SAN FRANCISCO – It’s not too late to get a great tech gift. In fact, some of the year’s coolest products come out in November and December, like the gadgets rounded up by CNET News.Com.

Archos 604 WiFi

The do-everything Archos 604 WiFi is completely stacked with awesome video playback, Web surfing, and other useful features, but the sluggish processor keeps the experience from being totally satisfying.

Asus S6F

Combining swift performance, lengthy battery life, and an eye-catching leather exterior, the Asus S6F is a unique–and uniquely powerful–ultraportable laptop.

Canon PowerShot SD800 IS

A slim, stylish body, a wide-angle lens, very good photo quality, and snappy performance make the Canon PowerShot SD800 IS a great point-and-shoot camera.

JVC RX-D412B

The JVC RX-D412B is one of the only sub-$400 A/V receivers with a decent set of HDMI video features.

Lensbaby 3G

Have fun with focus with the Lensbaby 3G, a digital SLR lens that brings one spot into sharp focus and blurs the rest of your image.

LG enV (VX9900)

The design still isn’t perfect, but the LG enV is a high-quality messaging and multimedia cell phone.

LG VX3400

The LG VX3400 is one of the best basic phones we’ve laid our hands on, with simple and easy-to-use controls and a great compact design.

Logitech ChillStream (PC)

Even if you don’t plan to use the ChillStream’s built-in fan to keep your hands cool, this Xbox-style gamepad makes a great controller for those PC games that aren’t suited to a keyboard and mouse.

Logitech Wireless DJ

If you’re looking for a way to stream your MP3 collection–including iTunes and Internet radio–from your PC to your home stereo, the Wireless DJ may be just the ticket.

Microsoft Xbox 360 HD DVD Drive

Jealous of the Blu-ray drive on Sony’s PlayStation 3? For just $200, Xbox 360 owners can get a plug-and-play add-on that adds HD DVD movie playback to the game console’s bag of tricks.

Microsoft Zune

The Microsoft Zune, with its intuitive interface and solid playback performance, will please most users. But lukewarm format support and the cool but limited Wi-Fi capability will have advanced users seeking more.

MobiBlu Cube2

No doubt the cult of the Cube will continue with this new model, the world’s smallest multimedia player. What it doesn’t offer in ideal user experience, it makes up for in style.

MobiBlu US2

MobiBlu’s wearable US2 is sleek and feature packed, but the user interface isn’t very sophisticated.

Neuros MPEG-4 Recorder 2 Plus

The Neuros MPEG-4 Recorder 2 Plus is a “flash media VCR” that provides a straightforward way to get video content onto your PlayStation Portable–or any other portable media device-without the need for a PC.

Nintendo Wii

It lacks the graphical prowess and rich media features of the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3, but the Nintendo Wii’s combination of unique, motion-sensitive controllers and emphasis on fun game play make the ultra-affordable console hard to resist.

Nokia 5300

The Nokia 5300 is a well-designed, user-friendly music cell phone that offers an amazing range of features backed by outstanding performance.

Panasonic TH-50PH9UK

Although its features can’t compete against typical consumer plasma TVs, the “professional” Panasonic TH-50PH9UK’s excellent picture quality and price make it the best value at this size, bar none.

Philips MCD515

The Philips MCD515 one-ups older, CD-only shelf systems by adding DVD playback. Pair it with a small TV, and you’ve got a great bedroom A/V system for less than $150.

Pioneer VSX-82TXS

With an extensive feature package, rock-solid build quality, and awesome sound, the Pioneer Elite VSX-82TXS is a worthy combination of everything we expect from a high-end A/V receiver.

Samsung HT-TQ85

Sexy tower speakers, great sound on DVDs and CDs, and HDMI and USB connectivity make the affordable Samsung HT-TQ85 an ideal mix of high style and home-theater prowess.

Samsung Jitterbug Dial

The Jitterbug Dial is very user-friendly, with a bright display, a large and tactile keypad, and many of the same characteristics of a landline cordless phone.

Samsung LN-S4096D

One of the best overall LCD televisions we’ve tested, the Samsung LN-S4096D delivers very good picture quality along with plenty of features and style.

Samsung Sync

The Samsung Sync is a great choice for music-mad cell phone users, but its call quality could be better.

Samsung YP-T9

Despite a few minor issues, the stylish Samsung YP-T9 is a no-brainer among MP3 players: It’s easy to use, packed with features, and sounds fantastic. What more could you ask for?

Sirius Stiletto 100

The intriguing Sirius Stiletto 100 is packed with useful radio and digital audio features, and it’s easy and fun to use. However, some consumers may find the Stiletto too bulky, and battery life isn’t stellar.

Sony HandyCam HDR-SR1

The Sony Handycam HDR-SR1’s combination of hard-disk capacity, easy adaptability, a great design, and a broad feature set make it the consumer HD model to beat for 2006.

Sony PlayStation 3

Sony’s PlayStation 3 may be the most expensive next-generation game console, and its launch titles aren’t all that impressive. However, its swanky design and a bevy of features, including a Blu-ray drive, make it a good purchase for the long term–if you can actually find one.

Sony KDS-R60XBR2

Although the Sony KDS-R60XBR2 has a picture that’s essentially identical to its less-expensive SXRD stablemate, the prodigious feature set on this 60-inch HDTV will attract buyers who must have it all.

Sony STR-DG1000

Sony’s great-sounding STR-DG1000 can handle HDMI switching and upconversion, and only misses the mark with its quirky setup and menu navigation.

Sony VAIO VGN-TXN15P/W

One of the best ultraportables on the market today, the well-designed Sony VAIO VGN-TXN15P/W provides business users with a thorough feature set and record-breaking battery life.

T-Mobile Dash

With a sleek design, good performance, and a robust set of productivity and wireless options, the T-Mobile Dash is an all-in-one hit and earns its reputation as a Motorola Q killer.

Toshiba Satellite P105-S9722

The Toshiba Satellite P105-S9722 will bring you close to top-of-the-line gaming performance at nearly half the cost of hard-core gaming rigs.

Yamaha YHT-670

For less than $600, the Yamaha YHT-670 includes everything you need for a home theater-a receiver, a DVD player, and compact speakers. All you need to supply is the TV and, of course, some DVDs.

Yamaha YSP-1100 Digital Sound Projector

Want to get rid of all those annoying speakers and wires that crisscross your living room? Yamaha’s YSP-1100-the company’s best-ever Digital Sound Projector single-speaker surround system-is a breeze to set up, and it sounds great on DVD.
