Graduation gift for a man
OR I am thinking of buying my husband a new camera for graduation, since he said throughout our trip that he needs a new camera. I don't know much about cameras, though. I would want a digital, but don't know if he only wants the smaller ones that can fit into pockets, rather than the ones with big zoom lenses. Any tips on buying a good digital camera?

Maybe...but I can't remember what! What was it? I think people said something like a nice stethescope, but I didn't like that. I don't really want something medical-related, either. The briefcase idea isn't so good since he's going to be a resident, so he won't have to have a briefcase. I think I'll let him get his own palm pilot (they might have to have a specific brand for the hospital). |

| There are some great watches out there that are unbelievable for what you get for the money. If you had a price range I could give you my thoughts. |
| If he is going to be a resident get him a 3 year supply of Red Bull and Powerbars. |

Try 5 years! He chose a long specialty! See, the thing with the watches is that he wants some $5000 watches and I couldn't get him any NEAR that amount, and I don't know if he wants something in between, ya know? |
| My vote is for a Littman Cardioscope then, they do cost about $300 but mine was given to me for a graduation gift and I've had it over 20 years. |
| no, i called my girlfriend who is a doctor in town and then i posted it in the chat room...but i cant remember either what she came up with.....i thought you were writing it all down steph...
and people get your minds out of the gutter!  |

While making a point in rounds he'll raise his hand and accidently smash it into the siderail of the bed. 
Unless he has had the watch repairology rotation, it'll be a total loss. Save the expensive watch for wearing it at home and special occassions.  |
| The younger docs at our hospital seem to really be into the palm pilots. They have TONS of medical reference stuff loaded into them. Ours don't need to be a certain kind. |
| How about an ipod or another MP3 player? Steve is really into the one we have. I may buy him something better for his birthday which is on May 12 |

He already has an ipod and really won't have time for it probably next year anyway. This is so hard. I want to get him something with the traditional meaning and value of a gift like a watch or cufflinks, or something that can be engraved, yet at the same time have it be something useful or interesting that he'll actually like... |
