By It’s Cyber Monday and that means millions of people will be scouring the web for the best deals of the year. In honor of today’s legendary status, we’re continuing our 31-Day Holidroid Giveaway with our biggest contest yet, including a Kindle Fire, Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus, Jawbone JAMBOX and a whole lot more.
How can you win?
Simply visit Amazon.com and link us to one of your favorite gift giving ideas of the year in the contest! It’ll make reading the comments fun and helpful for today’s holiday shoppers.
There are a few more details… read on for all of them. For now, let’s discuss what’s up for grabs in our Cyber Mania Monday giveaway:
Amazon Kindle Fire
The Kindle Fire could be this holiday’s hottest product: at only $199 it’s not only one of the most affordable Android tablets, it’s also one of the best. That’s a killer combination. With a beautiful UI, great battery life, carefully curated apps/games, and an amazing array of media options thanks to Amazon’s Digital Content Ecosystem… the Kindle Fire is a sure win. Good luck winning one in our contest, but at only $199 it’s probably worth buying one just in case!
Galaxy Nexus
HUGE props to Nikolay Ananiev, the developer of an app called Tiny Flashlight + LED, who donated 10 Samsung Galaxy Nexus for giveaway. His app has OVER 10 MILLION downloads and Nikolay contacted us asking for ways he could give back to the community as a way to say “thanks”. I’d say this is a success – gotta love that Android community spirit! Not to mention, Tiny Flashlight + LED is hands-down the best Flashlight app for Android. Download Tiny Flashlight, give it 5-stars of awesomeness, and check out Nikolay’s other great apps/games as well: Bebbled and Tiny Compass.
Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus
Everyone seems to be craving Samsung Android devices these days, and for good reason. Samsung makes some of the best hardware out there, coupled with great software integration, and the Galaxy Nexus (above) and Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus are two great examples of Samsung’s industry leading products. These devices were sponsored directly by Samsung, thanking our readers and forum members for their excitement, interest, and support over the past year. With a 7-inch screen, 1.2GHz dual core processor, 1GB RAM, MicroSD slot, camera that records in 720p HD, and screen that displays in 1080p HD, the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus is a high end alternative to the Kindle Fire… and you can win BOTH in our contest!
JAMBOX
Ever wanted a small, portable speaker that plays music LOUD and CLEAR and isn’t a pain to setup? Let me introduce you to the Jawbone JAMBOX speaker. This bad boy packs a powerful bunch an extremely small frame, easily connects to your Android device via Bluetooth, and is an absolute pleasure to use. Bluetooth means you can stream not only music, but also games, apps, phone conversations, movies, and any other audio playing on your device! It also means no cords! Put it on your desk. Carry it to the kitchen. Bring it to the basketball court. Take it to your friend’s party. The Jawbone JAMBOX is a music lover’s dream device.
Isotoner SmarTouch Gloves
Every single holiday season these SmarTouch smartphone gloves are consistently one of my favorite gift giving items. They eloquently solve one of the most fundamental problems a tech lover faces: using your device in cold weather. Wearing gloves usually prevents your touchscreen from working: take your phone out, take your glove off, use your phone, hand gets gold, shove phone in pocket, rush to get glove on. NO MORE! Isotoner’s SmarTouch gloves, designed in my colors and sizes for both men and women, has technology that passes the electrons your body gives off, through the gloves, onto the capacitive screen and allowing it to work. VOILA! Seriously. It works. Trust me. Try it… and you’ll love them forever.
Seidio $30 Voucher
With so much smartphone use comes battery drain. Thankfully, Seidio makes some awesome extended batteries that fit many smartphones, allowing you to get longer battery life with the same device. No more toting around a charger everywhere you go: just snag a Seidio and call it a day! Seidio also makes cases, holsters, and other great accessories for your smartphones. Check them all out here.
Andy Robot T-Shirts
True Android enthusiasts and tech lovers enjoy expressing their Android attitude and there is no better way to do so then with an Android Robot T-Shirt from the brilliant folks at iSteamAndy. They’ve created a series of artistic, creative Android Robot themed T-shirts with fun, rich imagery. They sell like hotcakes and have limited production runs so get each design while you still can. Some of their top designs (and ones we’re giving away) include: Dark Night Andy, iSteam Andy, Flying Andy, Exploded Andy, Andy Verus, and Unstoppable Andy.

The cuisinart immersion blender is a great gift if you know someone who loves to cook. It makes different soups and smoothies so much easier to make! http://www.amazon.com/Cuisinart-CSB-76BC-SmartStick-200-Watt-Immersion/dp/B000EGA6QI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1322487412&sr=8-1

Want to play some multiplayer? Just tether it to your android smartphone for wireless connectivity. Best of all, it is backwards compatible with select PSP titles.

As a Walking Dead on AMC fan, I think getting a sweet SOG Tomahawk with an impact spike for cracking zombie skulls would be a great gift idea in preparation for the always impending zombie apocalypse. And for only $36 what a deal!!
My gift idea for the tablet owner that has everything is the Akron Folding Tablet Stand. http://www.amazon.com/Arkon-Portable-Fold-Up-Playbook-IPM-TAB1/dp/B000CKVOOY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1322487461&sr=8-1
I have found this item to be an essential accessory for my tablet. And as you can see by the ratings, this is a must have item.

Everyone loves coffee…heck, everyone practically NEEDS coffee. You can brew single servings from the size of an espresso cup to a large travel mug and every cup brewed can be a completely different flavor or type of coffee using the K-Cup variety packs…it’s a fantastical caffeine dispersal device.

What better way to charge my Android powered Touchpad?
This is by far the best gift you can give any Android, or iPhone user. The AR.Drone Quadracopter, as for an explanation, do you really need one? Who doesn’t want a remote control airplane, that they can control with their phone.

This is a game my girlfriend made me play when we had just gotten together, I hadn’t ever played. It’s a neat game though, it really helps you learn about people. Whether you give it as a gift, or buy it to play on Christmas day to enjoy the time with your family, it’s a blast!

I know its not tech related but Mumm-Ra was one of the most awesome bad guys ever! And I’m sure most of the people who view this page grew up with the Thundercats (as I did myself) and have probably checked out the new series as well. This figure is very cool and shows how far the character has come in the last 25 years.

First of all, its a helicopter, that should be a cool enough gift for any kid or most guys. Secondly, it can be controlled by your android phone. Third, it is relatively cheap for anyone to buy. I can’t think of a more fun game for my phone than to fly an actual helicopter (unless I was riding in it at the time). I’m sure my nephews would love it but I may have to be selfish and just buy one for myself.
Is your friend spending money on new gadgets while his car is stuck in the 90s? Help him move to the 21st century with the MP3 player cassette adapter. Its the same one we used with CD Walkman. Yeah I remember those. Now use it for your internet radio (pick your favorite from the Android market.) Only $2.78 with free shipping!

someone bought us one for Christmas 2 years ago (not that specific one but the same price range), and we didnt know what to make of it at the time. in the time that we’ve had it, we’ve had to use it about 6 or 7 times. being from upstate NY, winters get very cold and we lose power more often than you’d think. this thing saved us on many occasions. it might not be the gift that everyone would want or need, but it’s probably one of the most practical, and im thankful every day that someone had the thought of us maybe needing it because we did!

Even with the Transformer Prime around the corner, the even cheaper Asus Transformer makes for a great holiday gift for anyone looking to get a tablet. It offers both a tablet and mini netbook experience. It is sharp looking, convenient, and still a very powerful tablet for the price.
Perfect for keeping all of your gadgets charged without having to have 2000 wires and adapter cables.

Unbelievable hi-fi sound for Android users: http://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/B005M1KO1C?tag=adapas-20
There is a Klipsch app for mapping what the button does. These headphones sound amazing and fit very well. Great noise isolation (passive noise canceling) for public transit riders, paired with a thumping low end.
Plus, FOR ANDROID. Nuff said.
I saw this in the back of a car windshield on campus, maybe a good gift for a PHANDROID when your on a tight budget: http://www.amazon.com/Angry-Birds-Plush-Helmet-Sound/dp/B004ROXRZ0/ref=sr_1_cc_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1322487961&sr=1-3-catcorr

Droid RAZR moisture-resistant armband.
This is a great gift because if you have a Droid RAZR, you can use it almost like the cool new Motorola exercise watch. It promotes healthiness and exercise (important right after Thanksgiving) and is a great way to give someone a head start on their probable new-years resolution. You should be able to take advantage of the Smart Actions on the RAZR and have an easy time keeping track of your exercise, all while protecting your precious new phone.
A bonsai tree is a wonderful gift. Caring for these trees are a great form of relaxation and stress relief. I plan on getting a few for the people in my life :)

Do you know someone like me, who tends to be slightly (or overly) addicted to their gadgets. I’m sure their significant others would love to go out for a meal with out the phone chiming in with text, email, or G+ notifications attempting to steal away the attention. If you know or are someone like this get the Phonkerchief for that significant other, you get brownie points for showing you want to hear their work story more than see if that notification was a new Phandroid contest post, and you can have a dinner temptation free.

How often have you spent excessive amounts of your valuable time trying to wring that *last* bit of toothpaste out of your tube?
No more!!! This tube squeezer makes getting your money’s worth out of that pesky toothpaste container unbelieveably easy, and you can ven say goodbye to that sneaky, backstabing arthitis!
“Squeeze It” would make an incredible gift for anyone, and at a mere 4 dollars and 70 cents for a pack of TWO… Can you afford to *not* buy this product for all of your loved ones? Can you really live with yourself, knowing you’ve deprivied them of such an incredible tool?

Nothing keeps your balls warmer this winter. Nothing is is worse than having cold balls in the spring.
I chose a nice bottle of Astro Glide because it has so many great uses:
1: You can give this gift to yourself so you can more easily pass the time until the Galaxy Nexus is available
2: It makes the perfect gift for any of your iPhone 4s toting friends. They will greatly appreciate you giving them the ability to stick their POS iPhone you know where every time Siri F’s up.
3: Do I really need to list more uses?

I have something like this and it is absolutely my favorite way to carry hot drinks. The lid seals completely so I can throw it in a backpack without worrying and it keeps drinks insulated for hours. Also, the tea infuser is a nice touch.

I picked the Motorola s9 HD Bluetooth headphones because they are a great pair of Bluetooth headphones that have rich bass and a comfortable frame. Combine that with a stellar battery life and android/ipod/pc compatibility you are one step closer to being a cordless geek. I have gifted these to friends and recommended them for people I know that work out a lot because they are sweat proof as well.

Polar Insulated Water Bottles – simple; I believe you just can’t get enough of good, functional water bottles :).
I suggest this dual car AC + wall charger. http://amzn.com/B00563TSU4
You can count on everyone you know having a device that charges via USB, so this gift is extremely flexible. Just give them this with a spare usb cord that is compatible with their phone or whatever and they can just keep it all in the car for whenever they travel. Also, it has a neat and attractive fold-in design. And the frosting on the cake: only $15.
Edit: It also charges AA and 9V batteries!!!1!!1!

The perfect gift for a college student, great screen size for reading text ebooks, no more carrying those back breaker textbooks. With #G everywhere, there is no need to not be able to do work if there is no wifi around, just click wireless on and your set to go. Also ebooks are cheaper then textbooks so a lot of money saved there.

It’s a children’s picture book about a social justice issue. Teach your kids about others around the globe who don’t have clean water to drink. Inspire them to do something about it. AND, $5 from each Amazon sale goes to build clean water wells. How cool is that?
I picked this: http://www.amazon.com/Neon-Genesis-Evangelion-Platinum-Collection/dp/B000767QTA/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1322488157&sr=8-3
For any anime fan that loves all the interesting and genre-starting types of shows, Neon Genesis Evangelion is an absolute must-have. A mecha story with powerful themes and motifs all over, with excellent character analysis and development. Any anime fan, especially mecha genre lovers, should get this! I certainly want it…
For those who aren’t anime fans, don’t discount the series! It’s a very thought-provoking and detailed story. It’s an excellent sci-fi show showing post-apocalyptic Earth. The characters are as realistic as it can get, and they do actually grow throughout the series. It’s a very deep and moving show, and I highly recommend it to any sci-fi fan.

I love technology and android like everyone else but sometimes we all need to get away from it and just have some fun. I picked the Hot Wheels wall track for the little tykes this year. You can help build with them and put them on the wall, which I thought was cool. Its safe and who doesn’t like to play with cars.
i think this is a great gift to give since its the gift that keeps on giving every year, and brings smiles to peoples faces at their desk during hard days work, at least thats what the co-workers say that i have bought it for…

They make great stocking stuffers, too!
The mini hoop is a great gift for all ages. It looks like a real basketball goal and even has a breakaway rim! It would look really good in a cubicle or hanging off the door of a kids room.
Plus it would get people moving which is always a plus.

