If you’ve read The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (or either of its sequels), you’re probably aware of the fact that its characters have a striking and awesome penchant for gadgets. The thing is, those gadgets are from… 2002. While reading through the books, we took the chance to jot down all that name dropped gear, and what we’ve got here’s both a list of that gear and a walk down memory lane. Author Stieg Larsson (who was the first writer to sell one million Kindle e-books) often gives out actual lists of specs, which we find to be pretty endearing, but where he’s left anything to the imagination we’ve tried to use context clues to fill in the gaps.

There are some mild spoilers below, so if you plan on reading the books and don’t want to know what kind of gadgets await you, then beware. Otherwise, join us, won’t you?
