It's usually tough finding the right gift for an entrepreneur. Hey, the best thing would probably be a loan or some customers, right?
OK, being realistic, there are some gifts to consider. Let's take a look:
The Cloud: It's all the rage right now -- that is, on-demand software services. The good news is that much of it is affordable. Take a look at Salesforce.com (CRM). The company has a small business edition of its customer relationship management (CRM) offering that comes to only $50 per year.
Intuit (INTU) also has some great on-demand products, such as PayCycle (which helps with payroll).
Inspiration: A good book can help. One of my favorites is Pour Your Heart into It: How Starbucks Built a Company One Cup at a Time
Oh, if you feel like shelling out some big bucks, you can pick up a Kindle
Going Wireless: Many entrepreneurs spend lots of hours at a desk, taking calls and working on the computer. So why not make things easier? One idea is to get a wireless Plantronics Digital Wireless Office Headset
Fun: With all the grueling hours and stress, it's good to get some entertainment. One idea is The Office -- Season Five

Nice list of gifts for the holiday. It's always tough. I found another list that is helpful too at StartUp Me: http://startupme.com/wordpress/?p=173
