Powerful catalogue to display various types of products (From Fruits to Gadgets =).
Every product page includes:
* Comments
* Reviews (with Rich snippets starting from 1.2 version)
* Questions and Answers
With the help of jQuery, users/guests are able to add and reload comments/reviews/questions without the need to reload the entire page. And of course with nice Fading/Sliding effects.
Guests' comments/reviews/questions and answers are added unpublished, and site administrator receives an email when new comment/review/question is added.
In the backend, administrator is able to manage gadgets/comments/reviews/questions with great ease (editing/deleting/publishing).
Component has four front-end views:
* Catalogue
* One gadget page
* All comments page
* All reviews page
There are also two modules that display latest comments and reviews.
Component supports native Joomla 2.5 ACL, besides that it has been tested against XSS/CSRF/SQL Inj. threats.
anyGadgets supports native Joomla 2.5 autoupdate feature! So you will be notified each time new version comes out!
Russian and English language packs are included.

Version 1.1.0 - Date May 3, 2012

* Reports renamed to reviews
* Parameters in the Back-End added. Now you can choose to show or hide comments, reviews and Q&A
* You can override parameters for each gadget

This extension has great potential with the inclusion of questions and answers, reviews and comments. It works well as it is, I would just like to see some more options e.g. main image to be automatically resized, ability to change ´manufacturers´ to category, voting etc.
But hey, this is a free extension and provides great functionality as is!
