Star Wars Ultimate FX Luke Skywalker Lightsaber

It is a well known fact that a lot of geeks are fans of Star Wars. If you are looking to buy a Star Wars themed gift for a geek that you know then you cannot go far wrong with this Lightsaber. The lightsaber is the weapon of choice for most Jedi Knights and is an elegant weapon and can cut through almost anything. This lightsaber is a replica of the one that Luke Skywalker used in the movies. It even does the lightsaber sound effects as well.

iRobot 560 Roomba Vacuuming Robot

The iRobot 560 Roomba Vacuuming Robot is the perfect present for the geek who has every thing. This little robot will vacuum automatically so that you do not have to do it yourself. This is a great gift for any geek who loves gadgets. The robot is designed to seek out its charging dock when its battery is low and it will whistle if it gets stuck. This is not a cheap gift so is probably best for a geek in your life who means a lot to you.

What the company says:
With dramatically improved navigation, cleaning coverage, vacuum pickup, and particle filtration, the Roomba 560 vacuuming robot picks up amazing amounts of dirt and debris with the simple touch of a button. The powerful unit features innovative spinning side brushes that grab dirt and dust from corners and along wall edges, as well as two high-speed, counter-rotating brushes that pick up pet hair, cat litter, food crumbs, and other debris from floors. The vacuum sucks up the debris and deposits it into a large, easy-to-empty, bagless dust bin, and its improved fine-filtration system traps dust, pollen, and other allergens inside the unit, reducing infiltration into the living environment.
For added convenience, the vacuum's cleaning head automatically adjusts to transition from wood, tile, and linoleum to carpets and rugs, while improved anti-tangle technology ensures it will not get stuck on cords and rug fringe. If the unit begins to pick up a cord or carpet tassel, it will automatically reverse the direction of its brushes to extract the item. A gentle-touch bumper system senses obstacles so the vacuum automatically slows its approach, gently touches the obstacle, then redirects to continue cleaning under or around the object. Because it cleans under beds, couches, and other hard-to-reach areas, it actually vacuums more of the floor than a standard upright. The vacuum also senses dirtier areas and spends more time cleaning them, and it uses built-in cliff sensors to avoid stairs and other drop-offs. In addition, invisible barriers can be set using the 2 auto virtual walls included in the system. To mark off-limit areas, simply place a virtual wall at a doorway or other opening and adjust the infrared beam setting to the distance of the opening. The unit automatically detects the beam and will not cross it.

Back to the Future Marty McFly Hat Prop Replica

This is the second gift that I am going to review on here. The Back to the Future movies are often within a Geeks top 10 movie list. Whilst the films may be a little dated now they are still very popular especially among Geeks. This cap will make an excellent gift because it is a movie prop and they are quite popular among Geeks. Also it is very resonably priced. Price: $21.39 Rating:*** Available From: What the company says: Back to the Future Marty McFly Hat Prop Replica Gadzooks! Look at all the colors!

Welcome

Welcome to my Geek gift ideas blog. It can often be difficult to buy gifts for a Geek as we tend to enjoy things that other people would find strange (D&D, Magic the Gathering etc) so I have decided that as a fellow Geeek I will create this blog to show off some great gift ideas for Geeks.

Each post will contain an idea for a gift that a Geek may enjoy. I will also give each gift idea that I find a rating out of 5 so that you have an idea as to how good that product is. I will also show where you can get that gift from. I hope you enjoy this blog.

This blog will cover gifts that you could buy for a Geek for Christmas, birthdays, Valentines Day, or what ever other special occasion warrants the giving of a gift.
