Are there any feats other than Skill focus(UMD) and Magical Aptitude that can increase ones UMD?

Thanks for the help

Shape soulmeld: mages spectacles gives +4 along with some other benefits.

Nymphs kiss gives +2 to CHA based rolls. And +1 skill point per level.

An admiral's bicorne from Stormwrack gives you a +5 untyped to all charisma based checks and a +2 morale bonus on all skill checks, for a total +7 to UMD (and any other CHA skill). It does other cool stuff too, plus you'll look stylish.

A level in Marshall is an old trick to give you double your charisma bonus (rather than one times your cha bonus) to all charisma based skills, including UMD.

A Circlet of Persuasion (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/magicItems/wondrousItems.htm#circletofPersuasion) will give you a +3 competence bonus.

A masterwork tool will give you a +2 circumstance bonus.

5 ranks in Spellcraft will give you a circumstantial +2 synergy bonus.

A Masterwork Tool (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/equipment/goodsAndServices.htm#toolMasterwork) gives a +2 Circumstance bonus.

A Wand of Guidance of the Avatar (http://www.wizards.com/dnd/article.asp?x=dnd/sb/sb20010504a) is 90 gp per charge and gives +20 to a given roll.

Item Familiar (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/magic/itemFamiliars.htm): Invest Skill Ranks gives you a bonus up to your number of ranks in the skill. You can upgrade that as though you possess the prerequisites, so add on a Competence Bonus (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/magicItems/creatingMagicItems.htm) for bonus squared x 100 gp, which can be up to +30 pre-epic (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/epic/magicItems/basics.htm).

i believe artificers have an infusion that can grant bonuses to skills, not 100% sure how it works exactly as i am away from book.

but i just like the idea puting it into a musical insturement, and providing the bonus to move silently, or underware to improve spot or search
