X-mas gifts

Evan · #1 12-19-2005, 12:20 PM

I am at a loss for gift ideas this year. I just need to get something for my parents, but I can't think of anything that doesn't suck (like a tie or perfume or something really boring). Post anything interesting/creative that you bought someone this year.

What did you get?
Who was it for?
Where did you get it?
How much did it cost?

I do not intend on buying anyone anything.

Nothing personal, but, given the OP's subject and intentions, this is easily the most worthless reply I've ever seen on 2+2.

If that's what you were going for, congrats.

My mom asked me to get her a bluetooth earpiece for her cell phone.

I like this idea because my Mom uses her cell phone w/ her earpiece a ton. However, I'm pretty sure her phone doesn't have bluetooth built in. Is there any product out there that makes bluetooth available for non-bluetooth phones? I'm thinking something like a trasmitter that plugs into the regular earpiece jack and then works with a regular bluetooth earpice. I jsut gogled for this quickly but couldn't find anything. Anyone ever see something like this?

EDIT: Found one

I think you can into an SD card slot. Some phones have this I think (but not many). Easier to upgrade the phone?
