Editorial Reviews:
The iPod touch has always been an amazing iPod. And with its groundbreaking technologies–including a Multi-Touch screen, the accelerometer, and 3D graphics–and access to hundreds of games, iPod touch puts an amazing gaming experience in the palm of your hand. It comes in 8 GB, 16 GB, and 32 GB models with new volume controls and a built-in speaker. Play hours of music. Create a Genius Playlist of songs that go great together. Watch a movie. Surf the web. View rich HTML email. Find your location and get directions with Google Maps. Browse YouTube videos. And shop the App Store for games and applications.
P.S. Of course, for something lightweight for running or treadmill or elliptical use, consider the ipod shuffle: see my Mother’s Day gift mom’s pink ipod shuffle , but maybe not in that pretty pink. For ipod shuffle ideas see Ipod Shuffle 3G.com online store . Other ideas are the watch that President Barack Obama wears or the battery juice-up (extra gadget batteries) items. Don’t forget Dad on Father’s Day, June 21st. It also is the first day of summer — appropriate for that sunshine in our lives — Dad.
Aloha, Dot
Father’s Day Idea #2: The Watch Obama Wears Daily
Dot’s Thot: “The most extraordinary thing in the world is an ordinary man and an ordinary woman and their ordinary children.” – G. K. Chesterton
No matter what our politics are, maybe this is the reason we are all charmed by the family events in The White House. It is so extraordinary to feel there is a normal family living there; we relate as family members do to their events — changing schools, getting a new dog,…..having Dad home for dinner(unlike when he was a Senator)…Aloha, Dot
Dot’s Deal: The special Dad in our lives can wear the same watch worn daily by President Barack Obama. It was featured in Women’s Wear Daily and The Chicago Tribune and is one of the hottest consumer products on the market. Check out the Jorg Gray 6500 Series by clicking on the image and find out more about The President and his watch.
