thinking about buying an amazon AirTV stick for my parents. Looks like it would be easy enough for them to use. Or do you guys think there's a better option? Roku?

LG G3 and 2 Transcend Class 10 U 1 Micro SD cards. A pair of Symphonized ear buds, they sound great.

If you already have Prime so you're paying the $20? Why not? Even if they hate it, you lost less than going out to lunch.

If you're paying the full $40 - do they use Prime, or other Amazon services? Do they watch HBO? (currently not supported on the Fire Stick) The Roku stick is around the same price so it comes down to what they'll use it with. If it's just Netflix, seems like you could toss a coin.

does 150 iPads count? :awe:

Last fun thing was a OnePlus One. Its not bad but I'm hoping to score a Note 4 sometime soon.

Others:

Big honking flashlight. Because I got tired of people always asking me for a flashlight and never having one:

Needed an MFC printer for work. Brother has never steered me wrong. I really like this printer.

Bought a new blood sugar monitor for lil rudeguy that was supposed to sync with Android phones. Turns out its iOS only. Sucks but its cool if you are an Apple guy and have diabetes.

Yep! And I know you do one note syncing over OneDrive which to me is nerd'vana. I can take notes on the surface during meetings and while out on the floor. Then through the magic of the intratubes it's synced up to my desktop PC onenote when I get back.

Yay!

Oh and if your handwriting isn't absolutely atrocious it's also fully searchable in onenote too. Badass!

Sure do. It syncs to my iPhone with no issues, handwriting and all. It's great!

Even better, I take pics of my expense receipts in OneNote and it makes them searchable too.