I don’t know about you, but generally after the holidays everyone I know is groaning and moaning about upset stomachs either due to eating something odd, or badly cooked.

http://www.amazon.com/ASUS-Transformer-TF101-B1-10-1-Inch-Tablet/dp/B004U78JT8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=
I didn’t care much for tablets because I didn’t see an everyday use for them. it does everything your phone does. But then I saw this, I is like a mini laptop and a cheap price. Some people only want to view a web page or check/send email. this is also great for school and a look of kids will want a cheap laptop for school and fun. This is a great toy and learning took.
If there was one thing I’d give for a gift idea? It’d be an ASUS Transformer prime.
That said, they don’t have it on there, so this is what I’d give:
ASUS Eee Slider. That thing is pretty beautiful and practical with a built in keyboard! Aside from the fact that it has the same features as the standard ASUS Transformer, the slide out keyboard goes a long way! :-)
http://www.amazon.com/ASUS-SL101-A1-WT-10-1-Inch-Tablet-Computer/dp/B005M0ISKC/ref=sr_1_10?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1322488073&sr=1-10Now, for the business-savvy tablet user that doesn’t want windows? I’d give a Lenovo Thinkpad Tablet. With the exception of the ASUS Transformer Prime, I’d say that this is my dream tablet, since it is WACOM enabled, as an area to house the stylus, and is all together a no non-sense tablet. Pretty swank.
http://www.amazon.com/Lenovo-ThinkPad-183827U-Android-Tablet/dp/B005F0JLXW/ref=sr_1_6?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1322488185&sr=1-6I'd also buy a stylus (and if it comes with one, we’ll consider it a spare!)http://www.amazon.com/Lenovo-0A33887-Thinkpad-Tablet-Pen/dp/B005HTZO6O/ref=pd_sim_e_1Now, if it’s a kid and they seem to have the ability to not break it on the first sitting? I’d likely aim to pass them an Acer Iconia A500. The reason is because the tablet is going down in price, and it has enough specs to where I can buy them a few games on the marketplace to keep them happy. I know this, because this is what I do to keep my niece happy.

You can give any amount up to two grand, and if you’re not sure about what to buy them, you can just give them the card and have them go to town! From music to books to doo-dads to gadgets, the Amazon Gift Card is (in my opinion) the best gift I’d give to someone, and that’s exactly what I’m giving my girlfriend this Christmas (barring winning this contest, of course!)

Roku 2 HD – It’s cheaper than 1 month of cable. For another $10 you can get 1080p.

I think this is a great gift idea, because it’ll make the receiver undoubtedly laugh, and also solves the age old problem of using the toilet in the dark! Or when you’re camping…or when you have a power cut…the possibilities for practicality are endless! And it’s just a great gift to make people smile :)

This is the Logitech Wireless Solar Keyboard K750.
I purchased this in the summer after my last keyboard died. The thing is fantastic! Barely needs any light. My meter is always at 100% charged. The chicklet style keys have a great feel and the keyboard is very quiet. It is also super thin.
Never replace batteries again :)
I did a little bit of research on tablets and this one seems to be ranked fairly high, especially for an android tab, which I’d personally prefer. It also doubles as a touch screen laptop with the additional purchase of the keyboard docking station. Best Buy had an awesome Black Friday sale on this one and I went to get it for my girlfriend but it was all sold out already! Still contemplating purchase… http://www.amazon.com/Transformer-TF101-A1-10-1-Inch-Tablet-Separately/dp/B004U78J1G/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1322488082&sr=1-1

Eating out and don’t feel like watching Fox News or the big game? No problem; just turn it off! Watch as the employees scramble about like confused rats in a cage where their TV keeps turning off. I may not be great with metaphors, but you’ll be great and stealthily changing the channel with this device.

Seems like the best speaker bar/sub combo for the money right now. This is perfect for most living rooms and it’s a lot more convenient and practical than running wires all over your room for a traditional 5/7.1 surround sound system. The simulated surround really does trick you into thinking the sound is coming from behind you, so it’s every bit effective as a 5/7 speaker setup too.
This is almost a requirement for a lot of the super thin LED TVs since it’s impossible to put decent speakers into the TV itself due to it being too thin/compact inside the bezel.

The InfiniTV 4 is a must-have for anyone with an HTPC (or wanting to build one). You get a CableCARD QUAD-tuner, with SDV compatibility, and you get to stick it to the cable companies who try to charge you for their crappy DVR systems.
With this and the incredible benefits of an Amazon Prime membership, you’ll never need to pay the ridiculous cable company prices for your television shows again!
After thorough deliberation, I realized that the best gift for anyone would have to be an Amazon Prime Membership (http://www.amazon.com/gp/prime?ie=UTF8&ref_=sr_tc_sc_2_0&qid=1322496167&sr=8-2-tc). This is the type of gift that truly keeps on giving. The recipient will have access to thousands of videos on demand that he or she can watch on their computer, Google TV, or Kindle Fire. Additionally, they will be able to borrow books from the Kindle Lending Library as well as choose from thousands of other titles to download instantly. Lastly, and maybe most importantly they will have access to FREE 2-Day shipping plus next-day delivery for only $3.99 so if they really wanted that Transformer Prime they can get it ASAP!
Thanks Phandroid!

I personally LOVE these and how easy they are to set-up and use, and would buy them for all my friends that lack a storage expansion option.
If Amazon carried it, I would also recommend AirStash, another portable Wi-Drive that uses microSD cards provided by you for the storage. Either way, you can’t go wrong buying someone extra storage for their mobile device, especially one that will fit in their pocket.

Its not tech related, but i find that this is a really good book for teens especially young girls lol + the fact that its not a trilogy makes it a great read
I used this Cuisinart Hand Blender for the first time to help with Thanksgiving dinner. Used it to blend mashed potatoes and to make gravy. Have to give it a try making M a r g a r i t a s ! ! ! Awesome little blender!

I actually bought this gift for a friend of mine. I don’t have a lot of money, the recession is pretty hard. So, I was / am doing Christmas ‘on the cheap’ this year.
My friend has a green thumb and loves hot food. These are easily a no-brainer for someone with that mindset. I actually got the three-pack. Plus? It’s an Amazon Prime item, and free / fast shipping? Is /never/ a bad thing.
I can’t say as I’ll be partaking in my friends obsession with hot foods especially in this case. However, I will enjoy watching them try to ‘act tough’ and eat one of these buggers (Hey Christmas is about enjoying the gift giving experience as well as the gifts you get right?)

The perfect Christmas gift. This will allow anyone who loses power due to snow storms or other events to still have enough power to access Phandroid. It would be ashame to miss out on one or more of the giveaway days because of a power outage.

While I think that ordinary holiday gifts, such as TVs, laptops, electronics,etc are great, why not have your friends/relatives enjoying something different this time ? Fitness is a really important factor that effects our lives in various ways,but it is oftenly neglected by the majority of us. We are afraid to pay the expensive gym membership, the time we have to go back and forth to the gym,… P90x has been around for sometimes and is proven to get us fit in a matter of days at our own designated place ! You just need some required equipment for the program, some space and some DEDICATION. Eating healthy, exercising regularly aren’t gonna do any harm but good to you and if you let fitness change you,it will do both physically and mentally ! You will experience things that you have never experienced before. You will be more energetic, more confident, and you will always feel like you can overcome any obstacle that blocks your way to success as soon as you finish the program. It might be hard at first, it might hurt, but in the end it’s all well worth it ! Give it a try, change yourself, and be a new you for 2012 :)
Thanks for reading and have a fantastic day everyone !

Not only does it get you away from the ever-growing monster that is technology, but it teaches you valuable fundamentals about life itself!

The official code of conduct for ‘Bros’ published for the first time ever. By upholding the words of this sacred document, any ‘dude’ can learn to reach ‘Bro-dom’. ‘Bros’ spanning all continents can put aside their differences to strengthen bonds in the name of brotherhood. At that point, we

challenges our society encounters…getting laid.

Viewsonic PJD6531 Projector
MSRP Price of $1,059.00
Sale Price of $589.00
With all the deals on HDTVs today it’s easy to forget about other home theater options. Some advantages of projectors over HDTVs are portability (try lugging a 40+ inch tv into your dorm room) and a large screen size (44 to 275 inches!). It is also 3D capable and great for gaming in 3D on a 200+ inch screen!
This Viewsonic Projector is 44% off and is a great bargain for the price.

These are a great deal. They feel really comfortable in your ear, keep out background noise, and have the most accurate recreation of the music for the money. They are also about 10 dollars cheaper than usual. I think I might get another pair, in case the maintenance crew at work vacuums them up again!

One of these would be awesome for my 14 month old daughter. She loves music, and she’d be able to just pick this up and run off with it while I’m playing for favorite songs via my phone. (see what I did there, guys? hint hint)

Ah, promoting laziness. Love this thing. Bluetooth A2DP and call support. Your phone will connect to this as soon as it turns on and it will allow you to show off in front of your friends and play music from your phone with no wires needed and also allows you to hear calls through your car stereo (if you want though, awkward when you are blasting music with your windows down and you come to a stop and you get a call and have a really loud conversation). Great for choosing your favorite songs to dance to while filling up with that overpriced black gold or while washing your car, saves your back.
Transmits over FM or also has a 3.5mm output (also a separate input 3.5mm is included but I think everyone who is reading this has a phone with bluetooth!). Has a USB charging port because our phones suck power like tornadoes suck cows at a dairy farm. You can also pause/advance/backtrack your music using built in controls. Allows you to answer calls and end them and has a quick dial feature as well.
WARNING: Turn your car speaker volume down before allowing your phone to connect via bluetooth. It will beep and you WILL piss yourself from the loudness. Great to scare people in your car if you remember about it though (but you probably won’t, trust me).

For the first time my grandparents ate to old to travel or to host christmas this year. So it would be really awesome for them to still be able to be a part of the holidays via webcam. It would mean the world to them to see their great grand kids open their presents.
Syma S107 Remote Controlled Helicopter
She’s got auto stabilizing rotors and a metal frame, blowing away the competition. This baby is made of metal! no cheap plastic junk, and it’s so much fun to fly. Perfect gift for geeks of All Ages, and the price is just right, under $30. You should think about getting one right now.

Family fun! Kids will enjoy it, adults can remind themselves not to take themselves seriously. It can be used for entertainment, exercise, or just laying outside in the sun during the summer. Alternatively, bring a lady friend over, jump around together, and enjoy the jiggling that happens in the right places. Or if you’re lucky, you can find an animal jumping around on it, record it on camera, post it on youtube, get millions of views, and find yourself with a bit more internet cred. Sweet.

Did you know that duct tape can turn any item of clothing into rainwear? That duct tape over a computer screen will keep your kids from surfing naughty sites on the Web? That a perfect solution for those easy-to-lose TV remotes is to duct tape them to your arm? (Not only won’t you lose it, you’ll never have to relinquish control over it, either!) But can you also believe that Jim and Tim’s creative ideas for duct tape spawned not just one bestselling book, but three, plus a calendar? And now the ultimate collection?
With two-thirds of the material drawn from their previous books and calendars and one-third all-new, The Jumbo Duct Tape Book is pure nuttiness to the nth degree. The premise is right there, on page one: “One rule can get you through life. It if ain’t stuck and it’s supposed to be, duct tape it.” But of course it’s the intrepretation that counts-like duct taping the gas pedal for cruise control, or duct taping marbles to your pressure points for instant reflexology. And then there’s bending the rule-transforming sneakers into golf shoes by punching nails through duct tape and taping it to the soles, saving energy by taping all switches in the off position. Plus cosmetic dentistry (use white tape for the “The Mask” look, silver for the metal-mouth bad guy look), cell phone safety (tape phone to side of head while driving so hands stay on wheel), home decorating (use duct tape for easy drapery tie-backs). You can even convert the book to a “hard cover” by taping a piece of 1/4 inch sheet of plate steel to the front and back covers. It’ll last for years!
A great way to enter the exciting world of RC cars. Fast – 20+ MPH! Race ready! All sorts of accessories available including a lap counter. Buy two and challenge your teenager,wife, etc. to races. Its a lot safer than racing with real cars.

There are many, many headphones out there that claim to reproduce studio-quality sounds with jargon that attract audiophiles. However, most of people have little chance of experiencing them because of their ridiculous price mark at over $100, $200, or even close to $300. This is why I am recommending MeElectronics CC51P headphones. This headphone is a proven jaw-dropper, not only because of its performance and quality, but also because of its price being well under $100.
If you have a friend who is an audiophile and listens to music on a smartphone, like myself, this will probably be the most thoughtful gift while not crashing your wallet.

I’ve always wanted one of these, so I figured that an Android enthusiast would be as well. The ability to track and manage my workout, track my locations and visualize my route, listen to music, and have this awesome digital watch all function independently from my wrist is undoubtedly cool. Being able to connect the device to my phone and manage my calls and notifications with the touchscreen only enforces my fantasy of having the equivalent the tech of a spy, which I think all nerds dream of.

You can never go wrong with a video game! Games are meant to be played on the PC!! BF3 is by far the best game I’ve played so far, the graphics are amazing and this game will keep everyone entertained for hours! Trust me I know, I’ve lost many hours of sleep because of it! ;-)

A watch. Time is something we should all keep track of but somehow still manage to lose. I know we all have smartphones but sometimes it’s just easier to check your wrist. Giving someone a watch not only helps them keep time but also reminds them of the person who gave it.
It doesn’t have to be THAT watch, of course. I just picked that because it looked cool but the though still stands.

My brother-in-law and his girlfriend have been looking to get a new table for their home, but never were able to afford one. I believe that a gift like this could definitely put a smile on their faces for Christmas.

Let’s face it — we’ve all got a ton of electronics. Not only will this baby protect them from nasty surges, it’ll save YOU money by eliminating the slow drain when electronics are turned off. That’s right – it will sense when you’ve turned off your TV and then cut the power to some of the other outlets. That way, you can keep your cable box powered up so you don’t miss an important recording but cut the power to your surround sound system and DVD player when they’re not being used.

As one who has two little girls I find this item
intriguing. I like the fact that it’s
interactive for the kids and parents and I could see my daughters absolutely
loving this and dancing to it.
Simple, inexpensive yet priceless!
This is the ultimate TV experience (I have one myself and can say that confidently). The GoogleTV concept is the future of all internet-connected TVs. With Apple coming out with its own TV next year you can rest assured that they will have copied ideas from Google and Google will be able to launch its own lawsuit stampede on Apple.
This is also another way to be apart of the rapidly growing android community.

It doesn’t have as much juice as the Mophie power station, but it is smaller, cheaper and lighter, plus, most importantly, it has a built in cable so you can charge your micro-usb device without needing to bring a cable.

