Welcome to Cnet Top 5 where each time we meet we countdown another hot Cnet list. I'm Tom Merritt. Perhaps it is time for you to give a gift, perhaps to a technology fan in your life. But what gift to give? We can help. Let's countdown the top 5 tech gifts.
At number 5, a camera, yeah you get a crappy 2 or 3 megapixel camera in your phone but we’re talking about real pictures here.
Coming in at number 4, a game console, Wii, XBox, or PS3, whatever your pleasure, you can't disappoint by giving fun. Or if the budget’s a little tight, maybe a Sony PSP or Nintendo DS.
Up to number 3, a laptop, desktops are specially items these days. A laptop says I care about your mobility. And you can get them for a few hundred dollars especially if you go with the stylish netbook.
Sliding in at number 2, smart phone, pretty much every carrier has a sexy looking touch screen phone. They can surf the web, take pictures, play music and videos, find you that perfect someone to spend the rest of your life with. What? They can. Haven’t seen the commercial?
Before we get to number 1, let's look at the top specific models as picked by our editors in the Cnet holiday gift guide. Good stuff there.
Alright, let get to our number 1, the top gift to give or tech to get, at number 1, it’s a TV. With analog transmission being replaced by digital, an HD TV all the rage, there is no better time to make excuses to buy a new TV and whether it’s a 60-inch plasma or just a 32-inch LCD, there's been no better time to give the bargain on a TV that had the exact options you want.
Well that’s it for this edition of Cnet Top 5. You can find more gift recommendations in our holiday gift guide at holiday.cnet.com. I'm Tom Merritt. See you next time.
