I've been asked by a lot of non- tech people to put together a list of accessories that geeks will love. What things large or small are on your holiday list this year? Thank you in advance for your help.

My list includes things like extra microfiber cleaning cloths, compressed air, extra stylus pens, a zagg keyboard etc.
 
Samsung Ativ Smart PC 500T Windows 8 tablet with keyboard.
Samsung Google Chromebook Series 3.
Apple TV or Google TV.
Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.
Tablet stand.
Energizer QI inductive charger.

I got the Note 2 a while back.
Just got a dock station for it.
Nothing really. I am happy.

It's funny, for me this is the year of the accessory because I'm waiting for Haswell to upgrade my notebook, I'm happy with my SG III & ipad. So accessories it is 🙂
 
Not much really. My GF just got me a 47" TV and I already have a galaxy tab 2 7", SGS3, iphone 5 and every game console known to man. All I am missing from my geek-life is assasind creed III and I think my son is getting that for me for christmas so I am good.
 
Stuff that has yet to be released unfortunately.

Tegra 4 tablet, or something better. Surface Pro? They just seem like they'll be way overpriced, and my main priority is battery life. Asus Transformer series with dock is excellent. Just want a 1080p+ display, HDMI out, microsd/SD and be able to play 1080p content flawlessly.

Nvidia 7 or AMD 8 series GPU. Also want to build a new PC around it.

Maybe a Galaxy S4 if I can weasel my way into a discounted upgrade and keep unlimited data on Verizon.
 
I kind of wanted a Nexus 7 but I just got a Note 2 which is kind of sort of similar so I'm set with that(at least for the next 2 months 😛).

I'm debating on trading my iPad 3 for an iPad mini just... because. I also just got a new car so honestly, the stuff I want isn't out yet.
 
yea im in the nothing camp. at least nothing that is a gadget

id like a table saw and a plunge router and various speaker parts, but no one is gonna buy me those

the prob with being single and having money is that i just buy everything i want for myself
wait thats not really a prob

I'm the same way yet people seem to think I'm rich.

No, I'm single with no debt/kids so I only have one person to spend money on... me, obviously.
 
I generally buy stuff for myself, which infuriates potential gift givers since i always have what I want.

Actual wishlist:
iPod Nano for gym use
Roku 2 XD for Netflix (gf) and Amazon Prime (me) streaming

Dream Wishlist:
Dropcam (or 2) to monitor then house when I'm away
Philips Hue or Lifx bulbs, 6 total for my living room and bedroom for automated timers, color changing lights & alarm clock.
55"+ LED LCD TV to replace the 46" LCD

While I could treat myself to the dream wishlist over the next year or so, I'm saving up for an engagement ring so that's out. I think my parents got me the iPod nano for XMas, so that was nice of them.