Ask yourself, have you ever met anyone who doesn’t love bacon? It’s probably close to the most perfect gift because it actually IS the most perfect food. It’s been known to send even the most committed vegetarian/vegan into a downward shame-meat spiral of salty, bacon-y bliss. And for even the most obsessed bacon-lover, who may already have an entire garage freezer stocked with bacon…it’s an unreturnable/unexchangeable gift. Imagine the person who would actually say, “Gee thanks, but I already have enough bacon, do you have a gift receipt?” You can’t do it, can you. Your bacon will run out, and probably soon, so any bacon gifted to you is a welcome gift and instant entry to the “Best Friend Club”.

It’s a conversation starter…
“Why yes officer that is a Foam Sword, and no I haven’t been drinking.”
It tells people that you’re a go getter and not afraid to wear Foam Weapons after Labor Day.
It also up’s your geek cred, so you won’t get pushed around by the IT guys at the office anymore.

Behold! The quest for the best stocking-stuffer gag-gift-that’s-actually-awesome-and-therefore-not-a-gag-gift-at-all is over. I received a tube of this stuff as a “joke” gift from my girlfriend a few months ago, and at first, I was totally offended. “Is she trying to say that my junk smells like a rancid bag of socks?” After thinking about it for a second, my stomach sank, cause I knew the answer: Yes, my friends, she was.
After the initial ‘I want to bury my head in lava’ moment passed, I popped open the tube and went to town on my netherregions, slathering the cream to-and-fro. And whoa; it actually worked. Hours passed, and no odor. I became a believer, and my lady no longer dreads me taking off my pants after a long day of work.
Seriously, I encourage anyone reading this to personally give it a go. And if you’re hard-pressed for a Secret Santa gift idea or something for one of your “Bros”, consider Fresh Balls as a fun alternative, out-of-left-field gift. At the very least, you’ll all get a good laugh when they open the present (then, your friends will go home with the cream and get their minds blown.)
Oh, and there are varieties available for women (Fresh Breasts) and ones available for a much more family friendly crowd called Fresh Feet. I can’t vouch for those, but I didn’t want to leave anyone out. :)

The Silvermark Butter Boat
It might not seem like much, but this is a truly life-changing item. Never have to deal with trying to spread hard, unyielding butter on toast that can’t hold up to the pressure you need to do so. With the butter boat your butter is perfectly soft and keeps without any issue of spoiling. Get one for yourself and the people you love. You’ll thank me and they’ll thank you!
A must have for everyone, especially for serious companies :)

I only wish that my father had met his grandson before he passed away.
I linked to the kindle versions because they would go nicely on a Kindle Fire :)
Merry Christmas all!

I just proposed to my girlfriend on 11/23 and we are set to wed in March. She is really thin and petite but strangely suffers from high blood pressure, even taking some pill for it. I think it’s a combination of stress and just poor eating choices. I’m really big on health so it kinda saddens me. I would get her this book so that we both can better learn to care for our health.
I know it’s not your typical tech gift but I really love her and care about her well-being greatly!

This might be a little outside the technology box but I have been able to change my life in the biggest ways by reading this book and changing my thoughts. Once you believe and feel the power of manifesting what you want you CAN get it. I started changing my thoughts in 2006 and have lived a happier, healthier and more prosperous life.
I had given this book to a close friend and she has helped cure herself of sleep apnea and other health related issues as well as turn her monetary growth around.

Get your loved one the gift of being able to knock down another blood thirsty undead without making a peep.

The winner of this contest should not balk at the price; remembering the MSRP of the prize package should help you sleep at night. For everyone else, just remember the age-old adage: you get what you pay for.

The Kindle Touch would be an awesome gift for this holiday season for anyone because they are affordable, beautiful, slim, easy to use, and most importantly, they grant the joy of reading in in an electronic device. What could be better?

For those of us nerds with a budding interest in astronomy, this should be a good starter scope. Small enough to (hopefully) not break the bank of the gift giver, yet big enough for the receiver to (hopefully) not need an upgrade for quite a while.
Or, for those of us nerds that like to (try to) build stuff, yet our wives never seem to let us get one:

She kept telling me no, but she finally gave in. Well, she used it all the time during the several months that she had it, and finally after realizing that it wasn’t worth the money that we spent on it, she sold it on Craigslist. Well, after I got my Xoom (which I think I got the day that she sold her iPad) she checked it out and said that if she did ever get another tablet that she would get a tablet that, for instance, lets you actually browse the entire internet, and not just mobile versions :)So, with all the being said, I would give someone an iPad 2 so that they could see for their self how overrated this thing is and thus get an Android tablet that is actually worth paying money for.

The Zephyr HXM is a bluetooth heart rate monitor that also has an accelerometer to record your speed. It is $99 and is well supported by a number of applications in the market. I use it with Sportstracker Pro to track my heart rate while I run.
It is the gift that really shows you care, it encourages your loved one to exercise and take care of their body. It allows them to track their progress as they become more fit.
It has an excellent battery life. The manufacturer claims 25 hours and I have never been able to run long enough to test that. It is extremely comfortable with a soft strap that detaches for washing.
It uses the bluetooth “Serial Port Profile” which means it works with any bluetooth device that supports SPP. I have used it with my Mac, my PC, my Nokia N900, and my android Atrix so this is not something you will have to throw away if you switch phones or even operating systems.
This is also a good excuse to flame your iPhone loving friends because it won’t work with iPhone. Apple is a little greedy and controlling and they don’t support SPP connected devices unless you fork over the big bucks to license their “made for iPhone” technology program. So give this to your iPhone carrying buddy and pretend ignorance. When he’s frustrated with it not working, you can swoop in with your Android and say “works for me!”.
What more could you ask for? A truly useful gift that shows you care and an opportunity to flame iPhone users.

Buy your loved one a Galaxy Nexus, but open the box and replace the phone with this. Wrap the box. Give your loved one the gift. Watch their face as they scream with excitement only to find this little bad boy in the box ;)
If you’re nice, you could actually give them the real phone…or you could keep it for yourself!
For anyone who loves music and gaming…this game actually teaches you to play an actual guitar, not mash colored buttons in a glorified Simon game. You can use your own guitar or purchase the version that has a guitar with it. I got this for my husband, but I may keep this one for myself m/

Zombies; 2012; Swine Flu; Mutating strains of the cold we used to know and love…well…knew how to handle at least. One way or another we humans are starting to realize we may not control our own destiny. I see a lot of suggestions to arm yourself with firearms and blades, but what about arming yourself with an even more dangerous weapon…KNOWLEDGE. How to Survive the End of the Wold as We Know It: Tactics, Techniques, and Technologies for Uncertain Times by James Wesley Rawles is a well thought out “How-To” for very real, very possible situations in our fragile society. From mental preparedness to livestock and supplies to investing and bartering with your fellow survivors, this book will prime you for whatever lies in store. Not to mention, with your new Kindle Fire you will have all of these techniques at your fingertips to brush up on just before the lights go out. Of course, it doesn’t hurt to have a really big gun on hand…just in case.

Belkin Bluetooth Music Receiver. I love this guy. Just pair it with your android phone/tablet and plug it into a high-quality set of computer speakers. There’s no noticeable loss in sound quality between Bluetooth and plugging the speakers into the headphone jack. It’s the best way I’ve found to listen to music in your home from an android device.

This Belkin Conserve Socket is a perfect gift for techies and non-techies, alike. It’s really inexpensive for the giver, and as for the recipient, it helps save them $$$ money
off of their electric bill and can make their home safer. You can plug any of your gadgets or appliances into it and set the socket on a timer, so it only uses energy for that designated time. A great “safety feature” of this device is it keeps your home safer by automatically shutting off applainces like irons or curling irons that can be dangerous if left unattended. True phandroids will also realize that this nifty little socket will also help to conserve battery life on your phone, since your phone won’t be continually “overcharged,” while left in a socket…and for $9.99, you can afford to give a few to the favorite person on your Holliday list!

Android tablet and Android smartphone has become popular to the market nowadays. I bet most gift ideas of people will come from either of this devices.

Users will enjoy both features of an Android smartphone and tablet. It is like hitting two birds with one stone.

We’re all fandroids and technology lovers here, so I think this one makes sense. Like all of the tech we love and most of the items up for grabs today, the Dyson Hot is beautifully designed, innovative, and practical. What better gift can you give, which can also keep you warm during the coming winter months? It may be a little pricey, but what new thing isn’t? People are buying unlocked Galaxy Nexus phones at $750 each.
Would love to surprise my wife with this on Christmas Day and have her wonder why the hell I got her a little Android toy . . . then shock her with a new Samsung Galaxy Nexus!!!

I don’t know how they’re going to read through all of these comments. Anyway, it appears Amazon doesn’t have what I like to give as a gift which is X10 Automation kits…because who doesn’t love home automation. And someone else already posted the Roomba (a great idea) so that you can sit and play with your new phone & tablet while the robots do the cleaning. And I thought posting a blu-ray of Waterworld could get me flamed off the comment board (even though it is one of my favorite movies and I think everyone should watch it and appreciate it). So I’ve settled on another, more practical gift. I know another post already posted solar chargers, but his gifts were over $200…here’s a more practical (and portable/affordable) solution to solar charging (which is very cool)…enjoy everyone!

I love these two series and I am really hoping for myself to get the double pack on Blu Ray. I own both of the DVD sets and have since upgraded TVs and to a Blu Ray Player. The acting, writing, production, etc is incredible and I cannot wait to see the battle scenes and everything else in full HD. I especially am looking forward to the scenes in wintry Bastogne with the silence and the white snow all around before the hellish shelling happens.

The Keurig B60 Special Edition coffee brewer
I love my wife and she loves coffee. Unfortunately, I don’t drink coffee and I hate mornings, so it’s hard for me to do the “husbandly” thing and wake her up with a hot cup in the morning (at 5AM I’m more likely to dump it on her head than serve it to her). But we gadget geeks are always thinking of ways to do everything with technology. So I did some searching and found this Keurig Coffee Brewer. I can set it for whatever time she wants to wake up, and a hot cup of java will be waiting for her in the morning. It even has a reusable filter accessory so she can still use her favorite coffee instead of those flavored cup things.
Happy wife, happy life! :)

Almost everyone who uses a computer runs into the ever aggravating storage space issue. Whether your grandparents are saving all those pictures of their grandchildren, or if your parents are looking for a way to store those old home videos. With one of these, they most likely won’t have to worry about how much space they have left on the computer’s hard drive. It’s not only a great size for 1TB for a great price, but it’s portable too 0_0.

Honestly, this is a win win. Even if its bad? its still pretty good.Plus, its thoughtful enough to be for both of you, rekindling that spark, and spicing things up in the process. And again, even if it sucks? You still got some.
What would compliment the Fire nicely is a bluetooth keyboard something like the following:

Also, with the Fire’s popularity, soon they will have an integrated case/keyboard something like this which is an excellent combination. Zagg makes a great case/keyboard but I haven’t seen anything yet for the Fire.

Garmin 405 Exercise watch, the perfect accessory for the fitness enthusiast with an Android device …
Any Android – Exercise folks out there? You will love this watch! It can track your mileage, your heart rate, speed, etc. Take it running, biking, hiking etc. Then sync it up with Garmin Connect, or Android friendly sites like RunKeeper or MapMyFitness! Not only is this a great watch, but this particular link is an incredible price. It is cheaper than you can buy the Garmin 305, the generation before the 405.

This sleek watch will help you meet your new year’s resolution’s and have fun doing it!

Because LEGO, like Android, is just oh-so-customizable. This is a fantastic LEGO set that a buddy of mine owns. It’s on my Christmas list, but I think I’d rather win today’s contest!
Also, I visited this page with LEGO immediately in mind, but I see that I’m not the only one with such ideas. Seems that there’s a connection between a love for Android and a love for modular toys ;)

Given the inevitable war with the undead, probably the most important gift you can give your friends, family and loved ones is this book. You would be remiss if you did not help them educate themselves and prepare for the impending zombie apocalypse.
To this end, the best gift you can give would have to be this book:

If nothing else, this book is the biggest cookbook collection I’ve seen. But it’s also really awesome, with a lot of the science behind cooking so that you learn and understand more about how to cook. It’s a perfect book for science nerds, tech geeks, foodies, and almost anyone else who loves to eat (which is everybody).
Honestly after driving around and having my phone sliding everywhere I have decided this is the perfect small gift for everyone who has a car and a phone without a phone dock. http://www.amazon.com/Talus-Highroad-Super-Grip-Gadget/dp/B00568YDAY/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1322494744&sr=8-6
It really holds anything in place (up to a certain degree of driving) and it is fairly cheap.

Not really in the festive mood of the holidays but definitely what the holidays are truly about, which is giving. You see my link is to DVD’s and books about surviving cancer. My best friend has cancer. He goes every Tuesday for Chemo treatments. We talk almost everyday. I know the hell he is going through. There is very little I can do but listen and offer my encouragement. But if I was fortunate enough to win these prizes I could give them to him. At the very least I can add a little joy to his life and help him with the boredom while he is getting his chemo treatments or while he is sitting home because he cannot work. No BS here. If I win (I would be willing to prove it) I would give the prizes to him. OK maybe I will keep the Galaxy Nexus lol just kidding. So I would use the holidays to bring a little joy to someone else who needs it more then me.
I like:

A gift of one year membership to Amazon Prime would be excellent for those who love to ship but don’t like to wait very long to receive their products. If you utilize the $3.99 overnight shipping twice, you cover the $79 cost.

