Third. I got a Philishave 6890 (as far as I can tell, it's the same as one of the Norelco 7000 series - at least the same cutters fit it) in 2000, and it's still going strong. It was one of the first with a NiMH pack and it still gets 55 minutes runtime (it had about 65 new). Changed the cutters last year, but that's all - it's one of the washable ones so cleaning it is pretty much running it under a tap.

It'll also charge on almost ANYTHING - it has a mini wallwart type thing, and I'm pretty sure it says it'll take 12-240v AC or DC. Way cool.

Semi-interesting story - Steve Sanders (the empeg cofounder) promised us all a palm pilot when we'd shipped 1000(?) empegs; as most of us didn't fancy a palm, it got translated into "something electrical for about 100 quid". My shaver was my chosen electrical item
