| THE YOUNG AND HIP DAD This guy puts family first, style second. Hes not too old to appreciate a good video game from time to time, and he has as much consumer-tech knowledge as anyone. This might make him a discerning tech user, but dont worry: Hell be happy with any of these gift ideas. |

| THE SPORTY AND OUTDOORSY DAD The sporty dad is intent on staying up with his favorite teams, whether that means getting a game score delivered to his phone or radio, or watching the game in person. If dads active, chances are the family is too, so a good camera that can capture action shots will definitely come in handy. |

| THE EXECUTIVE TRAVELER DAD This guys job has him jetting around the world, spending a lot of time in airport lobbies and on planes. Hell appreciate gadgets that help him in his work, but let him relax, as well—especially in stressful environs. |
