Father's Day 2006: Splurge
Dad's worked hard all his life. Thank him with one of these extravagant "toys" he'll use all year round.
Bowflex SelectTech Dumbbells
If Dad likes to keep in shape, but doesn't want to spend the time or money on a gym membership, give him these Bowflex SelectTech Dumbbells. They condense up to 30 separate barbells down to just 2, thanks to a unique design that lets him adjust the weight of each dumbbell - from 5 pounds to 52.5 pounds - by simply rotating a dial. More dumbbells.
Cuisinart Griddler
With four separate cooking options, the Griddler can handle all those steaks, as well as pancakes, sausages, grilled cheese sandwiches, and panini. It helps you prepare more servings of more kinds of food in less time, so you can cook for a crowd - no one has to wait! Simply change the cooking plates and adjust the floating hinge to use the Griddler as a contact grill, panini press, or extra-large double open grill... more
Motorized Pool Lounger
What's better than an inflatable chaise lounge for his pool? An inflatable chaise lounge for your pool that has a motor. Powered by D batteries, the motorized pool lounger has 2 quiet motors - that he controls with joysticks - to move forward, backward, or right or left, so he can get poolside quickly when you brings him a fresh drink. It's got a built-in cup holder and holds dads up to 250 pounds.... more
Actron AutoScanner
Nothing can be more frustrating to the amateur mechanic than having the "check engine" light on the dashboard come on with no way to determine what it means. With Actron's AutoScanner, he can diagnose his beloved ride at home without swallowing his pride and surrendering his hard-earned money to that cursed mechanic. No more spending five hundred dollars to learn that it's time to change the anti-freeze! More auto diagnostic gear.
Celestron SkyScout (2007)
We're used to thinking about GPS in terms of navigating on land. The SkyScout uses it for the heavens. Point this little device at some stars and it'll give you a text and audio description of the constellation - its name, history, mythology, and more. The built-in field guide contains astronomy lessons, night sky tours, biographies, and guides to comets, and the device is easy enough for kids to use.
Philips Digital Photo Frame
The award-winning Philips digital photo display has a full color 7" LCD screen; displays single photos, thumbnails, or slideshows; and stores up to 50 photos. The display works in both landscape and portrait positions. Just plug it in or use the rechargeable battery; no programming or PC required.

TiVo will change your life. Ask any TiVo user. Commercials will be a thing of the past, and you'll be able to watch your favorite shows when you want to. And now, with the new TiVo Series2 DT (Dual Tuner), analog cable subscribers can record 2 shows at once. The device is easy to set up and its 80GB of disc space allows for short-term storage of up to 80 hours of medium to... more
RoboMower
Give Dad his weekends back with the Robomower. He can put this thing down on the ground, push "go," and sit back and relax as it mows hit lawn for him. It's easy to install, environmentally friendly, and contains built-in software to keep it from running amok. If only he could say that about his kids. More lawnmowers.
