10 gifts till Christmas
Geeks are the easiest people to buy for but if you’re looking for some stocking stuffers here’s a quick ten.
The Kodak Zi8
Boasting full 1080p and image stabilization this tops my list not because of those features but because you can plug in an external microphone. ($180.00)
Nike+
Since Nov. 6 I have been on a tear to lose weight. My pastor challenged me and the winner got a steak dinner. The contest was until the day before Thanksgiving and I lost by one freakin pound!! But, I knew I was in it for the long haul. Since Nov. 6 I have lost 24 lbs. and I have 39 to go. I owe it all to Nike+. Mixing tech and working out was just what I needed.
It works with all iPod Nano’s (3rd Gen. and newer) iPod Touch and iPhone 3GS (only).
If you don’t have an iPod no worries, check out the SportBand.
So we have some options:
- Nike+ Sports Kit $30.00 ( iPodNano 3rd gen and up, iPod Touch)
- Nike+sensor $20.00 (as replacement or for iPhone 3GS
- SportBand $60.00 (No iPod needed)
a320 Pocket Retro Game Emulater
The Pocket Retro Game Emulator looks a bit like the GameBoy Micro but that’s where the similarities end. Load on NES, SNES, GBA, Sega Genesis, or Neo Geo roms and play your old favorites in the palm of your hand. With 4GB of built-in storage and a mini SD slot for expansion you can bring every single game from the best classic consoles with you. Of course in typical all encompassing gadget style you can also play movie files, audio files, use the built-in FM radio, view jpg images, Read E-books, do voice recording etc…
I have this thing it rocks. That is all. $99.00
