You missed the best techie gift of this year. The Personal Soundtrack T-shirt. The only appreciable difference between "Heros" and the rest of us is that "Heros" have incidental music.
As an April Fool, ThinkGeek did a spoof of a T-shirt with a speaker in the chest, that you could program with your own incidental music e.g. Spagetti Western "Stand-off" theme, Benny Hill Saxophone "Chase" theme, Romeo and Juliet "Love" theme, etc.
The response was so overwhelming that they went ahead and developed it.
However unromantic you may think someone's self-image may be, I guarantee you that every single Geek you ever met would cherish the gift of their very own incidental music.
