RAZR Competes With Flowers on Mother's Day

The Post Chronicle reports that mobile devices just might be the perfect gift for Mother's Day.

Stephen Baker at NPD Group said, "Something small and mobile is really good," and suggested some "potential gifts on his list include the ubiquitous iPod or Motorola's RAZR mobile phone, two items that also feature on many teenagers' wish lists."

Baker argued that "there really isn't much difference between what mothers and fathers want, either. Gadgets that organize and simplify life like PDAs and multi-tasking mobile phones are popular, and if having a family-focused item is preferable, what could be better than a digital camera or a featherweight laptop on which to download them?"

According to the NPD Group, "electronic-product sales have been strong during a season that would otherwise have sluggish performance."
