This year my shopping list for SBL is:
Charles H. Talbert - Ephesians and Colossians (Paideia).
D.A. Carson & Greg Beale - Commentary on the New Testament Use of the Old Testament
M. Eugene Boring - Mark (NTL)
A.Y. Collins - Mark: A Commentary (Hermeneia)
Jacob Myers - 1 & 2 Esdras (AB)
Erkki Koskenniemi - The Exposure of Infants among Jews and Christians in Antiquity
Any one of these books would make a great birthday present for someone (with red hair and from Australia) who just happens to be celebrating their birthday at SBL (18 Nov 07).
I'm with you on every one of those books (except maybe the 1 and 2 Esdras), especially that last one which I wasn't aware of. Thanks for pointing it out.
