My dad wants a dremel, what kind should I get?

My dad said he wanted a dremel for Father's day. What kind should I get? I looked at their site, and I'm looking at the MultiPro line. What is the approximate cost of a single speed, two speed, and variable speed dremel? And where can I get them?

What is this exactly?

but be sure to get an extra battery pack with it too

Home Depot. Lowes. Even Walmart/Kmart.

Good sets run at least $60. Get a variable speed one. Walmart sells a Black and Decker model that's about twice as powerful as a Dremel for $60. I bought one and I'm happy with it. Of course I abused a Dremel to death first - took about 5 years. Either are good products.

sometimes you can catch the one at Sears on sale...
got mine..with all the toys and flex shaft for $60.
Father's Day is coming up..should be on sale then
