Starting to really hate Christmas. Anyone involved in advertising or marketing at this time of year should follow the advice of the late great Bill Hicks. :cool:

Take advantage of the dollar rate while your over in NYC and get him something there!
Pier 17 at South Street Seaport in NY has a good gadget type shop. Can't remember the name though.
Also check out J & R Music for gadgets and other techy stuff. It's a big store near the Brooklyn Bridge and City Hall.
