Holiday Gift Idea: The Beatles USB Discography

Topic:

Alright, so the remastered Beatles discography still isn't available on iTunes. Honestly, at this point it looks like that might never happen. Thankfully, EMI and Apple Corps have found a way to bring us digital copies of everyone's favorite British foursome. Sure, $280 for an Apple-shaped USB stick filled FLAC and MP3 versions of all the remastered CDs seems a bit pricey but, as Gizmodo notes that's only $60 more than you pay for the new CD set.

For you audiophiles out there, the FLAC quality is listed as 44.1Khz 24 bit, and the MP3s are 320 Kbps. Now, the bad news. 'Only' 30,000 of these special edition sets are being made. They go on sale November 8th, but you can pre-order now at TheBeatles.com.

Gift Tip 6: Asus Skype Touch AiGuru SV1

Topic:

Skype is an application that runs on your PC with a webcam, microphone, and speakers or headphones. However if you rely on Skype heavily for everyday communications or it is a business tool used around the office, then a standalone unit which isn't connected to a PC may be your preferred option. Alongside handsets that look like standard wireless home phones there is a new option from Asus that combines the best of Skype into a single unit. The Asus Skype Touch AiGuru SV1T combines a 7-inch touch screen (800 x 480 resolutions) with webcam and voice communication. Effectively it is a complete Skype solution away from your PC screen.

Top 10 Tech Gifts For Christmas NOT To Buy Now

Topic:

Over the weekend I published the Top 10 Tech Gifts For Christmas To Buy Now, because they are either hard to find or are likely not to fall in price. Today I am offering up the top 10 tech gifts I suggest you don't buy right now and wait until later. For some the reason is that new versions will be announced and for others it makes sense to wait for great Black Friday 2009 Deals.

Take for instance the Apple iMac. You need to wait as new Apple iMac are likely going to be announced soon. Same is true for the low-end plastic MacBook that is also rumored to be updated and offered at a lower price. Read more

Top 10 Tech Gifts For Christmas To Buy Now

Topic:

There are basically three strategies for buying Christmas gifts: Start really early like Summer, bet on Black Friday and Thanksgiving Deals or hunt the mall on the 24th of December.
It is not Summer anymore and I actually have ten hot gifts that you can and some you actually should buy now without being called crazy. If you see a Zhu Zhu Hamster for around 10 bucks somewhere just buy it and hide it in the cellar - it does not need food and does not poop. Zhu Zhu Pets are an example of a holiday gift that is EHTF (extremely hard to find). Read more
