The nano seems like a really good idea for a female college student. Make sure you get a pretty case.

yeah... i think that a nice piece of jewelry would be better than an ipod... does SHE like you giving her techy gifts? Or do you just *think* she likes you giving her techy gifts?

Agreed. If you insist on something like Nano, put a romantic spin on it, like pre-loading it with some romantic songs.

Could you engrave it with a romantic message?

Exactly, for present for your gf you should play to what she likes and wants.

yeah, you could, but, I don't know the personality of the GF... she could be into eletronics as much as the OP, OR NOT...
You could engrave a line of "your song" or something, but you have to be careful to not get to cheesy. thats the worry.
I think its sweet that he is thinking about something like this... but, wouldnt it be better for her to wear a wonderfully simple bracelet or necklace all the time and each time she sees it in the mirror, or touches it, she will remember that he got it for her?

Yes it's overpriced, but girls LOVE to see that stupid box....

PS... if you don't want to go tiffany's... check out bluenile.com
they have some really nice pieces that look almost exactly like tiffanys. :)

I could never be with a girl who demanded tiffany's. I'm glad my girlfriend enjoy's tech gadgets, but she also enjoys jewelry. She sometimes gets upset when i splurge on gifts for her (like nice jewelry)

That being said - if you're in this for the long run, and your girlfriend likes jewelry a ring, or bracelet/necklace are definitely in order. I know my girlfriend loves the ring I got her for our 1 year anniversary (3.5 years now) I'm sure your girlfriend would love a nice ring to show off to her girlfriends :)

Great suggestion lola - i'll have to keep it in mind.
