The new ParentDish: helping raise kids of all ages

Oprah chooses iPod 5G for her Favorite Things

oprahOprah has added the iPod 5G to her list of Favorite Things for this holiday season. This doesn't come as a huge surprise since various iPods have been featured on previous Oprah Favorite Things lists.

I agree with Ms. O that the iPod 5G is a great gift item, but if you're going to spend 300 bucks on a holiday gift, why not personalize the gift by purchasing or transfering music to the iPod? You can choose albums or make a mix-tape of music for that special person.

I listen to Radio Wazee and then purchase tunes I like from the iTMS by choosing the "find on iTunes" link under the current song. To make a personalized choice I choose a theme (like California or Rain or Silly Sounding Phrases) and find as many new songs with the theme in the lyrics or title.

Take this present to the best-gift-under-the-tree level by choosing (or making) a case that fits with the giftee's personality! Move over Oprah, TUAW's one-upped your gift idea.
