Default Need a Gift Idea

So I posted something similar in the Books/Publications forum, but I want to see what the others say here since it is more specific.

My sister is still waiting for me to give her an idea for a birthday gift. My birthday was a little over a month ago, so it's a long time waiting.

I like Cardplayer mag., but I can read the articles on the internet, so is it worth it? I don't know how often I'd go somewhere where my laptop can't go where I'd also have time to read.

I have Theory of Poker and HoH 1 and 2. Last night I just started reading The Psychology of Poker. I have a couple other books, but I'm looking for a gift of some sort that will help me out.

I am a subscriber to PXF and I could have my sister buy me a month or 2 worth of a subscription, but I think that is too easy and I'd like to have something that I don't have now.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

The new Professional NL Hold'em book isn't out yet, but it looks promising.

The FTP-TE book is pretty good.

I went w/ a friend to pick up his Harry Potter book until 2:00 AM the other night and read Mason's Poker Essays while sitting in Barnes and Noble. It was good as well.

Even if you don't play limit hold'em I think SSHE (Miller, Sklansky, & Malmuth) is a fantastic book. But I'd put it low on your list if you don't plan on playing limit hold'em ever.
