Tech gadgets come and go. Some succeed, most fail. Most failures disappear without a trace, while others are so awful that we can't seem to forget them. And some failures set the stage for future innovations.
This list of the 10 most epic tech-gadget failures is by nature subjective. Some of these epic fails just weren't yet ready for prime time, whether due to poor implementation or because the public wasn't fully aware of their usefulness. Others were simply absurd, and no amount of further development or customer preparation would have saved them. You can decide for yourself which category these no-longer-with us devices and technologies fit into. Just be warned that the list veers decidedly toward the absurd as it approaches Number 10.
