Unique Gifts

With the holidays fast approaching it seems it’s never too early to start thinking about the perfect gift. If you’re looking for something different, here are some ideas:

T-Mobile Sidekick Communicator
The T-Mobile Sidekick Communicator is a GSM style cell phone, but also, if you flip up the screen, a mobile communicator. You can do instant messaging, email, browse the web, and with a special add-on, you can even take pictures. The Sidekick sells for around $200. www.t-mobile.com

Pfaff Creative 2140
Pfaff does high-end sewing machines like nobody’s business. The Creative 2140 is their highest end model yet because it actually hooks up to the Internet. You can download patterns and it has a touch screen on the front that guides you through the process of sewing. Creative on-screen customizing and color changing makes it possible to play with your stitches, alphabets, or designs on the multi-color touch screen. You can see what your design looks like before you take the time to put it on fabric. This is a pricey high-end model so you will want to go to your sewing center locally to find out more about the Pfaff 2140. www.pfaff.com

Cambridge Soundworks MegaTheater 505
One of our favorite products this holiday season is Cambridge Soundworks MegaTheater 505. For only $700 it comes complete with a built-in DVD player, Dolby Digital processor with DTS, 5-speakers, a powered sub-woofer and a 450-watt amplifier. This is one of the best home theater systems in a box we've heard-- in fact, it embarrasses many home theater systems that cost up to $5000. And for only $700, this is one of the greatest steals in the home theater market. www.hifi.com
