What to get for the person who has everything

Bet you they don't have one of THESE.

It's a radio! It's a TV! It's a ... flashlight? Also a mosquito repeller and emergency siren.

All I want to know is, why doesn't it have a DVD player? What kind of lame survival equipment doesn't have a DVD player?

I saw them in a department store electronics section while doing Christmas shopping tonight, and when I got home I had to look 'em up on the Internet and share the fun. And here I used to think the world's most amusing piece of survival gear was the solar-powered flashlight. (Yes, they exist.)

Re: If it doesn't have a reusable toothpick, its worthless to me.

And can you kill a man with it by beating him mercilessly when the food runs out and he looks like a hamburger making cracks about your girl?

Then you need a Sterno-powered grill, which I notice it also doesn't have.