I like to use this Face treatment that helps prevent and clear my razor bumps on my face. Almost every person that recommended this product has gotten back to me and wish they knew about it when they were teen or younger. Too me its the cure to Razor bumps and makes your face silky smooth. Hopefully my face is looking silky smooth when i’m using the that face unlock feature on the Galaxy Nexus. :)

Who couldn’t use a Micro SDHC card (or SD card, with included adapter) these days? Almost everyone has a phone, tablet, or even a computer – and most of us don’t have 32GB cards – maybe 8 or 16 GB at the most. This is perfect for anyone with a gadget addiction (like myself), and who needs more storage than their current card offers. This is a GREAT price as well – low enough that you can give it to anyone on your list without breaking your budget!

When you’re getting the latest and greatest digital phone and the manufacturer posts claim to the uber thinness that is the object of your desire (that and some ICS), hold them to that claim with these calipers. With accuracy to 1/1000th of an inch, you can be certain that your new Nexus is exactly the thickness it’s listed at, measure the bump of the LTE version, and gloat to your friend when you measure his RAZR and see that…well, at least you have ICS and an HD display!

The Lego Mindstorms NXT is a great gift for anyone that has an interest in technology with a focus in robotics. This sort of gift will challenge your mind and creativity, while giving you a greater understanding about how programming and hardware work hand in hand.

For the Android enthusiast in my life (my girl), I’d love to be able to get her a GNexus, who wouldn’t? But for fun, I’d start her off with a fun gift-basket which would include some creatively tricky Android fun, such as:
a – 10 pack of Astronaut ICE CREAM SANDWICHES (http://www.amazon.com/Astronaut-Ice-Cream-Sandwich-Packages/dp/B00005C2M3/ref=sr_1_1?s=grocery&ie=UTF8&qid=1322494710&sr=1-1)

This is by far the best game to play with family or a group of friends, and is on the cheap side! Perfect for those individuals who are really hard to shop for, or those who you simply don’t know too well :)
Soda Stream!
http://www.amazon.com/Sodastream-Fountain-Soda-Maker-Starter/dp/B001KYT6CS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1322495489&sr=8-1
I have one and would def recommend as a gift for ANYONE who loves soda water.
Just a warning….do. not. soda. stream. wine. I’m still finding it in the back ceiling of my kitchen three months later.
Only 4.4lbs, I have personally owned this vacuum for years! Great on all floors & carpets! No bags to change, just empty cup…love it! Price is right at $24.96 w/ free shipping :)

I know a lot of people like me could use something like this. It’s harder to lose a remote when you have just one instead of 3 or 4 to keep track of.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B004U52VPS/
Probably dozens of people have already posted about this, but if not: There is a real life Angry Birds game! Slingshot, birds, pigs and everything! Reasonably priced too, for those of us without much cash to throw around. Seems like a nice gift for an Android gamer.

Quick and easy for everyone to use, relatively low cost with high potential, and everyone takes pictures all the time!!! Endless memory and Direct Content to phones and tablets are great for even the every day users!
For those friends and family (like me) who must take their power sucking 4″+ Android devices with them while spending days in the back country (so they can keep up with phandroid of course):

This is a great gift for those that are kids at heart. Place one of these at work, school, home and watch as people go crazy trying to find where the noise is coming from. The amount of fun that can be had for such a small price is great.

http://www.amazon.com/Technivorm-Moccamaster-Coffee-Brewer-Thermo/dp/B002S4DI2S/ref=pd_sim_sbs_k_1
While it appears pricey at first, the value of absurdly great coffee cannot be overvalued. It is one of those feelings where once you’ve tried it, you might find it impossible to go back to any other standardly brewed coffee. And not only will it be a welcomed and generous gift for others, if your recipient happens to live in the same household, it’s a gift for yourself as well.
So what makes this coffee so astounding? Surely there are plenty of high priced, fancy coffee makers and much cheaper french presses, but none have matched the perfect control of Technivorm’s. They were the first to be certified by the Specialty Coffee Association of America and is currently one of only four machines to meet that category, and it also received the Seal of Approval from the European Coffee Brewing Centre. This machine brews coffee at the perfect temperature, with the perfect grind and filtration.
Before you’ve tried it, you may not think you need it. Once you have, you and your loved ones will swear by it.

Great deal! Look up your favorite bread or pastry recipe on your beloved Android phone and use this amazing mixer to produce culinary delights.
Warning: hold on tight to your phone, whether it be the Gorilla Glass on your new RAZR or the generic, no-name, who-knows-what-it-is “fortified glass” on your new Galaxy Nexus Prime Whatever They Call It, it just can’t compete with the power of this mixer.

With our increasing amount of gadgets and more mobile dependent culture, it is imperative to be able to charge our tablets, phones and accessories. With plenty of plugs, as well as USB charging. The Monster Outlets to Go with USB is a mandatory gift for anyone, techie, or otherwise.
I’m going to buy one myself after finding it, since it would come so handy when I go to coffee shops, or on trips.

Why you ask? Because why not take an easy approach to learning how to build more apps for the Android market that we all could use. I’ve always found the Dummies series to be pretty darn helpful.
And…it’s a Kindle version…which would play nicely on that Kindle Fire that I’ve been jonsin’ for!

For the travel adventurer in your life, this book makes a great gift! From 1964-1966, my father Carlos Caggiani traveled around the world on an old Indian Motorcycle. His adventure was undertaken with very little money and no technology to speak of. He suffered many hardships on that journey, including being shot at in Bolivia, a serious accident in Panama, extreme hunger, and more. Quite an amazing true story!

For those of you without children, who love spoiling your pets on the holidays, this is a great buy. I have a 130lbs. black & tan coonhound, and the big guy (Warren) used to have some rather serious seperation anxiety when I would leave the house. For those of you who have never heard and upset coonhound, it is not a pleasant sound, virtual the entire neighborhood would know when I left for work. I got him this thunder shirt a while back and he loves it, really has helped with the yowling when I leave the only problem know is he hates when I take it off him.

My gift idea is the one of truely giving. This coat costs $30 and is desperately needed by kids even in your own neighborhood. Buy it, donate it/give to a child you may know or have seen, walk away feeling truely good about yourself and know you are keeping the true spirit of the holidays alive with your selfless act! I know from experience this is the greatest gift to give…KINDNESS and WARMTH!!!
To all, have a joyful season and keep your chin up come the New Year!

TURN YOUR OLD BORING PHONE INTO A RACCOON…with http://www.amazon.com/Rocco-Portable-iPhone-Galaxy-Smartphones/dp/B005DHLKEA/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1322495747&sr=8-11cheap, fun and mostly importantly you will definitely use it while watching a movie on your device.

Very cold winter, and this is a perfect gift. Much like a bluetooth, this also has a microphone but is subzero. I believe this gift is great for anyone at any age. M/F from 8yrs and up. Only issue that is left is to make these bluetooth for cordless. Hopefully the users have the touch gloves to match and can also perform voice operations. No need to take off gloves to get phone out of pocket and such.

I think this is one of the best gifts. I used to read these as a kid and it used to me and my brother go crazy acting like detectives. Nothing better then giving a kid an imagination.

Great little gadget for all your charging needs. Plug in the wall, car charger or even charge with batteries if you lose power. Take it from me, after losing power for five days here in the northeast, that comes in really handy. Also great for charging two gadgets at the same time!
I looked through a few comments but not the entire 806, so if this already posted sorry:

It’s really hard to type well on smartphones and some tablets. This keyboard can also connect to a PC/Mac. The price is also pretty good ($30).

Since it’s the Holiday season we need to ALL watch this movie with our love ones! Give this DVD to people you love and watch it with them… If you prefer the Blue Ray version Amazon has it as well! Or you can watch it on your iPad, tablets, and toys with Amazon instant rental!
As much as i LOVE tech toys I think giving gadgets and toys will cause us to ignore other ppl during the holiday season. We get so INTO our new gadgets and toys and forget about others so this movie is THE best Holiday gift idea! I watch this movie at least once around the holiday season with people I Love!
If you haven’t seen it, WATCH IT! If you’ve seen it … don’t forget to watch it again during this holiday season! It will make you SO HAPPY!!!
Happy Holidays!

http://www.amazon.com/The-Hunger-Games-ebook/dp/B002MQYOFW/ref=pd_rhf_gw_shvl1
It’s not entirely tech related, unless you read it on your kindle, BUT it is a great read and a great gift idea for any age because it is always better to know the original content before the movie comes out. Plus, the series is one of the best and engaging ones ever written. For those times, we need to disengage from mindless games, we should always remember that books are one of the best alternatives for entertainment and imagination.
I wanted to point out that the Sony Blu Ray with Google TV is a steal right now! Get it for $159!!! You can’t beat that!!!!

(Notibly absent from the above list is any gimmicky crap from Beats by Dre, Skullcandy, or Bose.)
I’m personally mulling buying a pair of Beyerdynamic’s to replace my 7-year-old Senny 590’s, as well as a new headphone amp to go along with.
Amen to that. Currently using Grado sr60s and Etymotic ER4s’s here. The headphone market is so oversaturated with crap that it’s so hard to sift through all the pretty junk nowadays.
The Sony MDR-V6 is an identical set of headphones apart from MDR-V6s using a nickle plated connector instead of gold. Nickle is actually better in the long run; it will sometimes become oxidized where gold won’t, but its oxidation layer is scraped off upon plugging in. Gold plating on the other hand will wear thin over time. Again, apart from the connector, they’re identical in all but name. How much do you pay for the name? $84 versus $65. Don’t be a sap with the Sony MDR7506.

Getting my kids these cool little things. When I was growing up I would tie a string around a beetle and wave it in a circle above my head and eventually they would fly around in a circle as I hold the string. Pretty cool when you’re 8 growing up in a third world country. My kids crack up when I tell them that story. At least all they’ll need with these are batteries ;).

I purchased one of these and I have to say it is a very handy remote to have. I know it is quite pricey but if it is someone you care about then I would have to say this is a gift for them. Main thing was I got rid of all the remotes I had and now only use one. Very Easy to set up and it works even if you have the boxes in another room. 10/10 even if it is pricey.

superb system!! My uncle has one and when we go there on holidays we like to watch whatever game is playing (usually football) , and this may be cliche, but you definitely feel like your there. His HD tv helps with that too though. Great for anyone who wants to be immersed in a great movie, game, or even just listen to some great music.

This would be awesome for anybody, especially kids. I’m 24 and I’d still love this lol. It’s a remote controlled helicopter that is controlled through your smartphone(android, iphone, ipad) and it used augmented reality tech. So imagine having a dogfight either in your house or outside, you can see the score on the screen on your phone and the hit marker of the other helicopter. You can buy a protective bumper to put around the blades so that way you can use it in the house. I’m sold, are you?!
http://www.amazon.com/Lion-Four-Disc-Diamond-Blu-ray-Digital/dp/B004WDRT1Y/ref=cm_lmf_tit_4_rdssss0
Whoever the gift is for has probably already seen The Lion King and are just waiting to have it on something a little less ancient than their VHS copy. In comes the Diamond Edition with Blue-ray 3D, Blue-ray, DVD, and digital copy.
Also for the real Lion King fans you could check out the old Japanese anime, Kimba The White Lion, which definitely can be seen as ‘inspiring’ The Lion King on a few levels.

In Today’s down economy the gift of a wise investment is the new Cool/”It” gift. I can hardly imagine a sounder investment than purchasing this retired beanie baby. You only pay 3 bucks and the potential return on investment is infinite. In fact, I would stake my kids’ college education on it.
Oh wait – some crazy ladies in the 90’s DID. Eh – it’s better than the stock market.
Puma makes the coolest shoes on earth, period. Why not grab a pair called the EVO Ducati? I mean, not only does it bring to mind a bad-ass motorcycle, it also conjures up a reference to a great Android handset.

I am a big fan of White Elephant gift games at work. This awesome $9 snuggie and booklight gift would definitely make a perfect prize in the fun work Xmas celebration. Seems odd but deep down inside there’s are a lot of people who really want a snuggie and you will find people stealing this from each other throughout the game.

OrigAudio Rock-it Portable Vibration Speakers:
I originally saw them on the ABC show Shark Tank and was blown away by them. They are little devices that vibrate and when placed on literally anything, they turn it into a speaker. They are great little portable speakers that produce decent sound quality and work with anything with a 3.5 mm headphone jack. The simplicity and versatility makes it for a great gift for anyone. Seeing it in action does it more justice than words ever could. Check out the video uploaded by the company who makes them: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aH3fNl5jEp8

Superhero Starter Kit
Picked this one up for my little guy so he could create (and become) his own superhero. Not only is it a great way to ignite a child’s imagination, but it’s also a perfect introduction to the superhero literature genre (ahem; comics) and all of the rules, quirks, and knowledge nuggets one might encounter as they explore the world of superhero comics for the first time. It’s an inexpensive and fun complement to the “I Can Read” superhero books for toddlers and young readers.

Here is a gift that’s full of function, yet low in price. It’s one of those things everyone needs, but probably wouldn’t buy for themselves. Cast iron provides the best cooking surface for any food. It’s durable, energy efficient, and practically maintainance free. It has a variety of uses outside the kitchen as well. Use this pan to pound a nail; keep the papers on your desk tidy; euthanize tiny livestock. Keep it next to your bed and the convenient side handle makes it easy to grab and throw at unwanted intruders in the night (sorry Santa). It’s very unlikely that you’ll be giving your sweetheart a new car with a giant red bow on it- not this year anyway- so why not opt for the next best thing?

In terms of price versus durability there are very few boots or shoes that compare. It’s generally hard to shop for clothes for a guy there are very few who these wouldnt appeal to, and they’re much better looking than a pair of sneakers.

