What’s The Greatest Gadget Ever Created?

Well, that is sincerely not just my opinion. It is actually the result of a poll and a survey of Britain’s citizens. So it just certainly does go to say that it does not matter if man was able to create other gadgets like the washing machine or the remote control - the mobile phone just topped the charts.
4000 people were surveyed and as the top scorer, the mobile got around 20% of the whole number of votes. The survey was done by Foundem. One spokesman even for the group did express, “We were surprised by some of the results - we didn’t expect the vibrator to make the top 10.�

Hehe, I see vibrator on the list.
Was this list given to the people to check boxes or did they have to come up with their own answers?
