As you know, or may not know depending on how you choose to celebrate this time of year, NOW is the time for some serious Holiday Shopping for the vast majority of us here in the U.S. of A.  Money is spent, wish books are studied, toys are wrapped, gadgets are lusted for.  You know the drill.

So, in light of the fact that the gadget and tech world is a virtual mine-field of hits and misses, what do you buy?  Lucky for you, me, your friends and just about every other frantic holiday shopper, I found a great Holiday Gift Guide over at Phone Scoop that goes over just about every demographic you could possibly imagine for the perfect cell phone for that perfect person in Your life.  From 16 year olds to senior citizens to your text message-aholics to your phone photographers, they are all covered and some great suggestions are given for each and every one of them.

Happy Monday friends.  Hopefully your belly is still recovering from the overload of turkey, pie, potatoes, pie, and more pie. Hopefully also your wallet is not empty from Black Friday and all the amazing spending people seem to do.

That said, if you’re a people in Europe right now, you might be gearing up to spend even more money as the Apple iPhone is now, yes, unlocked in Europe too.  Hold onto your hats as things could once again get interesting overseas when it comes to the controversial, at times, iPhone.

According to the article I just read, T-Mobile will be selling the unlocked Apple iPhone for a whopping 999 Euros (roughly $1477) while being usable on any service provider the user sees fit.  Here’s the kicker, the locked, T-Mobile version of the iPhone, sold with a 2 year contract TO T-Mobile will only set you back 399 Euros, ($590 American buckaroos).  Needles to say, that’s a STEEP price to pay for the unlocked version, is it not?

At any rate, any overseas readers of this blog, sound off, what do you think about the price hike?  What would you do?