So now people can pay you directly instead of having to go through whatever other system is in place. For instance, hairdressers! I think there is a company out there that you can join where you only have to pay 1.7% instead of the national 6.whatever on each transaction! Also if you have a huge dinner party everyone can pay you instead of making your waiter swipe 8+ cards, ahhh it would be so much easier :D

2TB Western Digital personal cloud drive
This to me is one of the most important gifts you can give if someone will utilize it or if you can help them set it up. The most important reason this is a great gift is the ease of use for a computer backup. I have multiple family members who have lost their computer hard drive in the last couple of years and most were unable to recover the data without outrageous costs. I always talk to them about backing up this makes that much easier. The over the top feature is the fact that this is basically a ‘free’ cloud drive. Google Music gives you 20,000 free songs which is great but what about your other files. Pictures and documents have space on Google’s servers, but not enough for me to put everything up there. The chances I need access to any of them are slim so I see no reason to pay money to keep them on there. Using this NAS, I can access any files I want to from anywhere in the world for free. I also don’t have to worry about them being in the hands of some other company. In the days of cloud computing, I think this is the most invaluable item one can buy for the backup and access from anywhere features. The people I have set it up for say they absolutely love the system!

Ok – I’ll accept that I am being naughty and not nice. My children have wonderful grandparents (aka “the in-laws”) who live to please them, while at the same time affirming to them how cruel, uncool, and too strict we are as parents. Well, you know what they say about turn-about…
My children are begging for this ridiculous toy. To us, the uptight parents, this is a 6-foot x 3.5 foot airborne disaster waiting to destroy our home. However, I’m sure my in-laws would find a 6-foot remote-controlled shark an appropriate and understandable request for any child. Well, when we celebrate Christmas at their home this year, I think this toy should be under the tree at their home. We could ship it to their home so our children can be surprised, and we’ll bring the helium to fill it. Once it is inflated at their home, we couldn’t possible fit it in our car to take home! After all, we brought the small car not realizing this ;) No need to worry though – It will all be fine as we will make extra efforts to have the children spend as much time as possible at the grandparents’ home over Christmas break – that way they can play with this lots. I’m hopeful the flying shark won’t break any of THEIR possessions – you know, antiques, china, etc., but I’m sure they will understand that antique carnage is the price to pay to show up your too stuffy daughter-in-law. Right? This will once and for all resolve that the grandparents are definitely cooler than Mom and Dad. And you know what – I’ll be ok with that!!

This gift is a unique gift in my opinion, but since 99% of
my friends and family have either an iPad or other type of tablet, I think it
would be quite fitting. If I win a tablet during this competition, I will defiantly
be gifting one of these to my wife since I know she will be using it in bed
Every night, lol. It’s a bit on the higher priced end of the gift spectrum, but
if you love your family like I do, it’s worth every penny and I know for a fact
that whoever gets it would love it and not try to return it… :)

I’m going a slightly different route. The link I provided isn’t a link to any specific item. It’s a link to clothing for kids. In keeping with the spirit of the holidays, and the spirit of giving, it would be nice if everyone would click the link above and pick an item (a coat for the cold winter months, perhaps) to give to a kid in need.
Trust me, I get caught up in all of the fun new “toys” out there (which is why I’m all over this contest!). I want the new $300 phones and $400 tablets just as much as the next tech geek. However, I would like to take this opportunity to ask people to think about clicking the link above and buying something for someone less fortunate. Hard to imagine that the excitement I get over a new phone pales in comparison to the excitement someone else gets over a new coat to keep them warm. Let’s spread some cheer, eh? Happy Holidays, everyone.

I know what you might be thinking, “nobody likes getting a gift that isn’t actually for them,” but that is the beauty of the idea. Nobody (with a soul) will show even the slightest amount of disappointment for fear of looking like a terrible person.
Not to mention, at the end of the day, you did a good thing, and Toys For Tots gets a shiny new tricycle.

For anyone who owns a laptop I cannot recommend these mini surge protectors highly enough. As a college student all of my schoolwork is done on a computer and these little guys give me peace of mind whenever I have to plug into a wall outlet (especially in some of the older buildings that just scream faulty electrical work). Priced at less than $10 it is an easy and useful gift.

It can be useful in the middle of the night when you’re trying to get that glass of water to wash down that midnight snack. It can also just be great for children to know the water temperature.

I have the old school George Foreman grill (GFG) with the non removable plates. If you used one before you know its a bitch to clean. Holding it over the sink trying to scrub away the nastiness on the top and bottom. A GFG with removable plates is a godsend and something I need to have in my family’s kitchen!
Perfect stocking stuffer! It’s a solar powered USB charger for under $30. I can see this being great for camping, or while out snowboarding, or just any time you’re away from electricity for some time.

This is a really great conversation starter. They ask where you got such a rarity; you respond by saying that you found a great little organic store in town that still has some left. You give them the address, but when they arrive they discover themselves to be in a very dangerous part of town. When they do not return, you smile menacingly. That will teach them to question you.

Ummm….Easy. Kindle Fire. It’s what everyone in my house wants for the non-denominational winter holiday season
One of the first Christmas presents I remember as a child was a microscope kit, similar to this one: http://www.amazon.com/Konus-Konuscience-1200x-Biological-Microscope/dp/B000VS6BE0/ref=pd_sim_t_9 …in fact, the slides it came with (or that my parents bought with it?) looked almost exactly like these: http://www.amazon.com/Learning-Resources-Prepared-Slides-Combination/dp/B0006PJ11I/ref=pd_bxgy_e_img_b
I spent hours peering into that microscope, at just about everything I could find… bugs, plants, dirt, body parts, bits of food, pond water, carpet fiber, metal shavings, ground-up rocks…. you name it! I am thankful that my parents encouraged my interest in science from an early age. This, or one of many similar devices (USB Microscope maybe? http://www.amazon.com/GSI-High-Definition-Scientific-Microscope-Microscopic/dp/B003BLTX62/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1322501264&sr=8-2 ) is the perfect gift for the budding scientist!

For the adventurous type who doesn’t always have an outlet within five feet comes this excellent solar charger. Whether your out hiking, on a camping trip or just simply at the park and in need of a charge the solio bolt has your phone covered (charged). Perfect gift for those who enjoy the outdoors but can’t leave the house without one electronic. Never worry about a low charge again as long as the sun shines.

Here is why this is THE perfect gift for the holiday season. Now a days everyone not only has several different electronic devices that require charging, but most people will be getting EVEN MORE juice driven devices before the end of the year!
So why a portable charger? We all have outlets in our houses! Well the reason is that a lot of us are travelling to other people’s houses, and can’t always sit next to an outlet with our devices. Now you can play with that new phone wherever you are (long car trips anyone?) and have a great excuse to ignore your in-laws. Plus with an 11,000mAh charge (yes, eleven with three zeroes) you can recharge everything you have several times, and most importantly, it’s affordable.

The Asus A53SV-EH71 is a beautifully balanced machine. It comes with a touch of everything: style, performance, and affordability. The Intel Core i7-2670QM is an absolute processing beast, featuring a full 8 logical cores (quad core + Hyperthreading), so no task – or tasks – is too much. It also features the Nvidia GT540M graphics processor, which gives you more than enough power for HD movies and even high-quality gaming. Throw in the 6GB of RAM, 640GB hard drive, and Wireless-N, and the A53SV-EH71 stacks up to be quite the system. At just $799, you’ll be hard pressed to find a better deal.

What could be better than Andy himself!
..If it could be a gift from any website, I’d pick: http://www.googlestore.com/Accessories/Android+Cookie+Jar.axd

OK, so I really really tried to go through ALL of the comments ahead of me so that (according to the rules) I could be original… but there are sooo many phandroids out there that it started getting impossible to read all the posts. Hopefully this is an original gift giving idea…
Some of my fellow phandroid enthusiasts have mentioned the impending Zombie Apocalypse…(unbelievers, we wish we could change your minds, for if you don’t prepare yourselves, you’ll be zombie food!). One suggested a tomahawk, good for its initial purpose of fighting our way to safety. Another mentioned the book The Zombie Survival Guide: Complete Protection from the Living Dead by Max Brooks, also a good start but not much help after the invasion happens unless used to train new recruits or for starting a much needed fire. Recruits she said? Yes, recruits! Anyone we can save (and let’s face reality here, it’s not going to be you’re 80 year old grandma and we might lose some of the kids… but this is a matter of survival of the fittest, or at least the fastest!) will become a part of the resistance and the resistance needs some sort of order. Order fashioned after a militaristic style of command should work best.
So now we’ve found a compound and are doing ok, we’ve rigged some electricity, found some food stuffs, have clean water… but depending on numbers this won’t last forever. We’re going to need scouts! Yes scouts, people to go out and search for things the compound can use: weapons, ammunition, food, medicine, etc. And here’s where my gift giving idea comes in…
The scout may need to be out for a day or two, and we cannot let them go out without any type of communication….the obvious choice being the Galaxy Nexus. Unfortunately, who knows what he/she will be doing on the phone in the meantime. (Hopefully using GPS and other Zombie Hoard saving apps, but un-monitored they could just as well be playing the latest installment of Angry Birds!!) Anyway, at last report on this well informed Android site the battery life of the Galaxy Nexus was, and I quote “Joshua Topolsky from The Verge has been using his Galaxy Nexus and has something very promising to report regarding its battery life. He says on a pretty heavy day of usage he was able to squeeze out 17 hours of battery life and still have about 13% left.” (by Quentyn Kennemer on 11-23-11) which is awesome for the day to day zombies going back and forth to their cubicles and home everyday (NOT to be confused with the actual living dead zombies I expound upon in the rest of this post). I mention this because we’re not sending out our scouts with some unreliable POS form of communication, I mean that’s why we are all HERE reading this forum, right!!! NO iPHONES WILL BE USED IN THE RESISTANCE!! So, a 1-2 day scouting trip and 17 hours of battery life on the G-NEX, what is one to do?
I have the answer!! I found it here: http://www.amazon.com/Goal0-12301-Nomad-Solar-Panel/dp/B00452EO7Y/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1322499943&sr=8-6
It’s a portable solar powered battery charger with the following features:
1. USB charging port
2. 12 volt DC charging port; includes 12 volt female cigarette adapter
3. 30 percentage smaller than comparable panels and weighs 13 ounce
4. Pocket for devices and for cell charger
5. Compact foldable fabric case with durable loops for hanging
As you can see, this is ideal for sending -do not encounter zombies if at all possible- scouts out on a mission. If the mission takes them longer than the 17 hours of battery time on the G-NEX then he/she will have the solar panel charger, the light weight & flexible solar panel charger to charge the phone. Communication is key. Base operations need to know whether or not the scout has completed his/her mission, is on his/her way back to base or if he/she has become zombie brunch! This is the perfect gift for today also (get several for yourself too) as it is marked down from $99 to $63.99 for cyber Monday!! Hurry I expect supplies won’t last long.
I know many of you folks out there will discount my warnings, do so at your own risk. Trust me, I’ve spent a zillion hours on zombie research to bring you the best zombie fighting tools needed (and all of it this morning). ;)
The resistance is real and the zombies are coming!!
Of course I could do more actual zombie research with all the cool prizes my favorite Android site is giving away today!! Until then, stay safe and prepare for the apocalypse!!

I’m actually looking into getting two of these for my children. My daughter won’t watch hers as much as my son will watch his. He really needs one more since he always hints around about the difference in playing PS3 in my room, and playing in his room. Lol. My daughter doesn’t pay too much attention to her TV since she’s a techy like her dad, and spend most of her time with her face buried in the computer, her ipod, or her phone…sometimes all three. It’s amazing.

Watches are really under appreciated these days (seeing as we all have phones which do the same thing…), but I think they still make a good gift. And if you’d like there are even lots of techie watches too (not that this is one). Oh and I know you said don’t re-post something, but frankly 826 comments is too many to look through to see if someone else put in a watch :).
I gotta say, if you don’t want to make a whole pot of coffee but just one one cup then this is a great holiday gift. http://www.amazon.com/Keurig-B-70-Platinum-Single-Cup-Brewing/dp/B000GTR2F6/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1322502209&sr=8-6

The xbox 360 kinetic has been tried and tested. Now that it is out there and has had a good punishing from the general public it would be a great time to get in on the action. If you don’t own a wii and want to get your blood pumping or maybe get a little bit of exercise that isn’t boring or tedious the kinetic is an ideal solution. It even comes with a party feature which allows you to share the fun on boxing day when you open the kinetic that was given to you by a special someone and the whole family can play. It is now only $99 from Amazon saving you a whopping @50!

Also, they have the “cool people wearing this” ad campaign that is sure to make you just as cool as they look.

It’s fairly cheap at $79.99, plays 1080p video, fits in the palm of your hand, has built in wireless, and streams practically every content channel thats worth watching on the internet.
What more could you want in a gift?
P.S. For the more economical you have the Roku LT:http://www.amazon.com/Roku-2400D-LT-Streaming-Player/dp/B005JACJ50/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1322502672&sr=8-4

His vision gets horribly lost in the murky waters of sci-fi. If you truly watch Star Trek TNG with open eyes and keep in mind what Gene wanted for the world, you will be blown away at the beauty of his mind and the love in his heart. What better way to celebrate peace on earth and good will towards men than with the last series that the great Roddenberry got to be a part of. Star Trek will NEVER be what it once was because what made Star Trek distinct from all other sci-fi was Roddenberry himself.

Tired of waking up early to drive to work? With the Wheelmate Laptop Steering Wheel Desk that’s no problem at all. With the Laptop Steering wheel desk you can easily nap in rush hour traffic, just hit the cruise control, drop a pillow on the tray and snooze away. If you do not have cruise control in your car that’s no problem, we also sell the auto speed regulator here: http://www.amazon.com/Emsco-Group-2155–16-Inch-Pavers/dp/B0029U1BT8/ref=sr_1_103?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1322500288&sr=1-103
It also helps keep your commute to work more interesting with fun games like “How far can I turn before I spill my scalding hot coffee” or “How far can I roll my window down before losing my Egg McMuffin on that tricky blind curve” It’s also great for nursing moms, who can set their child up on the tray while they drive (please keep window closed if attempting sharp curves). Ever been stuck on a long trip and are going crazy listening to your kids shows in the background? No problem, the Wheelmate is large enough to accommodate a 22″ TV VCR combo! Drive them crazy for a change and make them listen to reruns of I Love Lucy.
Live out of your car? This is the perfect tool for you! Convert your driver’s seat into a kitchen (accommodates most hot plates), an office (almost big enough for some laptops), or even a game room (can support a Nintendo DS).
Many of you in the big cities already spend half of your life in your car commuting anyway; why not make it feel like home?

