11-Year Anniversary: Steel
Is your husband your Man of Steel? If he leaps buildings to bring you flowers regularly, cooks meals, keeps the house tidy and still makes you laugh on a daily basis, it's time to reward him this anniversary. Guys love gadgets. The secret is that women love gadgets too, which is why the new iPhone 4 would be great for both.

iPhone 4
www.apple.com/iphone
You're probably thinking, "What the heck does the new iPhone have to do with steel?" Well, if you must know, there's a stainless steel band that encases the latest phone from Apple. This band also doubles as the antenna. Groovy. If that doesn't impress you, how about the new forward facing camera so you can video chat with your spouse from your phone! We don't think we need to tout the other 100-plus improvements to the iPhone software or the added speed or battery life to convince you that this phone is awesome.
Price: Starting at $199 for 16GB new activation

12-Year Anniversary: Silk
There is nothing like silk. You mention the feeling of silk and your mind immediately begins to wonder. When you want to tempt your spouse with chocolate you describe it as silky. When you want to feel sensual you slip into your silk lingerie. With a dozen years in the bank, be sure to keep that fire going with the help and pleasure of silk.

300 Instant Camera

Yep, and the 300 Instant Camera brings back the fun of snapping pictures and seeing instant results.
