Digital Cameras, The BlackBerry 8800 and Other Tech Gifts for Mother's Day

Mother's Day is coming up quickly! This year, what about giving her something special - something a little longer-lasting than a dozen roses or a half hour of a breakfast in bed? Show your love for her with a special tech gift that is sure to bring a smile to her face!

Digital Cameras

The atypical film camera is quickly becoming outdated, and of course they can be quite expensive. With a digital camera, not only can she snap pictures in a heartbeat, but the storage and ease of portability make them a great gift. The Sony Cybershot S650 is a favorite choice of families, not only for low pricing (about $129), but for its crystal clear picture taking and ability to take short videos.

For the bit more budget conscious, the Kodak EasyShare C613 is a great alternative as well. For the low average price of $80 - this camera performs well in all areas. However, with it's small internal memory, you may also want to splurge and buy her an additional SD memory card for more picture taking.

Don't forget to also check out digital photo frames! Kodak's s510 EasyShare Digital Frame allows you to easily view your pictures by simply inserting your memory card. It also includes a remote control, so you can control how your photo slideshow displays. Best yet, order it at the Kodak website and take advantage of their Mother's Day sale - and get a free SD memory card with the purchase of a frame.

Music Players

With mp3 players become more compact and less expensive almost every month, why not buy her one so she can take her favorite music with her on the go? iPod Shuffles are a popular choice, with their tiny size and ability to be engraved. The average Shuffle costs only $40, and can hold about a gigabyte of her beloved tunes. Does she already have an iPod? Then how about buying her a gift certificate to the iTunes store! For only 99 cents apiece, even a $10 gift certificate can buy a full album's worth of songs!
