4 hours now when it does nothing other than downloads. Swapped the onboard 160 GB hard drive with a WD 500 GB BEVT drive and the stock 1 GB DDR2 stick with a 2 GB stick and it has become a notch zippier. Using Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit with the Aero disabled. One of the hinges is broken as of today but other than that it continues to work well. It must have downloaded close to some 12 TB of data as of today. I am not replacing it unless it manages to die completely. 
The most recent investment I made was the Lumia 920 and I cannot thank myself enough for waiting close to 3 months and not buying the iPhone 5. I just came back after a week-long trip from my home and had been to Cochin for a 3 day roadtrip. The Nokia Drive application was such a godsent - it kept giving bit-perfect directions for ALL the places we wanted to go. I was fairly acquainted with Ernakulam but not Cochin and the islands. But this device just blew me (and my friend who owns a GS2) away! The battery consumption was high when the GPS was active but the 195 Rs. Belkin Auto Charger from eBay I had sourced, helped in this regard. The phone was being constantly charged from the car's 12V DC receptacle. Vodafone 3G roaming was free so I kept checking and responding to my office mails often - even opened a bunch of spreadsheets and documents! I had taken my 4 year old Panasonic FZ18 cam as well but it was lying idle in my backpack - this device's cam was more than sufficient for all the clicks and a few 720p/1080p video captures. I am completely impressed with the device. Hope we get a few improvements with the upcoming Apollo Plus update.
The best investment has to the Mushkin 60 GB SSD still serving as the primary drive in my system. Although it has been outdated by faster drives in the market today, this drive is still faster than the average 7200 rpm drives including any WD Black or Raptor! Zero noise, small form factor, lessened heat dissipation and boots my system in seconds! The capacity is a tad too less as of today due to the space occupied by present gen. games but nonetheless the drive has lasted me this far and has seen me through 3 main system upgrades - a feat only the Seasonic M12D 850W power supply shares.
