Well, obviously some amount of time has to go by with any type of device. There are already collectors of early plasma TV sets. Hmm, maybe 10 years is a minimum, and there have to be definite general changes in that time period, for me to think of anything having "early" (and therefore "vintage"
) versions. Any HDTV set or tuner from the 20th century, I would enjoy calling an "antique" at this point, just for fun as noted above. I think my oldest HD tuner is from 2000, though. I know that is when I bought my first one, but I do not have that one anymore.
The original-style Toyota Priuses are over ten years old now, but likely not being "collected", yet. They WILL be, though. That, I would take to the bank.