Leatherman Multitool. Be Prepared. Everyone should have one, even if you live in a big city apartment, you should always have the ability to fix the little things that come up in day to day living. Sure, there is some wisdom in having the ‘right tool for the right job’, but most of the time you just need something simple and effective, and more often than not a Leatherman will work. You don’t have to be a handyman or an outdoorsman (or woman) to get plenty of use from a tool like this.

I have some of these headphones and they sound amazing for the price and are extremely comfortable, not to mention that the microphone works for phone calls on my T-Mobile G2, so double win. It also comes in a snap-tight pouch that easily fits into your pocket, so you can carry them with you anywhere.

IMO, the simplicity of activity buttons and shrinking 3 or 4 or even 5 remotes into one is priceless. It is also practical enough to be used every day – something that is key in my gift-giving choices!

The least expensive Acer Chromebook. I don’t want my kids to be stupid. This would help them in school and thus prevent the stupid thing. I also would want a chromebook for them because although this helps thwart the dumb thing, kids still lose stuff and the cloud helps prevent total loss of papers, notes, etc. I hope I win so I don’t have to blame Phandroid for stupid kids.

My gift, isn’t so much about the gift itself, it is the thought behind it. We know that with the holidays comes new years eve and thus New Years resolutions. Most of the resolutions are great but sadly also never come to fruition. So I wanted the gift to help people realize their goals, because, frankly, I believe that having your New Years resolutions realized is worth a lot more than all those material gifts you get with the holidays. So what is something that is for everyone (family, friends and even that one person you only talked to once)? A MOVIE! Now hang on for a sec….I know what you are thinking (I’m thinking it too) but bear with me. Although perhaps a cheap and simple choice, seemingly uninspired, this gift has more thought behind it that most. First of all, a movie is someone everyone enjoys…not just technophiles or movie-fanatics. It is something you can enjoy with other people and spending quality time together with others is time spent well. But even if you are that one person that does not enjoy movies not one bit or you hate the actor in it, (very understandable) even then you would appreciate the message this movie is bringing. YES, I am talking about the movie: “Yes Man”, a movie that could encourage you do go out and undertake more than you ever dreamed. Life is to short to spend playing safe! There are so many great experiences out there just waiting for you! Even if you never watch the movie and you stuff it in a murky drawer in the attic. One day, you will come across it again and the message will be just as true then as it is today. It could serve as a gentle reminder, a simple push to try more! It could help you achieve your New Years resolutions! You could give this movie to a complete stranger and it could have an amazing impact, because the best thing about this gift is that it is ALL about the thought behind it. So when you need to buy a gift for someone you barely know, remember this, for this could be a lifesaver. (Just remember to explain what the idea behind it is, because without the idea, it is just another movie collecting dust on the shelf)

It’s the Blu-ray version, because let’s face it…..even when you just gave someone the gift that will change their lives forever, they don’t know it right now and before that time you don’t want to be the one that gets remembered as the person who didn’t put any effort into the gift (which is ironic, since it probably has more thought behind it than most gifts).
Anyway, I hope you understand the gesture I am trying to convey and I appreciate that you actually read the whole text. It is a big wall of text, so kudos to you!

Definitely going with a solar power device to help me keep my Galaxy nexus or galaxy tab charged. Because of the anticipation of the nexus or my excitement of winning. This means i will not be turning off whatever device i win and will need all sources of energy to keep me going. What better source than the sun. Because pretty soon all the 4g devices will require solar panels to keep up with the ever changing juice draining features android 5.0 will have after ice cream sandwich. So best gift would be to give this. Especially giving this to a new android user not knowing yet about the battery draining that is required with android phones.

Perhaps the original amazon kindle? Its for the average person who doesn’t care about all the other features that the kindle fire has. If you love to read book’s, and you consider it your hobby this is your best bet.Also its not going to break the bank if you decide to purchase it, it’s not too cheap or expensive ! You can get one starting at 79.99 . I plan on getting one for my mom this year for xmas. If you prefer touch screen, they have one for 99.99 ! Thats only 20 dollars extra.

My dad has seen my own enthrallment with the android operating system and has been looking for an opportunity to experience it for himself. He loves to read books, and I recommended the Fire to him. Through the Fire, I believe we will further bond and have exponentially more to talk about together as Android infinitely grows.

The new touchsmart “magic canvas” feels like you are using a smart phone right on your windows desktop. The integration with windows 7 is great and feels like it was designed around it. This computer is an all-in-one so it uses very little space and wires. I think for a family that wants a good living-room computer you cant go far wrong with this model. It also has Beats Audio for when you want to crank the music.
All in all, a great set up for a great price and a really cool gadget for everyone in the family!

What could be better than a quick frappuccino while reading an e-book on your new Kindle Fire? Or serve up a batch of margaritas for your backyard bbq with music on your new Jambox in the background! Easy to clean, it’s fool proof way of creating delicious libations… the magic bullet is the way to go for an awesome gift for the holidays!
I just purchased an Xbox360 with Kinect & my wife specifically DEMANDED that in order for me to buy the Xbox that I had to PROMISE to buy the Zumba Fitness game for her. So that is the gift giving idea that I suggest all men promise their wives so that they will let you finally buy the gaming system you’ve been wanting to buy for months, lol…hey it worked for me! Good luck & happy shopping!

For a great donation to a search dog organization like California Rescue Dog Association (http://www.carda.org), try getting and giving this product to a search team to help protect search dogs that are out in the worst parts of the states where the fleas and ticks could be a real problem. The search dog handlers volunteer their time and pay for all their own gear and supplies. It becomes a tax deduction as well.

I got one of these little RC helicopters a while back and they are AWESOME. The price currently is also ridiculously good (under $30) so it’s very practical as a joke gift for a buddy, small (but awesome) gift for a young person, or for yourself…
Great price, hours and hours of fun (my friends and I often spend evenings sitting around, chatting, and taking turns trying to land on small pedestals/navigate through small areas), and will be enjoyed by just about anyone (even my parents find this thing to be awesome and they aren’t “hip” or very coordinated).
If that’s not a good gift then what is? :-)

The Lego Ideas Book. As a kid I loved Legos, and expressed my creativity through them. I’d buy this for any child between 5 and 12.
Not really android related, but after visiting a friend’s house this Thanksgiving, this worked pretty well, and was a cool gift idea:

Charge nearly every cell phone/music player/small portable device with this external battery. Stores enough juice for nearly a full charge for most devices, and charges via USB, AC, or built in solar panels, allowing you to recharge your phone even out camping or anywhere else you don’t have access to an outlet.
Plus, for under $30 it’s easy enough on the wallet to be a stocking stuffer.

http://www.amazon.com/Xbox-360-4GB-Console-Kinect/dp/B003O6EE4U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1322505150&sr=8-1
My niece and nephew want an Xbox 360 with Kinect for games like Dance Central and Kinect Sports. They love to spend time out doors and still enjoy playing video games. This will help them stay active during the winter months. Also this will give them a chance for healthier competition other then just fighting for the controller.
Since someone else posted an Xbox 360 with Kinect I will go for this then http://www.amazon.com/Joby-Gorillatorch-Adjustable-Flexible-Flashlight/dp/B002IT5DIU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1322505362&sr=8-1 . My dad works on cars that “friends” ask him to repair. Sometimes he works into the night and either can’t work on them because it’s to dark or because someone is not around to hold a flash light. This will help him a lot on those occasions.
Everyone has different tastes, and it’s hard to predict what someone will love or even have. Also, if you know someone likes something, then chances are that someone else will buy it for them as well, so I propose this:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/gc
I would put $100 on it, so it would be enough. You can get whatever you wanted with this. :) This will also work for anybody. Everyone you know had to use Amazon at least once in their life, right?
This is….wait for it…LEGENDARYY!
http://www.amazon.com/Official-Barney-Stinson-Armani-Suitjamas/dp/B005PL9ZL4/ref=pd_sim_sbs_gro_22
Who wouldnt want to wear one of these on christmas!
I think the Kinect would be a great gift this year for only 99.99.

A couple of reasons to pick up an optimus prime for someone. First, transformers are ALWAYS an awesome gift! Second, with the Transformer Prime and Nexus Prime (I really don’t like the Galaxy Nexus Name) being the best phone/tablet combo this holiday season, adding a Optimus Prime to the pair makes the oh so holy trinity of PRIMES!
Wow, I’m not the only Lego fan.
Build a Lego Winter Post Office with the kids. Makes a nice family tradition activity.

because the holidays can be filled with mixed emotions from a family that gets along well to those that can’t stand each other this idea can remedy the situation or throw it into overdrive … just remember to brew and drink responsibly

http://www.amazon.com/Android-Collectible-Snowman-Christmas-Special/dp/B0051IIWB0
Hmm.. here is something nice for the holiday collectible item.
This actually gives me a great idea.. much of my family loves tech, and the way the tech world is trending toward more and more integration, I could create for them a list of integrating tech products (android/iphone remote applications, HTPC for watching/streaming (or a boxee box!), cloud-based music services available on all devices — heck a list of devices (phones, tablets, PCs, etc), as well help for getting all your devices connected and shared (family contact lists! xmas lists! family calendars!).
I can integrate this all into Amazon, with links to products. To get them started, the only “gift” I would need to get them (other than creating the list), is an Amazon gift certificate (https://www.amazon.com/gp/gc/order-email?ie=UTF8&ref_=gc_lp_4ways_email_top)
I think my family would love this.. many of them have devices, just don’t know how to get them all to work together and better…

Lacie Coolkey Flash Drives, available up to 32GB.
The cool thing about this USB drive is that it’s super portable (shaped like a key), it has a crap-ton of storage, and is actually ridiculously fast (I get sustained 10megabyte/sec transfers).
I’ve found that the other gimmicky USB drives are usually slow, bulky, or just impractical to lug around. This one is perfect. Who doesn’t need portable storage? (OK, I admit, this would be a terrible gift for 90year old grandma/grandpa =p)

Everyone should have a decent router this holiday. The WNDR3700 is based on and is fully compatible with stock OpenWRT firmware. It has excellent range, speed, and quality and is a great update to 802.11n from a/b/g. Not only will this help out your Android phone, it will also help out any other networked devices and tablets. This model also features a simultaneous 5GHZ radio so if you have a device that supports it or plan to in the future, you can get off the crowded 2.4GHZ frequency AND experience faster speeds :). I’d love to use this with a new Galaxy Nexus!

Is this season really all about STUFF? Have we all forgotten what it’s really about? If every one of you would click on the link below, buy a few Bibles and teach just a few children what Christmas is REALLY all about, we might have a better world. JESUS is the reason for the season. Stuff is fun but our lives with Jesus can be eternal.

While you yourself may not have a lot, there’s always someone out there who has less. Consider donating a blanket to a shelter so that one more homeless person stays warm these holidays. Make this Christmas thoughtful, not about what you can receive, but what you can do to pay it forward to someone in need.

50% of the time spent daily of a true android phans life is spent looking at and dreaming of new android phones. But what about the other 50%? That is usually reserved for girls. The Sex Panther cologne can help you with the girls part of your life. With real bits of panther in every spray, you will be getting noticed by girls left and right. They will be dropping their panties at the first scent of this stuff. Just ask my ex girlfriend, she loved this stuff, then again, she loved a lot of things, like cheating on me with older men, but I digress. Sex Panther is the gift of choice this holiday season. Stay classy Phandroid.

As much as we think our lives circle around phones, water will always keep us running. Here’s a holiday gift that will hold enough water to help you during hard times. Happy holidays everyone!

Yes, this is a flamethrower. And you need one to protect yourself from zombies. And vampires. And paparazzi. Here’s the thing… you won’t be doing yourself any special favors by smothering the undead with a delicious wall of burning fire unless you completely incinerate them. But who doesn’t love to watch the undead stumble around and bump into each other in a Keystone-Cops-meet-Human-Torch manner while toasting marshmallows and popping popcorn? Just be sure to keep a weapon at hand for when the flames die down (especially for the paparazzi… they’re nasty little buggers) and don’t use the device in a small, enclosed space.
When I win I’m going to need to buy these noise canceling headphones for my family because I will be screaming so loud. I WON! I FREAKIN WON!!! http://www.amazon.com/Philips-SHN5200-28-Cancelling-Headphone/dp/B004JXXQDM/ref=sr_1_10?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1322505400&sr=1-10

I chose this link because I find it ironic that someone on AT&T can get a phone unlocked that is supposed to be a Verizon Exclusive in the U.S. before I can get mine.

You can repair cables, etc. and make all kinds of cool stuff. It’s as useful as duct tape, but can be shaped like putty. After it cures, it’s waterproof, endures extreme temperatures, and still stays flexible.
You should get me some for Christmas. I’ll use Google Navigation to get me there to pick it up. Or you can make sure ya’ll shape some into a Samsung phone, like a Nexus! (Don’t worry Nexus, the Galaxy S has Nothin’ On You.)

Hands down the best handheld HD “helmet cam” on the market. Because of the incredibly small design and shape, this cam fits seamlessly on the side of a helmet, instead of sticking up 4″ off the top of your helmet like other cams do. One button simplicity allows you to always be sure that you’re recording, all this without having to take your gloves off. The ROAM is brand new this year and at an incredible price right now. Purchase one today and record your adventures!

