In the spirit of looking good and practical, Aerial7 offers the Sound Disk Beanie with built-in headphones/microphone to work with your iPod, iPhone or Blackberry. Ultra slim speakers are tucked into the beanie offering great sound and keeping your head warm with that perfect knit hat fit! No more worrying about your headphones if you wipe out and you can simply lift the beanie up to hear your friend on the chair lift! The Sound Disk Beanie is not only great for the slopes, but I will use mine while snow blowing the driveway or out shoveling off the deck! For audio specs and colors visit www.aerial7.com

This next product truly sucks! In this case it is a very good thing. Now I would never recommend getting your wife or girlfriend a vacuum for the holidays, however I would consider the Dyson DC31 for the man in your life. I know what you are saying, a vacuum for a man? Well this is the perfect handheld vac for around the workshop, for the man cave or to clean out his car! The design looks like a futuristic laser gun, however it does house the famous Dyson Root Cyclone which gives you over 104,000 RPM to pick-up after the boys come over to watch football or shoot pool. The 22.2 volt lithium rechargeable battery gives you enough power to clean up the mess, and if you need a boost of power, there is a turbo button to give you more suction!

I love this time of season, because I try to mix up the products for both golfers and non-golfers. I know many people who read West Coast Golfer who are secretly shopping for themselves, but are also looking for some great items for someone special. If that special someone travels a lot or is on the road for their job, a great present for them would be the Acer Aspire One netbook. At 2.8 pounds and 1 inch thick this Acer Aspire is perfect for anyone who travels. No longer do you need a big bulky laptop to give you the access to information and connection to email and the Internet that will let you stay in touch. When it comes to performance, the Acer Aspire One is powered by the Intel® Atom processor, and has a massive 160 gig hard drive! The 11.6 inch screen provides 720p HD video which is great for viewing documents, photos or video clips. Of course when it comes to a laptop computer, connectivity is a must. The Acer Aspire One has built-in wi-fi and Bluetooth adapters which connects you on-line quickly. Available in a four different colors the Acer Aspire One laptop would be the perfect present for someone who is looking for performance and portability. Check out the Acer Aspire One at us.acer.com.

Looking good on the course is only half the benefit of the TAG Heuer 27° Air Sunglasses. These sun glasses are so light weight, there are times I forget I have them on. TAG Heuer 27° Air Sunglasses are optimally designed for different sports. Their brown precision lens is optimized for golfers to give you better vision and protection on the course. I love these glasses because even on cloudy days, looking through the 27° Air sunlasses brightens up the day. The invisible hinges are not only cool, but comfortable and they dont slide during your swing. Better vision around the green as well is an added benefit when the time comes to hit that crucial putt. I wear my TAG Heuer 27° Air Sunglasses during every round, and every time I am out an about. Stylish and performance set the TAG Heuers apart from their competition.

For those who waited in line tonight, there is nothing is better than getting the boys together to play some Madden NFL 10 or NCAA Football 10 by EA SPORTS on the Xbox 360. If you are going to a Big 10 college or your local state college, one cool thing about NCAA Football 10 is you can create your own team and put it in the game with NCAA Football 10 TeamBuilder. Lets face it, my Fitchburg State College Eagles football team would never make it into an EA SPORTS game until now. I went online to http://teambuilder.easports.com and created my team, customizing the players, strategy, colors, field and everything you can think of to make a custom team.

NASCAR Fans, start your engine and hear Dale Earnhardt Jr. say, You drive, Ill ride shotgun! The RightWay Spotter GPS Navigator, Dale Jr. Edition features Dale Earnhardt Jr.s voice which will navigate you through every turn you make. Dale Jr. gave you the steering wheel and became your personal spotter to guide you turn by turn to your destination. Dale Jr. also added some of his personal favorite destinations as points of interest (note to Dale Jr. you have to come up to New Hampshire more often!) so you can easily find NASCAR destinations or Dale Jrs favorite hang-outs. Once the novelty of hearing Dale Jr. wears off, the RightWay Spotter is a very good beginner GPS. This is the perfect GPS for someone to start with as there arent a lot of complicated features to overwhelm you. There are some GPS units that require constant downloads, or yearly subscriptions that you need to be a rocket scientist to learn how to operate. The RightWay Spotter is very easy to set-up, and Dale Jr. will be guiding you in no time. I was very impressed with the recalculation should you miss a turn. My previous GPS would tell me to make a legal u-turn for several minutes before it would recalculate. The RightWay Spotter, Dale Jr. edition GPS quickly re-calculated the new route putting me back on track. You can easily change if you want the GPS to calculate the shortest distance by time or mileage. No offense to Dale Jr. fans, but he only lasted about a month as my spotter before I went to one of the other voices in the system. Overall the RightWay Spotter GPS Navigator, Dale Jr. Edition was a step up from my older GPS unit and is a nice unit for any NASCAR fan looking for a way to get to the track. The best feature is Dale Jr. will actually tell you to take a right turn instead of all left turns! For more information on the RightWay Spotter GPS Navigator, Dale Jr. Edition visit them at www.rightwaygps.com.
