Gadgets Blog » Seasonal Spotlight: Portable Media

Gift-giving season is right around the corner, which means we are in the throes right now of picking the perfect gifts. What can you do to make the holiday cheerful and bright for your friends and family? Give them a taste of your own love for technology with a portable media gadget.

Portable media means any gadget that can play entertaining audio or video or games on the road. The packaging and object itself is lightweight and pocket (or sometimes, backpack) size, so you don’t have to worry about the extra bulk weighing you down. Portable media is perfect for long waits in the airport, kids in the backseat of a long car ride, or grandmothers or grandfathers who want to read, watch videos, or listen to music in bed. Here are some of the top portable media objects to get you thinking about holiday gifts:

9″ Compact Television: $144.99

This 9-inch LCD screen has built in speakers so you can watch videos on the road!
Kindle Wireless Reading Device (6″ Display, Global Wireless, Latest Generation): $259.00

A perfect portable reading device, the best and only of it’s kind. Perfect for the avid bookworm that can’t fit 5 novels in their carry-ons.
