I know, it doesn’t seem possible, but it is that time again so… back by popular demand…
 ”On the first day of Christmas my true geek gave to me” …yup, you know the rest, so read on as I begin with the first six days… to be continued on 1 December… don’t worry, that still gives you plenty of time to shop!

On the first day… iLuv iMM153BLK Dual Alarm Clock with Bed Shaker for your iPod

• Shaker alarm accessory vibrates your pillow or bed
• Built-in speakers allow you to hear your music with depth and clarity
• Play and charge your iPod on the universal iPod dock
• Large, easy-to-read display. Programmable presets for 10 FM radio stations
• Compatible with iPod touch (1st/2nd/3rd/4th generation), iPod classic, iPod nano (1st/2nd/3rd/4th/5th/6th generation) and iPod with video

On the second day… A Very Special Heart comes in a necklace or key chain option, and houses a hidden USB device for connection to any computer. It holds medical conditions, medications, and allergies information. Non-emergency information like passports, social security cards, and birth certificates can be included with an owner-only password. It translates its stored information in 7 languages. This eye-catching filigree heart comes in rhodium silver or 18k yellow gold.

On the third day… Wacom Bamboo Pen and Touch, this sleek tablet has both pen and touch inputs, making it ideal for designers and artists. It has a 4.9 x 3.4 inch touch area and a 5.8 x 3.6 inch pen area. Included are Adobe PhotoShop Elements and Nik Color Efex Pro programs. And as it’s relatively inexpensive ($99) it’s a great low-cost investment for beginners and professionals alike.

On the fourth day… Crosley Radio Memory Master II (CR2413A), the  Memory Master II is a turntable device that allows you to record vinyl and cassettes to CD without the hassle of adapters or complicated computer savvy. Recording from older media is as simple as a push of a button. With a built-in radio, it’s a great nostalgia device for listening to old music, too. It supports 3 different record speeds: 33 1/3, 45, and 78 rpm. It’s also USB enabled for a computer connection.

On the fifth day… Amazon Kindle Fire… Movies, apps, games, music, reading and more, plus Amazon's revolutionary, cloud-accelerated web browser.

• 18 million movies, TV shows, songs, magazines, and books
• Amazon Appstore - thousands of popular apps and games
• Ultra-fast web browsing - Amazon Silk
• Free cloud storage for all your Amazon content
• Vibrant color touchscreen with extra-wide viewing angle
• Fast, powerful dual-core processor
• Amazon Prime members enjoy unlimited, instant streaming of over 10,000 popular movies and TV shows

Finally, on the sixth day… Sensor-laden SensoGlove helps you make smarter decisions than Tiger Woods. You scoff, but it's true. Do you honestly think Tiger Woods has the luxury of looking down at his golf glove while on the Masters' greens and seeing if his grip is too tight? Indeed he doesn't, nor will he ever, if we understand anything about PGA regulations.

Germany's own Sensosolutions has just revealed what it's calling the planet's first "digital golf glove," with the $89 SensoGlove boasting a handful of sensors that "continuously read the user's grip pressure." In real-time, users are shown that data on the sweat-proof 1.2-inch LED monitor, and it's even capable of outputting information via aural commands. Put simply, it can give you a warning if you're exceeding your target grip pressure level, and it can even show you exactly which fingers are squeezing too tightly.

What it can't show you, however, is just how closely your wife is monitoring your extracurricular phone activities -- but hey, there's always version 2.0!

OK, join the great throngs at the shopping malls... or save that $4+ a gallon and shop the Internet. Sites like Amazon give you free shipping for purchases over $25, and more are catching on and including HI for the free shipping.

I’ll be back Dec 1 with the last six goodies my true geek gave to me, have fun, but be careful out there on the www.

Aloha, Lou
