Whatever it is, make sure it is something they will always remember. I lost my father three years ago (ironically my wife's father died that same day as well. Their deaths were two hours apart, and they were in hospitals that were 40 miles away from each other). He had been losing alot of weight, and had a hard time keeping warm, so, at my request, my wife made him a nice bathrobe, in his favorite color blue, that had a woodsy outdoor theme to it (Dad loved hunting and fishing). Even though he only had a month to enjoy it, he proudly showed it to all the other kids when they came to visit, and it was very special to him. I made sure I got it after he died, and I think of him every morning when I put it on going to and coming from the shower.
Best thing I can tell you is think about where your dad's interests are, and buy (or make) him something along that theme. Trust me, he will appreciate the fact that you thought about what he enjoys the most, and you will always have the joy of that moment long after he is gone.

I-pods are crap. Get him a Sandisk Sansa 4 gig mp3 player. It's about $160 on amazon with free shipping. You just synch up music from Windows Media Player and you're good. It accepts any format, has an FM player which can also be recorded, it has a voice recorder and it can be used as a flash memory card to store documents. It's also 4GB. Get it.

As a father of 5 children I can say that I would love a day of peace and quiet where the kids were obedient, courteous and kind... and a home made card. I'm a sucker for them.

Sit down and write for him about a special memory you have of the two of you. Tell him what he's meant in your life. Let him know that if you could have picked a dad, you would have picked him.

But being a Dad myself, the most heartfelt card, with something personal written in it, is the best thing I could ask for.
