Dads always love new technology, so why not upgrade him to one of the latest BlackBerry 7 smartphones? RIM launched quite a few BlackBerry 7 devices, but the ones that stand out for the dads out there are the BlackBerry Bold 9900, Torch 9860, Torch 9810, or even the all touch BlackBerry Curve 9380. If your dad already upgraded to a new BlackBerry, the BlackBerry PlayBook may just be the gift Dad was looking for.
