1.   AR Drone:

AR-Drone

This thing has four fans and flies pretty much like a helicopter. Best of all it can be controlled using an iPhone. Besides the copter also has two cameras one facing down and the other forward, so you can see where the thing goes, or even spy a little.   It’s a perfect gift for the grown up or even teenagers. Some info is already available at the Biggtech website. Cost is around $300. For more info hit the Parrot website.

2.  iPad:

Need we say more? The iPad, the one that Apple launched a few months back, the one which weighs 1.5 lbs and measures 9.56” x 7.47” x 0.5”, the one which has taken our world by storm, the one that I am dying to buy. Check out the Apple website if you still haven’t.
