The iPod Nano is a fail-safe Valentine’s gift. But, to firmly position yourself on the “thoughtful” side of the fence, go the extra mile and include some of her favorite songs, albums and, in the event that you share a “special song/s,” which you should, be sure and include those, too. However, if you really want to redline the Thoughtfulness Meter (patent pending), build a photo slideshow with photos and songs. Rest assured this act alone will give you a thoughtfulness surplus that will balance out any future un-anniversary/birthday-related thoughtlessness for months to come.

While the iPod Nano doesn’t have the Valentine’s Day presence of a Pink Guitar, its diminutive size and available colors make up for any lack of Valentine’s gravitas.
