Some of the best gadgets and gift ideas for techies

Birthdays only come once a year, so if there’s a techie in your life – or you’re looking for an awesome gift for yourself – here’s some gift ideas for just about every techie:

**Desktop Robot Vacuum**
Techies aren't exactly the neatest people on earth. Help that special someone out by giving him or her a nifty little desktop robot vacuum. The great thing about this robot vacuum is that it actually does quality work!

**Finger Mouse**
Would that special someone you’re buying a gift for simple love to get their hands on the latest in computer technology. If you purchase this gift, they will only need one finger! The Logisys optical finger mouse replaces a regular mouse and could very well be the wave of the future.

**WiFi Signal Locator**
Nothing will get a techie more frustrated than not being able to find a WiFi hotspot. With this Hiro WiFi Spotter, techies will find what they want so much faster!

**USB Air Purifier**
If the techie in your life spends a bit too much time around the computer, freshen up their surroundings with the gift of a USB Air Purifier. The cool thing is that the USB Air Purifier also doubles as a thermo alarm clock.

**Tetris LED Desk Lamp**
So, what techie doesn't like Tetris? This lamp is made up of all the different Tetris pieces, and when they stack up together the LED lights light up!

**ZyXEL Wireless Range Extender**
This device will be able to broaden a present WiFi signal so it can cover more ground. If you buy this gift for a techie, all they have to do is plug it in an area with a strong WiFi signal, turn it on, and see how weak signals suddenly turn to strong signals!

**Ventev Portable Charger**
Techies always have an abundance of electronic devices, and they always need their smartphone to be fully charged! This light and slim battery charger is a convenient and helpful gift. All you have to do is plug your phone into the charger without skipping a beat.

**Pocket Projector Mobile**
This portable projector can fit into the palm of your special techies hand and project whatever is on your phone out into the world for many more to see. It can connect to most smartphones, tablets, computers and video players.

**Brookstone Virtual Keyboard**
All techies will love this futuristic and handy device that brings up a keyboard out of thin air for you to use with iOS or Android mobile devices. The virtual keyboard uses lasers to display a keyboard on any flat surface, plus it is the most portable keyboard for your tablet and is smaller than a deck of cards.

It’s always exciting to get a gift for someone, and some of the best gifts are tech devices. Make that special techie’s birthday one they will remember for years to come.
