Cool Gift of the Day

What it is:
A sweet MP3 player, no bigger than an ordinary sugar cube.
Why we love it:
Here at Surprise.com we've had a lot to say about the iPod. We've presented you with, maybe
one or
two iPod themed gifts, and we realized that we may be presenting the impression that we think the iPod is the only great MP3 player out there. Not so! If you're looking for something small (really, really small), to give to a music fan in your life, the iPod is by far not the only good choice. This clever little 1 GB player from MobiBLU is selling like hotcakes and it's not hard to see why. It's teensy-weensy, but despite that is packed with great features like an FM radio receiver and recorder, a sharp and crystal clear display screen, a voice recorder and more. All of this in a package less than 1 inch cubed and weighing less than an ounce. It's a little pricy for a stocking stuffer, but still small enough to fit in the toe. The interface is just like a Windows computer, so Windows users may be more comfortable with it. Add all these features up and you have one of our favorite MP3 player picks.
Who we'd give it to:
Teens, athletes, exercise nuts, Lilliputians, techno geeks, Mac haters.
Where to get it:
From
Walmart for an itsy-bitsy, teeny-weenie $129.72
