Dads and Grads
Yo, Dad's and Grads, you're up! Here's what I'm thinking you may like!
Sony iPhone Speaker Dock/Clock Radio
If the Dad or grad has and iPhone then this is a great idea for them . This
is the first and only iPhone-compatible speaker system/clock radio. Sony has
done a great job with the design of this baby and the sound is pretty
boomin'. You've also got a remote, a nice display, 5 programmable radio
station buttons and a big snoooooze bar. You can connect your
iPhone and iPod to the clock radio or any other digital music player
(like a Walkman) to access all of your music. And it's affordable too
– only $100 for this gift.
Next, a great (and free) gift for grads that want to stay in touch and stay connected to family and friends, no matter how near or far they may be. It's a free download called Skype that allows you to make and receive free voice and high quality video calls to other Skype users (meaning you can hear and see them.) The best part is that it's so clear it's like they are sitting right next to you, so your gift can be spending time with someone who is far away . With Skype you can also call landlines and cell phones for pennies on the dollar as well as establish a phone number in your area code to receive calls!
And what Dad isn't an Indy Fan? The new movie has mine talking all about the earlier movies so I recently scored him the new special edition Indiana Jones DVDs– Raiders of the Lost Ark, Temple of Doom and Last Crusade through the 3 disc set. These are great gifts for Dad that are even a treat for the whole family. These DVDs have been restored and remastered and now include a special introduction by Steven Spielberg and George Lucas. You can either buy your Dad's favorite one or all three of them together in the box set.
And believe it or not, with all the
excitement over the new movie, sales of Indiana Jones merchandise have
risen more than 100% in the last month on eBay alone! Fedoras and Bull
whips are hot sellers and there's really some amazing price points I'm
seeing.
Fujifilm Finepix Z100
One more gift idea for the Dad
or Grad is the new Finepix Z100fd camera from Fujifilm. it looks
pretty cool and is loaded with a number of features that I've
never seen on a camera before. Check it out, you can see actual picture examples of what the
different shooting modes are for, not just the little drawing of the
person running or the moon shinning. Another rad feature is a slide
show mode that actually plays a nice little tune for ya while you're showing off the pix. Want more?
It has a 5X optical zoom lens, face detection technology and an
"auction" mode that makes posting your goods online super easy and
fancy. They come in 4 great colors and are priced under $200. What are you getting your Dad or Grad?
