Perfect Gift: Gadgets For Guys
We all know how men love gadgets! David Gregg, senior editor of BehindTheBuy.com, has ideas for the "perfect gift" for the guy on your holiday list.
Digital Photo Accessories:
Share your photos without bulking up your wallet or carrying a separate device. Now you can bring your family photos everywhere you go just by wearing your watch. A sleek, stainless-steel case and black leather band give the digital picture watch a classic, comfortable style that fits any wardrobe. And the high-resolution 1.5-inch LCD screen displays all your pictures in crisp, clear, vivid color.
We've seen the photo frames that allow you to display your favorite family digital photographs. This year Kodak EZ Share wireless frames add Wi-Fi technology that takes photo sharing to the next level by wirelessly connecting to your computer and the Internet photo albums on Kodak Gallery and Flickr. Other features include MP3 music playback, even sports, news and weather delivered to the frames. Available in 8-inch or 10-inch sizes, the units quick-touch-border makes navigating easy. The internal memory of the W-series can store up to 4,000 images. There's even a SD memory card slot allowing you to add videos or send preloaded images to loved ones.
World's smallest digital color photo printer that uses no ink.
iPod Accessory
The iHome rotating alarm clock (model# iH41) is specifically designed to take advantage of the iPod touch & iPod nano's variable aspect (vertical or horizontal viewing option) screen. Place the iH41 on its side to watch widescreen video and the clock display will automatically adjust to match! Compatible with most docking iPods.
