BLACKBERRY 7100T
MOBILE PHONE

The DigitalLife electronics show named this phone one of the best of 2004 for bringing together a full-featured phone with a leading mobile e-mail platform. The device not only lets you send and receive e-mails, it also offers a high-resolution LCD screen and a familiar QWERTY-style keyboard.
DELL AXIM X50V

The young multi-tasker would be lost without his or her PDA (personal digital assistant) to keep track of work and personal matters, and one of the most fully equipped devices on the market is Dell's new Axim. It is a pocket PC with a Windows Media Player 10 built in. The device also provides easy Wi-Fi networking, voice recording capabilities, and a 3.7-inch VGA screen with super-sharp resolution.
POCKETJET 200 PRINTER
$289.95
As small as a ruler and just an inch high, this Pentax Technologies mini printer lets you print a hard copy from your PDA or laptop. The compact device churns out laser-quality prints at a rate of up to three pages per minute. It's handy for printing out a term paper while on spring break or a resume right before an interview.
MOMA Perpetual Calendar
$34.95
When starting a serious job or internship, it's nice to add a little style and personality to your desktop while remaining practical. This work of modern art designed by Gideon Dagan uses magnetic balls to indicate the month and day. It's a great conversation piece and it shows you have a little class.
