Why not take Apple as everybody loves their gadgets and know that they are among the best. Whether you are thinking of an IPod, why not a mouse or Apple magic track pad offering multi-touch gestures for the ones using a desktop. Yes maybe it’s not for all budgets and you have to buy several presents so let’s move on in case you are thinking of something else. Everybody loves taking pictures and keeping memories of the Christmas family dinner is a great idea by buying a digital or video camera. You will capture all the smiles and will be able to start that album you wanted every year. And while you are at it why not get a digital frame to have your own slideshow on your desk at the office. Your loves will surely bright up your day, and who says they can’t be with you anywhere you go?

For chatty friends consider giving them a phone or a car kit so they won’t stop talking in the car either. GPS systems are very popular for drivers and for the ones traveling a lot. In this way they will always know their way home and won’t get lost. This would make a great Christmas gadget for your driving friends. And if you want to get a new gadget to your kid for Christmas you can go with a new pair of headphones or speakers and the latest game and you will surely get their hearts. They will love you until the next year.



If you have the budget you can even go with an LCD TV, you can also get some discounts and get it cheaper. The MP3 player is one gadget that won’t lose its touch, or the iPod touch to have plenty of memory to store those albums and even the concerts. You can start playing family games with the Wii Console and do some exercise while you are at it. This is a new gadget and it would make a great gift for Christmas.



As you can see there are lots of possibilities so don’t panic. And lots of them can be found online so you don’t have to stand those endless lines at the store, or have to take the stress of the customers and the shoppers. It’s a great idea to get them online as long as you order them so they arrive until Christmas.

I know that Christmas is one holiday which is quite far away (or quite close in the past) but it is never too early or too late to discuss about some teenager Christmas electronic gifts. In fact, the first thing that comes to my mind when someone speaks about teenager Christmas electronic gifts is (for some strange reason) a gaming laptop. Maybe it’s because I see so many teenagers caught up in these new shooters with all sorts of crazy monsters and stuff. I know that they watch too many movies but who can blame them, maybe we would have done the same if we had so many things on TV when we were their age. Anyway, if you have a teenage boy, one gift you can never go wrong with is a gaming laptop.

If you are looking to buy the best gaming laptop at this time, that would have to be the Alienware m17x which is a bit too expensive so we have redirected our attention to a more affordable unit which we would like to describe to you as well. If that Alienware laptop is not something we can all afford, maybe the $1650 Asus G73JH-A1 sound like a better option.

The unit reviewed came with the 1.6 GHz Intel Core i7 720QM processor and no less than 8 GB of RAM. The total storage capacity of the hard drive is 500 GB… multiplied by 2. This means that you get 1 TB of free space which is going to make your kid happy because he doesn’t have to mess around with DVDs all the time in order to copy files and free some disk space. The graphics card found on this system is the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5870 that comes with 1 GB of video memory. If you are not sure what this means, let me explain: excellent gaming power! With 18.4 x 12.4 x 2.2 inches in dimensions and about 10 pounds in weight including the power adapter, this laptop id definitely not a portable one. The unit comes with the preinstalled 64 bit version of the Windows 7 Home Premium operating system.



The 17.3 inch display of this laptop comes in a native resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels and it is really something else. The selection of ports and connections is also very important because your boy is going to have to attach a lot of devices to his new laptop, like a super cool gaming mouse, headphones, his cell phone for transferring files, a printer and so forth.



The unit is host to 4 USB ports, one VGA out, one HDMI port, an Ethernet port, a multi format digital media card reader and the regular headphones out and microphone in jacks. HDMI port means that you kid can attach an external HDTV and watch cool HD movie playing from his included Blu-ray optical drive. He may be using the big living room TV but I think this is going to be a win-win situation here.

If you are passionate about reading books, a nice electronic gift for you can be the Illuminating Full Page Magnifier.

In fact, the Illuminating Full Page Magnifier is a LED-illuminated magnifier floor which offers a bright 10 inches wide view, enough for illuminating a full page.

For $30, the Judoon voice-changing helmet is another nice and funny electronic gift which needs your attention. If you are a Dr. Who fan, you probably want to have a gadget like this. Being made of plastic, this helmet has a somehow strange design. Wearing this helmet you will be able to speak exactly like the Judoon law-abiding officer from the Dr. Who movie. Even if you will look like a dork when you are wearing this helmet, the kids will love laughing about you. Anyway, being a gadget designed for fun, this Judoon voice-changing helmet runs with 4 AA batteries which will guarantee a battery life of 1 hour. So, if you want to have more fun, IT is recommended to have a bunch of additional batteries in handy.

When we speak about new electronic gifts we can’t miss the new “Roborior”, the perfect guard dog for your house. Looking like a SCI-FI art piece, the “Roborior” is a protection robot designed by Paul White, a British artist. Released in December of 2005 in Japan with a price of $2700, this electronic gadget will protect your home when you are away and also will give you a nice conversation piece. This decorative system is available in purple, orange or blue colors.

So, how it can protect your house? Well, being equipped with a digital camera, videophone capability and infrared sensors it is able to notify you anytime it detects intruders in your house. It can connect to the owner’s mobile phone and relay video taken by the camera. If you want, you can also control it to go backward, forward, left or right thanks to an easy to use remote-control. Not only that, but you can connect it to your TV and get a good look at your caller’s face right on the screen int he living room. It sound like great concept and i would really love to get one for myself, but with a price tag of $2700, i think i shall redirect my attention to a fancy gaming laptop instead of buying a robot.

When it comes to top electronic gifts, I think nothing can beat giving out a Nintendo Wii. This is one of the ultimate gadgets in terms of entertainment which both men and women all around the world love.

Even if the Nintendo Wii is something every man or kid craves for, this is one of those top electronic gifts that a lot of people can afford wince its price on Amazon is only $199. We could have written about more top electronic gifts, but the truth is that the Nintendo Wii deserves its very own article.  Even if the Nintendo Wii looks like a small box, it can offer plenty of power. The Wii has 512 MB of internal memory and it also comes with 2 USB ports plus an SD memory slot which allows the memory’s expansion. The “brain” of this console is a processing chip which was developed with the help of IBM and another video chipset developed with the help of ATI. Talk about quality material…

The Nintendo Wii console comes with an included remote control which has accelerometers inside and it controls and measure movements is all directions and at different speeds. For example, if you wish to play a tennis or a golf game, the remote control can be used as a racket or a gold club as you swing it. For people that are passionate about racing games, the remote control can act as a steering wheel. The system will allow a number of 4 maximum controllers to be connected at the same time. At first we thought this was a device mainly dedicated to men. But certain games and entertaining activities have now been developed for women as well. Not only is the Nintendo Wii made for gaming, but it offers information and other kinds of entertainment as well. Some of the channels which are available also include the forecast channel (meaning that your Wii is going to automatically give you updates on the weather), the news channel (the Wii can be configured so that it provides you with the latest news updates which are divided into easy categories), the photo channel (you can now see all your digital photos on TV by simply inserting an SD card into the special slot located on the Wii console) or the virtual console (which shows every virtual console which you may have downloaded from the Wii Shop Channel in a special menu where you can select any game and play it any time you like).



When you purchase the Nintendo Wii, you will receive, along with the game console, one remote control together with the Wii Remote Jacket, one Nunchuk controller, a sensor bar plus a power cord, the stand, the standard composite cable and the Wii Sports. The Wii Sports is a pack of sports games which will provide fun for the entire family. Thanks to the included remote control, it will be like you were actually inside the game and you get to pitch or serve.
