Holidays can be a dream come true for tech geeks, since many of us receive new tech gadgets as gifts. Since tech geeks love hearing about new gadgets, software, and games, let us know in the comments what new tech loot you received for the holidays, and what your initial impressions are.

I received a Roku XDS receiver, and a Netgear MoCA Coax-Ethernet Adapter Kit.  I’ll probably report back with a full review later, but both have left me impressed.  They’re working in tandem right now – the Netgear extends our network to the second floor, using our cable television wiring (think of it like powerline networking, but faster).  The Roku is plugged into the Netgear device, bringing Netflix, Amazon Video On Demand, and numerous other channels to our bedroom.

I also received some video games, a few gift cards that surely will go towards tech, and a cool “spy watch” that can take video and photos.  The watch is geared towards kids, but my wife knows me well and knew that I’d have fun playing around with it.

Now its your turn – make me drool!  What cool gadgets did you get?
