thread brothers, i need help...what to get the wife unit that has everything? (well, almost everything)...i'm close to punting and going the jewelry route, but that has been so "done" in my house...

edit - oh, yeah...this is a double whammy...xmas present then her birthday is Jan 1st...

Does she have a Kindle or other e-reader yet? New smartphone? Digital camera?

Ooo...an iPad would be a good one. My wife absolutely loves hers...and no, she's not technically adept at all. But unlike her laptop, she actually plays around with the iPad and learns how to do things.

Kindle, no...smartphone, check...digital camera, check...i think she's using the iPad as a ebook reader...

When in doubt, make her something. Doesn't have to be fancy or even useful. She will appreciate it.

yeah, but that would involve some work on my part... [;)] plus, my knitting skills aren't quite up to snuff these days...

my wife has almost every gadget known to man (watch it, sprior! [:-])...we call her "gadget girl"...she has an iPad, and loves her's as well...keep 'em coming boys...something is bound to stick...

and BTW, i tried clothes once...what a disaster...wrong sizes, wrong colors, wrong styles...geesh women are picky [;)]

[anarchyintheuk]

Going back to biblical times I don't think any man has ever bought clothes for a woman and it been deemed a success.

[Nikademus]

thats because in biblical times they did not have Electric Socks.

[Chickenboy]

I beg to differ, anarchy. My purchases of exciting underthings for my girlfriend (now wife) were quite 'successful'. [;)]

PS. Sorry about those men of moo last night...[:(]

[Chickenboy]

KEM-what hobbies does your wife have (that you can tell us about [;)])? It may help to narrow down a bit.

Gadget girl, eh? Well, this Wired article might have some use for you.

Don't know if that qualifies for clothing. Anyhow, the gift in your case is more for you than her. [;)]

Thank for the condolences. It helps to think Philadelphians have to wake up in Philadelphia.

Be nice to the snow out there.

A suitcase for computer, or for I-Pad, well, for something she has, but in leather. Spanish style ( Sevilian ).

Or, if you lokk for something new, a precious stone. Not as Jewel, but as ornemental (Geode or something like that)

????

[Mynok]

That's an excellent idea there by gladiatt: a nice iPad case. My wife got a really nice one from Dooney & Bourke:

KEM-after a few years hiatus, my wife is planning on resuming English equitation / equestrian activities.  I know she enjoys the activity, but don't know enough about her preferences for-say-a saddle.  I'm going to get her a gift certificate to a nearby equestrian tack and clothing store so she can try on new breaches, boots and the like-kind of 'meeting her half way', if you will.
 
So, having said all this, what recreation does she enjoy that you can support in the form of a gift?
