15 Gadget Gifts to avoid in Holiday 2008 Shopping

There are of course plenty of gadgets on the market that are not the wisest choice for a gift. OCModShop has compiled 15 products to avoid this shopping season.
Quote from the guide: "This anti-guide is targeted to a wide range of people. Some are parents who are out of touch with their teenagers (and twenty-somethings). Others are grandparents who think the latest trend-knockoff on QVC would make a perfect gift. Some are girlfriends who just don't know what their technology-enabled boyfriend would want. Since the economy isn't doing so hot, then why spend money on crap that will find its way to a landfill? Here are some of the things that should be avoided at all costs this holiday season."
