Low-Price Gifts for High-Tech Lovers
If you’re overwhelmed by shopping for technology items for the gadget lovers on your holiday list, rest assured that you can still find fun, unique high-tech gifts that won't break the bank.
“Phones, tablets and cameras are nice but pretty standard,” said personal technology expert and Yahoo Tech founder David Pogue. “Online, you can find a plethora of smaller, fun, offbeat gadgets and gizmos that can help you give the tech geek on your list a gift to remember.”
With the holiday shopping season wrapping up soon, you can make your purchasing easier with resources such as Yahoo Tech (www.yahoo.com/tech), which makes holiday gifting easier with detailed trends and product reviews, as well as suggestions for gifts that fit the needs of everyone on your list.
