Before I start, let me just say I have no financial interest or connection with the sellers of this product but I thought I'd share with you an idea for an inexpensive last minute gift.
Bluetooth Speaker
I bought one of these for myself this summer and I ended up having to get two more for my daughters, such was it's usefulness.
For anyone with a smart phone, it's a great wee tool. It's the size of a small transistor radio and will play the music you have stored on your phone by using its Bluetooth capability.
I always like to have a bit of music while I'm in the bath or shower and this is so much better than my phone as the speaker is more powerful and has a surprisingly good tone and volume. My favourite App is Tunein Radio and there's nothing better in a morning than to listen to some classic rock station while I'm getting ready for work. Earlier in the year, my youngest blew the speaker in her iphone because she was always playing it full volume, so this has been ideal for her.
If you read the spec you'll see it doesn't stop there, The Psyc also has an FM radio built in, a micro sd card slot which makes it a basic mp3 player and an excellent bonus feature is that when the Atom's batteries are fully charged, you can plug your phone into the Psyc and it will even charge your phone from its substantial battery.... ideal for outdoorsy people who may need to charge their phone in an emergency.
Like I said, I have no vested interested in telling you about this, other than I've found it brilliant for my own use. There are plenty of other people selling it on Ebay, the link above just appears to be one of the cheapest places to get it from (other sellers are available yada yada).
If you do buy one though, don't forget to thank me 
Oh.... and it does have one extra bonus feature which is almost worth the money on it's own...
It talks to you in a Korean accent....
