Mother’s Day is fast approaching (Sunday, May 8^th)!  What is the best gadget for mom?  Well, if you’re thinking of gifting mom a gadget, now’s the time to place your order online!  Wondering what to get?  I’ve got you covered!  Here’s a list of my 5 picks for the hottest gadgets for mom this Mother’s Day.

1. Apple iPad 2: it’s simple to use and requires no prior knowledge of computers –great for less tech savvy moms.  If mom likes to read, she can download her favorite books and use it as an eReader.  You can get the iPad engraved with a special, personalized Mother’s Day message from Apple’s website. (starting at $499) – I OWN ONE AND LOVE IT!
2. Amazon Kindle: If you think mom would enjoy an eReader but you’re not spending $500 on a Mother’s Day gift, you can opt for a Kindle from Amazon.  It has a paper-like Pearl electronic-ink display (great even under bright sunlight), a one month battery life, and its ultra-light weight, at only 8.5 ounces. (starting at $114)

Will the launch of the iPhone 5 come in Fall of 2011?  That’s the rumor!

It’s well known that Apple releases a new version of the iPhone every summer but with the release of the iPhone 4 on Verizon just a few months ago, it’s likely the device will be delayed until the Fall. Here’s why: 

A new App for the iPhone by Hipstamatic brings back the look, feel, unpredictable beauty, and fun of plastic toy cameras from the past.  Before taking a picture, you can change your lens, flash or film with the swipe of your finger.  Each option creates a unique touch, so you can mix and match to your favorite combo for the exact picture effect you want. Digital Photography Never Looked So… Analog.
