Cell phones, desktop computers and digital cameras are the most common digital devices Americans own, according to a survey conducted by Pew Internet & American Life Project.

According to Pew, 73 percent of Americans have cell phones, while 68 percent and 55 percent own desktops and digital cameras, respectively. On the other hands, laptops, iPods or other MP3 players, and Blackberrys are relatively rarely owned – only 30 percent of respondents said that they have laptop computers, while merely 20 and 13 percent said they own iPod/MP3 players or a Blackberry.

In terms of digital activities, surfing online for no particular reason topped the list – over 62 percent of American online users have ever done it, and nearly 30 percent did it yesterday. However, downloading music, video or podcasts are much less popular among U.S. online users – only less than 30 percent said they have ever done it, while merely five percent said they downloaded these files yesterday, according to Pew Internet.