Ok – i know this is kind of obvious – and they said not to post from their list of suggested items, but come on – the reason we’re all posting on here is because we want a free kindle fire.

I always try to encourage or buy my friends Radar Detectors for their cars (assuming it’s legal in the state, of course!). A lot of people have this negative view of RDs but I tend to like them because they make me a lot more aware of my surroundings when I’m driving. Even if I get an X or K band alert and I think it’s not a police vehicle, I still check my speed and my surroundings. It helps prevent speeding if you unknowingly tend to have a lead foot! All-in-all a great and easy way to make your driving experience a little more exciting and safe.

Have you ever been sitting drinking a nice warm cup of hot cocoa and think to yourself I need some more marshmallows, but man they are WAY over there! I dont want to have to get up and miss any of my show and the wife is already there, but I dont want to get her mad and ask her to bring me some. Well with this you can say “Hey honey, could you shoot me a couple of marshmallows?” Just think how happy she will be to aim this bad boy right at your forehead, and make fun of you for being lazy all at the same time. But hey, at least you got your marshmallows?

Since almost every smartphone on the market today carries people’s personal photos and videos, why not share them with your friends and family! With the portable pico pocket projector, you’ll be able to quickly and easily project these images onto any surface for everyone to enjoy. Additionally, you can stream movies and videos services like Netflix or Hulu straight from your device and present them in a fun and creative way. And with the long-lasting battery, you’ll be set for hours of fun on a single charge. This is truly a gift that everyone can enjoy!

With all the USB devices people carry around nowadays and their (mostly) crappy battery life, this seems like a good idea for an outdoorsy person. Especially good for someone who goes camping/hiking and needs their phones/GPS. Maybe if there is a model or a way to attach to a backpack it’d be even better.
http://www.amazon.com/Headblade-Sport-Ultimate-Shave-razor/dp/B000NFEX46/ref=pd_bxgy_hpc_text_bIt's a funny idea for the people that shave their heads. It does actually work but it’s not the greatest.

My mom has neuropathy in her feet from diabetes that causes a constant cold feeling, and my wife and mother in law both have cold feet. I plan to buy a bunch of those foot warmer booties for Christmas.
Hi! I am entering this contest in hopes of giving these gifts to my boyfriend for Christmas. I can’t afford to buy him a gift and these are all items on his wish list. Although he wouldn’t mind not receiving a gift, I really want to do something awesome for him. He is a HUGE phandroid fan. He is always telling me about the last phandroid articles and announcements and updates about android. He introduced me to android and taught me everything I know. Mobile technology is one of his greatest passions. He can talk for hours about it and spends hours on phandroid reading. He is the go-to person on what phone a person should get, but doesn’t have one himself. I would really love to win this holiday package for him. He is in desperate need of a new phone. He currently uses a Tmobile razr v3 (the old one that flips). My boyfriend is a full time college student who has made the Dean List, and works. He drives two hours every day back and forth to school and works the entire weekend (Friday to Sunday). On top of this he helps his single mom take care of his three brothers. PLEASE help me give my boyfriend, of three years, a little piece of joy and happiness this Christmas! THANKS!

The Lord of the Rings is one of the best trilogies ever written (personal assessment, of course). The imagination of J.R.R. Tolkien to create a ‘Middle-Earth’ is amazing, and has touched some many people the last 50 odd years. Give the gift of adventure, hardship, passion, culture, to a loved one. May it inspire them to long for something more than being idle, and enable them to have the fortitude to achieve greatness.
I will never forget when my father gave me these books. I loved them and could not put it down for weeks! It’s turned into a life long passion to discover all the Tolkien created.
And, to boot, it’s only $13.60! I may get one myself :)

Here’s a great gift to give yourself! An 8 person tent as a place to put those less than desireable relatives or vistors over the hoidays. This will encourage them to go home, while giving yourself peace and quiet. When the holidays are over and the visitors are gone, you’ll have a terrific tent for your camping vacaitons!
I realize this is neither the most romantic nor technological gift that could be given during Christmas, but I would like to point out it is very practical and useful (for those of you who do deign to shower every day):

He drives two hours every day back and forth to school and works the entire weekend (Friday to Sunday). On top of this he helps his single mom take care of his three brothers. PLEASE help me give my boyfriend, of three years, a little piece of joy and happiness this Christmas! THANKS!

Of course the greatest gift anyone bro can give any other bro is a Mountain 3 wolf moon t-shirt.
http://www.amazon.com/Mountain-Three-Short-Sleeve-Black/dp/B000NZW3KC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1322504099&sr=8-1
The sheer power of this shirt can help a good man to be great and an average man to be good. Unfortunately, if you suck it cannot overcome suckitude, but at least you’ll look cool.
The comments on this item will truly help you see how this t-shirt can create a life-transforming experience. I mean, it glows for Pete’s sake. If this isn’t on your list for all your bros, watch this video to truly see the power:

I’ve always loved the holidays, but the chaos of these special times often muddies the memories we keep of them. That’s why it’s important to document these times, and what better way to do that than with a brand new digital camera? This Panasonic Lumix comes equipped with image stabilization so you can still get great pics while the young ones are running amuck around your lower extremities. It also comes with a hot shoe for an external flash so you can capture well-lit moments around the fireplace. Sometimes the DSLR is just too clunky to carry around while you’re merry multitasking and that’s where this gem comes in. Professional shooter or just an excited parent, this camera is sure to please!

Great for people that work in a creative work environment where this type of thing is OK, or even at home to “guard” your office or room. I’ve used the remote access through skype feature a couple of times myself. And let me say, this thing is worth every penny for the look on the “victim’s” face. It’s a little noisy, so little chance of hitting someone unaware unless it’s already lined up. but the first time i tried it on my wife, she FREAKED as my aim followed her around and fled my office right quick.

Hi! I am entering this contest in hopes of giving these gifts to my boyfriend for Christmas. I can’t afford to buy him a gift and these are all items on his wish list. Although he wouldn’t mind not receiving a gift, I really want to do something awesome for him. He is a HUGE phandroid fan. He is always telling me about the last phandroid articles and announcements and updates about android. He introduced me to android and taught me everything I know. Mobile technology is one of his greatest passions. He can talk for hours about it and spends hours on phandroid reading. He is the go-to person on what phone a person should get, but doesn’t have one himself. I would really love to win this holiday package for him. He is in desperate need of a new phone. He currently uses a Tmobile razr v3 (the old one that flips). My boyfriend is a full time college student who has made the Dean List, and works. He drives two hours every day back and forth to school and works the entire weekend (Friday to Sunday). On top of this he helps his single mom take care of his three brothers. PLEASE help me give my boyfriend, of three years, a little piece of joy and happiness this Christmas! THANKS!

This is the perfect gift for anyone. From what I have seen you do not want to go shopping on Black Friday without one of these. It comes with a sweet holder so that it is right there when you need it most (like at Wal-Mart). I have also been told it is quite useful if you are trying to get rid of protesters.

You can have all the coolest latest gadgets and gizmos for your computer, multi-monitor setups with tablets and phones around you, but if you’re not in a comfy well built chair, it just doesn’t feel right.
Seriously, one of the best choices that you can make when you’re sitting for any period of time is a great chair.

Never sleep in again with this alarm clock! This clock starts running when the alarm sounds. This means that you will be forced to get up in order to turn the alarm off. It’s a great gift idea because most people tend to sleep in after a nice long holiday. I really think it’s a very fun way to wake up. This gift is suitable for everyone, from kids and adults. It’s a little overpriced, but the description says that 5% of the proceeds will go to the Global Fund to eliminate AIDS. What a great way to get out of bed for a good cause!

Whip out your too-cool-for-school hard-wire cutters. Got a bottle of champagne to pop open to celebrate your newfound awesomeness? Whip out your all-time-favorite bottle/can opener. Got a lanyard with nothing to attach to it? Pull out your lanyard attachment, and hang your gift of awesomeness around your neck. Got a few nails to file? Whip out your diamond-coated file. Got a baby carriage to measure for optimum baby length? Pull out your insanely amazing ruler. Got a wild polar bear to fend off? Whip out your serrated knife and your clip-point knife and hope for the best, though you’re probably screwed anyway.
This is the gift of the century. No, this is the gift of the millenium! Put it on your wishlist and hope Santa is man enough to even carry your 2 x 8 x 2 inch prize of awesomeness to your Christmas tree.
Bring it on, world. Bring it on.

This wireless wearable camera would be an amazing gift for anyone who likes to do things outdoors, or just wants to capture funny genuine shenanigans with friends and family, capture LIFE. For the adventurous people out there, this would be great for capturing a fleeting moment on a hike, or capturing that sweet trick you just pulled off on your bike or skateboard. With those family moments, pointing massive cameras or obviously having your phone pointed at people can make them nervous, but with something like this, capturing all those moments would feel natural for everyone.
It’s an ultra convenient device that lets your video show things in the same way you see it naturally and always on to capture those unexpected moments you wish you had a camera for.
Not to mention the fact that it’s a Bluetooth headset that you can take your phone calls on as well. It’ll even mute the audio in the video for you when a call starts! If you normally carry a Bluetooth headset, just replace it with one of these and it won’t even be an extra item to carry!
It works with most Android 2.0+ devices, even ones not on their list, (that obviously hasn’t been updated) and even those iOS doodads, to keep every techie happy!

Do you know someone who has tinny laptop speakers? Do those speakers make you want to claw your ears off? Have you considered all the ways to destroy said laptop? Then the Logitech z305 is the perfect gift for the friend’s laptop you hate. I bought one of these last year for my girlfriend after I couldn’t handle one more Lady Gaga song… Either she had to go, or the laptop. Sadly the z305 solved our audio problems before I was able in engage in extreme counter measures. The audio quality is surprising excellent and very full sounding It is powered by just the laptops USB port and also acts as its own USB sound card. There is an auxiliary jack as well just in case you want to start throwing down some dope lyrics or make a makeshift megaphone for your next OWS protest. The speaker is fairly light and should not weigh down your screen unless your laptop has some serious osteoporosis hinges.
Trust me if you want to be the most loved person this year, give the gift of Logitech z305. Bonus points if you slap on some Dre Beats stickers and tell them it is an unreleased test product…

This gift would be for my Autistic nephew who is not doing so well, hes only 6 years old and has been in and out of the hospital numerous times over the past year, he has other health issues as well. they have one of these at his therapy and he just loves this thing. He gets so happy and cant get the smile off his face. I want him to have one at his home, so he can smile all the time and have something he is interested in playing with. I cannot afford it right now so im working 60 hours a week and saving up my overtime money to get this for him. In this case it really is better to give than to receive and i look forward to seeing his eyes light up when he unwraps this and sees whats inside. there are alot other things at amazon but this is the number one gift on my list and in my wishlist that is why im posting it.

As a college student, I have a great deal of time management to do on a daily basis. However, I can only imagine that this is also the case for busy people in the workforce, especially those with families . This is an ideal Christmas gift because it allows one to visibly identify due dates and important events. Although smartphones are great for this purpose as well, there’s nothing quite like having an reminder on your wall in black and white (or in color, if one desires). Because it’s a dry erase calendar, it can be used as many times as desired, so you only need to buy one! Sometimes, the greatest gifts aren’t the most expensive ones.

Great for someone that wants a way to charge their smartphone in the car, without using a 12v plug. Hardwire it in your center console or dash and bring the micro USB plug out right where you keep your phone.

It might sound cheesy, but this is a great gift to give a loved one or good friends (or any friends for that matter). With winter upon us in NY state, it’s nice to have many of the various items that you may need in an emergency, especially the blanket, 12v light and the waterproof matches.

These headphones are awesome! I have been using them for a few years now and they have worked perfectly with my Nexus One. I use them all the time while I work out and never have to worry about wires getting caught and pulling on my ears. They sound great and they work as advertised for hands free calling. I have recommended these to many friends and all have been impressed.

Have you felt the fear and panic as you see your cherished device waiting patiently to receive a liquid. As it moves closer and closer at a dreamlike speed. Heartbreak sets in. A crazed frenzy of shaking and drying by any means insues. You frantically check your favorite apps, hoping the ordeal is over.
Well fear no more! The ultimate device protection is available at a low cost. A cherished gift waiting to embrace our devices. Give the gift of confidence,get yourself one.
The WATERPROOF and FIREPROOF home safe! Large enough for your tablets,cells and accessories. But small enough to take wherever needed. No need for an overpriced under qualified case. Nothing is safer than a safe!
When you think about some great inventions, what comes to mind? The automobile,sliced bread,matches,the airplane,and,of course, the cellular phone immediately stand out. However,there’s one that proves its worth day in and day out. One invention that if it ceased to exist,people would protest for days, demanding its return. Men and women would storm stores hoping to find…something. Something that could possibly fill the void left in their lives after its departure.

Other than cash,there is no gift in the world that is as immediately useful. There are no drivers to download. No software to install. No batteries to buy. No instruction manual to read. It is the universal gift. You can’t show me someone who has ever said,“I don’t like Post-Its,” because that person does not exist. Want to give someone a gift and be absolutely certain they’ll use it? Well,throw out the gift receipt and look no further.

It’s a great gift idea because I have been waiting for this for months to come out. I find myself reading all the time, and carrying around my books is cumbersome. This eliminates the need to carry the books I travel with on my business trips. You might not have that new book smell, but you do look trendy with it.

Forza 4 makes a great gift for dads, because it gets them enthused about Xbox. The Xbox becomes something for them, too, rather than just the kids’ thing. Most men like admire fast, expensive cars.

