I do believe he'd cherish that more than any device you can buy him.

Good suggestion. I agree -- heartfelt words trump physical gifts. I did that when I got married ('98), for both my mom and dad, but I do believe it's time to do that again. Same reason I write an occasional love note to my husband (not counting the geeky short emails and text pages I send him, especially when work is stressing him out)...
The only problem I foresee is doing so for Dad means I should do the same for Mom (who just got out of the hospital less than a week ago -- 9 days in for pancreatitis).
I'm very proud of both of them incidentally. Mom's quit smoking and dad is well on his way there.
