Article Quote:

According to a new study from the Consumer Electronics Association 58 percent of women would prefer to own a HDTV set than a 1-carat diamond ring; 64 percent would rather have a digital camera than a pair of half-carat diamond stud earrings. "Female consumers spend approximately $55 billion each year on consumer technology products," said Sean Wargo, director of industry analysis for CEA. "That's nearly half of the total consumer electronics market. And with these survey results showing a significant portion of women saying they are now more confident in purchasing electronics, we can only expect their collective buying power to increase as well."
