Great Electronics Gift Ideas

So many people on your gift giving list and so little time, so what gifts are surefire winners every season? Electronics are one niche of gifts that are extremely popular every single year. It seems like every holiday season, there is one electronics gift, whether it be the latest gaming console or a video game that has people lined up around the block and in the wee hours of the morning to grab one. Here are some ideas for great electronics gift ideas:

Gaming Console

If a family is on your gift giving list, a gaming console might just be the best option to make them all happy. A gaming console allows everyone to get involved and play games together, whether it be a game where you all play instruments in a rock band or whether you play tennis against each other in your living room. In addition, there are hundreds of video games that will cater to kids and adults of just about any age and interest, so it's a gift that truly is for the whole family. Choose from the XBOX 360, Nintendo Wii or the PlayStation 3.

Portable Gaming Device

There's two main portable gaming devices these days, the Nintendo DS and DSi and the Sony PSP. Each offers many games and a different experience. For kids, the Nintendo DS or DSi is a great choice, since they offer a virtual truckload of games that cater to children and teens. The DS is also a great choice for women and girls of any age, since there are many casual and female oriented games available. The PSP is a great choice for teen males, since it offers more hardcore gaming titles.

MP3 Player

Who doesn't want a new MP3 player just about every year? Whether someone has broken, scratched or dropped their MP3 player or whether they just want to take advantage of the latest technology, like video capability and gaming, a new MP3 player is always a great gift. Choose from the Apple iPod line, Microsoft Zune, Sandisk Sansa and many others, though iPod still seems to be the king of the media players.

Flexible Keyboard

A flexible keyboard is a surprising addition to this list, yet it's more practical than you think. A flexible keyboard is a perfect gift for someone who spends a lot of time on the Internet, especially people who enjoy online games. People tend to eat and drink a lot in front of their computers, and naturally, spills and accidents tend to happen. With a flexible keyboard, the cleanup is super easy and safe.

Netbook

The latest trend in computers and laptops is the netbook. A netbook is basically a laptop computer that doesn't have an optical drive, instead relying on a media card reader and internet connection to send and receive files. In addition, a netbook has a smaller screen and keyboard, so it is significantly less weight and size in comparison to a regular notebook. This makes it easy to use as a second computer and to take along to class or to work without weighing you down. It fits much more easily into a backpack or purse.
