Geek Love Art Prints

RH Numbers

Nothing says "I <3 U" quite like a nerdy picture to hang on your woman's wall, and if she's truly a geek, she'll certainly appreciate one of these arty offerings.

The Geek Love Art Prints by Nicole Martinez come in five funky designs, each as dweeb-tastic as the next. At 40cm x 32cm, they're not so massive that they'll look out of place and could be bought collectively for a triptych-type trio above the mantle.

My personal faves are the 'We got Chemistry' and 'You mean the world to me', as pictured below, but click through to Firebox for all the designs. They're not badly priced, either.

HTC Rhyme

RH Numbers

If you think your woman could do with a bit more Sense in her life, then how about splashing out on the HTC Rhyme, a smartphone specifically geared towards the feminine mobile user?

The Rhyme flaunts a 3.7in display and 5Mp stills'n'video camera as well as a front-facing 0.3Mp webcam. It packs 4GB of storage and 768MB of Ram. This is all powered by a 1GHz Qualcomm CPU running Android 2.3 Gingerbread spruced up with the latest Sense UI.

But let's forget the specs with this one and look towards what makes it such an attractive prospect for the ladies. For starters, it comes in three feminine colours, it has a super organised home screen, but best of all, there's a little 'Rhyme Charm' thrown in.

This is a small glowing cube which attaches to the handset with a cable and dangles out of a handbag for easy access and to present phone notifications through coloured lights. Oooh, shiny.

So it's true, women can only use technology if it's pink

Expect a thorough kicking when you get home, sir. Particularly if your gift of lurve is a pink USB hard drive.

Slap a coat of pink on it, and away you go!

I'm looking around my condo right now and I see three laptops, one desktop, one server, several external drives, two flat screen monitors, a printer, and router - none of it is pink. Had it been pink, I would have passed it by, I'm more of a blue/silver girl. Tip: just because you slap a layer of pink enamel on a tech product, it doesn't mean that it's suddenly meant for girls.

Spawn of Satan because it kinda looks like a purse with a smiley face.
