Oddball gifts for uber geeks

These Christmas gift ideas may surprise even the most hardened geeks in your life

Ice Invaders Ice Cube Tray

Who to give it to: The retro-gamer geek

What self-respecting geek doesn't remember (and love) the classic arcade game Space Invaders? Shooting aliens as they slowly advance toward earth has never been more fun! And when the red spaceship goes speeding across the top of the screen, you know the party has started. Well, now a geeky obsession with pixelated space aliens can extend into the kitchen--with the Ice Invaders Ice Tray ($US7.45, neatorama.com). The 24-block ice tray features two different aliens, and is made of silicon so it's easy to pop 'em out. There's no spaceship, but the cute alien ice blocks even feature indented eyes.
