June is a big month for the recognition of loved ones. First off, everyone takes time on the third Sunday this month to pay respects to the gizmo king of the house--it's Father's Day! Secondly, those poor kids have been toiling away all those years and have finally made it. It's time to give them a break, with the gift of gadgets (which is the only gift worth giving). In this week's edition of CNET Live, both Brian and Tom will be devoting a special segment of the program to the best gifts for grads and dads.

As the beginning of summer also approaches, so does the strange tech. This week, Tom shares a peripheral that's guaranteed to keep your digits toasty, in his Crave pick of the week. In addition, Brian will share which hot app he's been eyeing, in this week's selection for Best of the Web.

Have an annoying tech problem that no group of geeks can handle? Give our tech gurus a shout. That's right, ring Brian and Tom between 12:40 p.m. and 1:30 p.m. (PT) this Thursday at 888-900-CNET, and get that pesky problem solved.

Don't forget to tune in this Thursday for the best thing since sliced bread...or Tom's ThinkPad!
