I like my Nexus One. I am not quite ready to do this.

I absolutely love the concept of the hobbyist exploring ways to launch homemade satellites of their own and the data they can collect.
Such as MIT's low "beer-budget" $150 space cam that actually went 93,000 feet (nearly 18 miles) on a weather balloon and a styrafoam beer cooler.

And 4 spanish kids did nearly 20 miles up with a camera

Or the Copter Cam (camera attached to a toy copter).

I love innovation, I love technology, I love design, and I love putting all of these together.
Most of all, I love the creativeness that these people show in demonstrating their knack, intuition, and creativity side of things.
