RadioShack Summer Technology Preview/Gifts for Dads and Grads

Earlier this month I attended an event at the new RadioShack flagship store in Santa Monica. The updated RadioShack stores are bright, colorful, and open.

These are perfect graduation gifts for kids heading off to college. There are never enough outlets in a dorm room! Here we have the Quirky wrap around extension cord and Quirky flexible power strip (available in multiple colors)

Track your exercise, calories, and sleep with fitbit flex (plus you can change colors with fitbit accessory pack) , or Jawbone UP

My dad and stepmom do not have DVR (crazy!) so I am thinking about getting them a Roku. There is also Apple TV which I haven't used but my sister and brother in law have. There are so many fun gadgets these days: wireless extenders, signal boosters (if you spend a lot of time driving for work this is a must!), and TV/video/movie streamers.

This Philips SHOQBOX Bluetooth Portable Speaker is perfect for perfect for outdoor adventurists! It is splashproof and drop proof with a rubber casing that is a specialized tough material to withstand drops and rough use. You can use the metal loop/carabiner at the top to attach it to your backpack or bicycle

This JBL Voyager Bluetooth System with Detachable Speaker is awesome. Main dock unit features 3" subwoofer and recharge dock for portable speaker. It has built-in speakerphone and a 5-hour rechargeable battery It also works as a portable speaker you can carry. You simply unclick and detach the Bluetooth wireless speaker from the main docking system 

USB port for charging smartphones and tablets

This JBL Pulse Portable Bluetooth Speaker was hands down my favorite of the night. I think this would be a fun high school graduation or housewarming present. The tag line is: "Bring your music to life, with sound you can see." Wirelessly stream music from any Bluetooth enabled device. Control color, brightness or download more light themes with your JBL app to keep the party jumping. You can adjust the light show depending on your mood (something soft and calming for studying, bright for a party)

And we can't forget the "toys": RC Bladerunner HeliQuad , Porsche, and more