But, let’s get real here–everyone is better at buying things for themselves, so why not let them? Rather then get them some useless, gimmicky, junk, get them an Amazon gift card. With millions of products, they will definitely find something they love. Don’t bother with the hassle of finding that perfect gift, just buy an Amazon gift card.

Not sure but probably the first board game on the list. Run For Your Life Candyman is a no holds barred fight for survival. Its a race against time to escape the kingdom before you are captured by the king and feed to candy crazed children. Great for children of all ages this fun and twisted take on the classic Candy Land is the perfect addition to any family game night.

So myself and many of my friends, live on their laptops, but hate the heat that is
released from it when it’s on their lap. I’m sure anyone that has a laptop has
faced this. What’s great about this lapdesk is not only it’s 4 layers of
heat protection but also the fact that it has speakers on both ends. All you
have to do is attach the USB and voila! Rich music from the stereos! I also love
the fact that it’s not very expensive. A lot of the present day cooling pads are $60 +.
This one is on sale and totally worth it!
A great gift would be TOMS!
Not only does the giftee receive a great pair of kicks, a new pair gets gifted to someone in need in the process! A Double Gift FTW!!

This isn’t the newest bluetooth headset, but it definitely is one of the best when it comes to price and features. And since this isn’t on the Phandroid gift list, I think it deserves some attention due to the low price tag.
Not only are you able to listen to your music wirelessly thanks to A2DP, but you can also answer phone calls!
I have had this product for a year and LOVE IT! And, in my honest opinion, it is pretty darn stylish.
If you are looking for a cheap gift with features that compete with other headsets, give this one a look! Pretty awesome!

If you can get past the “i”, these devices are top-notch.
iCruiser ($50) & iSound ($70) portable power supplys.
They are essentially the same, with the iCruiser being 11,000mah and having 1 usb port and the iSound being 16,000mah and having 5 usb ports.
Every external battery pack/charger could barely put 3/4 of a charge on my phones or mp3 player. These blow that away. With the smaller iCruiser, I can charge my DInc 5-7 times. You can also charge your tablets with these. 1 extra (good) battery for your phone can cost $30-$50, so one of these is well worth it.
Great for going off the grid for a week or two, but cheating a bit. Or if you live in a hurricane zone like myself, you don’t have to worry about not having power for a week.

Few things bring people together as well as a good ol’ fashioned cookout. Burgers and kabobs are not only a catalyst for scintillating conversations, bursts of heartfelt laughter and genuine points of human connection – they are also super tasty and make for happy stomachs!
What better way to replicate the summer festivities and bring some warmth to the tyrannical cold of the winter months than with an indoor grill? Invite friends and family, slap a few shrimp on the barbie and let the fun begin!
I think it’s a great gift idea!

Here’s my reason: It is appropriate for men, women and children of all ages. Everyone wants to know the time. Also it is inexpensive but at the same time it has that “expensive” look and feel to it. The style of this watch is very casual so it will be suitable to wear with almost anything. This will make a great present. Whoever receives it will love it.

As an musician (not professional) and father, music and family are of the utmost importance. Music brings families, friends and strangers, alike, together. My 13 month old loves both music and guitars. Sure, he can’t play the way daddy does but boy does he try! I (Santa) will be buying (bringing) this one in particular because he has a couple of “Cars” themed toys.
Thanks for considering my entry.

Forget the Leatherman, there is no better sound than the “shink” of a Gerber Multi-Plier sliding out, ready for action. I used mine for nearly 5 years on board the USS Gettysburg (CG-64) in the mid-nineties and for the past 15 years they’ve been used for fishing, camping, and general automotive use. Any tool that can survive twenty years of use is true winner.

But that’s not it. You can take notes in class on it,give it to those loud kids you’re babysitting and let them doodle on it to shut them up. You can give to it to your own kids to shut them up. What’s great about this gift is that we ALL have a desire to express ourselves. Whether it’s on forums like this,speaking out in a classroom,or writing in a diary you keep under a mattress –our thoughts are meant to be shared. With the Boogie Board you can do that,over and over again using anything from your fingertip to the bobby-pin in your hair. No pen to find and no pencil to sharpen.
Expression is human nature. So is innovation. This is where the two meet.

This is an amazing little multitool. The knife is sharp, cuts though plastic blister pack like butter, along with a 2 regular sized screwdrivers ( + and – ) along with one glasses sized ( – ) and a bottle opener. It folds down to the size of a key and stays secure on a keychain.
What makes it a great gift is the price… perfect for some one you are unsure of and if they don’t like it you are only out about 8 bucks =]
So Christmass is now around the corner. My parents r always the easiest to get gifts for but this year my sister is gonna be a Tad bit difficult cuz she’s halfway done with her junior year in highschool. I figured maybe a tablet. . . But nah. . . Then I thought maybe a gift card to express. . . But nah. . And then I figured it out. . There’s something she could use more importantly. Her first cell phone. And with virgin mobile no manual contract phones she can get a decent entry level smart phone and only have to pay as low as 35$ a month. But since I’m such an awesome brother and 35$isnt eeven alot of money ill just pay it. And of course since I’m an android user, she should follow in my footsteps and become another androidian like her big brother. So what better way to get her started with the HTC wildfire s!!!!

I love it!!!
There’s no better way to admire the beauty and functionality of you new Nexus beast than mounting it in a prominent position on your windshield (traffic laws be damned), using it to guide you over the hills and through the woods to grandmother’s house while streaming your favorite tunes directly to your car’s radio and keeping your new baby charged. I’m sure this post won’t be chosen due to the lack of correct punctuation but engineers don’t do spelling.

Although I just started this series earlier this year, I’ve been amazed by the book A Game of Thrones by George R. R.

They’re not home-theater quality or anything, but for someone who likes music and travels a lot, they’re decent quality, pretty good volume, and extremely portable. Plus, they’re relatively inexpensive, and you can get multiple ones and chain them together for a bigger effect.

More and more often having a small yet very capable portable computer is handy. I quickly went from having a smart phone doing most of my work to getting an Asus Transformer on black friday. For the price, size, and features, the Galaxy Tab 7 Plus is an amazing device and sure to turn heads without being too bulky. It is also amazingly useful, and when paired with a bluetooth keyboard, eliminates most peoples’ needs for a laptop while delivering better battery life and portable performance.
I know this will be disqualified because it is one hour late.
However, I just want to get this out:

Why this? Because we NOW can actually have our own Android docks (plus any device that has micro usb). No more buying iPhone/iPod docks and using the aux/audio-in option because that is just plain stupid. Buying a dock that we cannot dock.
Everyone should gift their family, friends, cowokers, etc., whom has an Android device, an Android dock because the increasing sale will trigger other OEMs to compete and make more (cheaper) docks for Android. We see iPhone/iPod docks everywhere, even alarm clocks and built-in car dock, but they are nearly non-existent for Android. TIME TO DEMAND.
PS. I do not own one yet since they are very expensive now but it would be nice if someone gifted me one of these, so I can listen to music while showering/pooping and sing my lungs out, and make my cousin jealous since he “docks” his Thunderbolt with an iPhone dock in his bathroom.

I wanted to say ASUS Transformer Prime but cannot find it,
so the only thing for now is GALAXY NEXUS in no doubts!
The pure experience from Google make it the 1st one, and always the 1st one to get update, which is kinda lame for Android OEM that they always need 3 months to update the phone, and they may probably update once!
But Galaxy Nexus will have All update!
With the nice HD screen and nice plain curved design, it is perfectly the best gift in this holiday! (for me at least =P)
Because reading an actual printed book is a good thing.

I’m sure someone already posted it, but I really think it’s a great product. The Kindle Keyboard 3G. I think, better than the Kindle Fire, it has an e-ink screen so it can be read in direct sunlight. I like the version with the keyboard because I feel that it gives me more flexibility. And the free 3G is an awesome plus so you have the freedom to use the Kindle anywhere whether or not you have wifi.

Recently my wife gave birth to our second child. To make space for him in our room, we sat and ‘discussed’ all options. So in the end, I picked up my GS2 and went into my Amazon app and…..bingo!! I found this intex airbed….perfect!! The wife, mum et al couldn’t agree more! So I ordered and got it next day. And now every night, I spend two minutes watching it pump electrically and then placing my daughter on it to sleep (she loves it!). And that’s why I recommend this for the perfect holiday gift ….because when Uncle Frank brings his fat ass over unexpectedly …whip out the intex airbed :-)

Most of us who are crazy about our cellphones are crazy about gadgets and often about audio. For the audiophile on your gift list, the Zoom H4n is a great way to record from multiple inputs including lots of mic types and from the builtin mics. Never again will your gift recipient have to give up on a great video with lousy audio (which kept happening to me). Finally, reliable audio!

This is my favorite pair of noise cancelling headphones. I work in a noisy environment where I have to write code and focus on the task at hand. I can block out the sounds around me while listening to my favorite tunes. I haven’t had the opportunity to take them on them on a plane but I’m sure they would eliminate the engine noise and annoying passengers near by. If you are looking for a pair, check out the reviews on these. You won’t be disappointed. Happy Holidays!
Since gadgets such as smartphones and tablets are becoming common part of our lives, its always good to be able to use them on the road and running without worrying about the battery. This external charger should add extra juice to your device:

So, who won?
the rules say a winner will be chosen within 24 hours of the contest end time and notified within 24 hours after that..on a side note can people really not tell time?
My comment was mostly a prod at the editors. I haven’t seen any winners posted. Either they haven’t posted them or some combination of “I haven’t looked hard enough” and “They haven’t been posted clearly enough.”

This is a great gift from an amateur photographer to a pro who wants to cary a camera at all times. Now that the EP-2 and other models are out, this camera is on super sale! I have one of these and I never leave home without it. It’s great for urban photography because of it’s compact 4/3rds system.

I’d love to get a Kindle Fire for my little sister. It fits every of her needs :)
I think this one of the best gift ideas so useful for any around the house job or DIY project.

Something that we don’t want as a gift an iPad, because android tablets are better
My idea would be some nice pens. It’s something that people always lose but never think to buy.

it’s the perfect gift for your wife. She’ll love it and love you for ever.
Not to be a complainer but I received the Phandroid newsletter earlier in the day and followed the link to enter, only problem was that link took me to last nights contests because apparently this one is different? My link to Amazon was put in the other contest so hopefully you can use that as my eligible entry. Otherwise here’s another:

Best headphones you’ll ever use. Have been using them since 2001 and have never looked back. If you really want to enjoy your sound, pick these up.

Bounce castle will be the perfect gift for my family (as we jump for joy) if I win, the Kindle Fire for my Dad, Jawbone JAMBOX for my Mom, Isotoner gloves and Seidio voucher for my sister, Andy t-shirts for my brother… leaving me with the Galaxy Tab (since my laptop died) and Nexus (so I can start trying to develop my own apps for work.)
Why not give what we all want to get? In the spirit of Christmas and all other holidays, wrap up a brand new Kindle Fire for that lucky someone.

My father-in-law is renovating a portion of his home and he “has” to have a 60 inch above the fireplace… I told him LED(local dimming) but he wants Plasma with all the fix-ins so…Samsung PN59D8000 59-Inch 1080p 600Hz 3D Plasma HDTV (Black)

No better gift can be given than that of entertainment. However, it must be classic AND quality. So I say “Put up your Dukes” with this collection of classic John Wayne Movies. When the weather out side turns frightful, fire up the DVD player for some delightful movie enjoyment.

I want a Jambox so that I can annoy my co-workers with the most obscure and strangest music I can find. One of them persistently plays Britney Spears and Justin Bieber music “at” me during the day and I need the capability to return fire. Flaming Lips’ Dark Side of the Moon maybe?

There are so many post no one will see this but my question is I have not seen one announcement of any winners? Are they just going to be contacted but not announced? Am I missing something in the rules I did not see?

Very cool PC case for you “Phantom Droid”
seriously who won? could ypu atleast tell us SOMEONE won so i can stop crossing my fingers?
I know this sounds silly but how does Phandroid know how to contact me if I won the prize? I have not seen any announcements? So I assume they are contacting through email? Twitter?
I’m dreaming of: http://www.amazon.com/Apple-MC770LL-Tablet-Black-NEWEST/dp/B001I907I2/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1322528880&sr=8-2 Do you think Santa will know how good I’ve been!
Not very original, I know, but considering its price, I think its a great gif for your grandmother, your kid, or anybody in-between. I would also love to win one for myself in this great contest! ;)

I apologize if this comment got in twice… Phone said it didn’t go…
Those of us who are phone freaks are usually gadget freaks and have other techie hobbies. If someone on your gift list is into audio or maybe making videos, I’d they’re like me, having a way to record from multiple sources other than a videocam is a godsend. With the Zoom h4n no more video that has to be trashed or dubbed over because the audio is a mess. Highly recommended!!

Great book!
Dear phandroid…some of us work and cannot be on this website 24/7. This is not the way to do contest. Sincerely, discouraged android lover with a job.
** Original entry post removed since I work and missed the 3PM deadline **
Oh common… Just saw the 3PM deadline and I really think I’m over all this. Not everybody is home all day working on their Blog/website and has access to your contests (ALL day).
Once again these contests so far have been a major fail… Maybe it’s time to drop this site and go to Androidcentral and Droid life… I really hope you guys rethink your current strategy and actually allow all your daily visitors a “real” chance to actually enter/win these so called contests.

Theres nothing wrong with going with the classic nexus one. This phone is still considered a high end phone today, almost 2 years after its release. The galaxy nexus is a worthy successor.

i’ve seen people with this as their splash screen and boot animation, but now anyone who passes your car in the parking lot can see that ANDROID DOMINATES over apple. and for just $2.89 this makes a perfect and cheap stocking stuffer.
and any android enthusiast wouldn’t be able to do anything but laugh when they see this lol
Thanks for all your great work phandroid, and of course this android lovers contest!
