Contest Interruptus Ends With a Bangus!

Posted on 08 March 2008 by


Before our month of give-aways was so rudely interrupted by the server crash of 2008 (from now on to be known as "BC"), we were nearing the end of the giving cycle, but I still had 10 days worth of goodies left to go.

I have decided to save those items for the next massive give-away (most likely to be done in time for Christmas). So instead, we are going to pull out the stops to end this contest with a bang!

Behold:

I have here, two Windows Mobile 6 Professional (Pocket PC) unlocked PDA phones. The one on the left is an O2 Atom Life, which was generously donated by TTT. On the right, is the HTC Touch Dual that I was given at Mobius 2007 by HTC and Microsoft. On the bottom are eight (8) Amazon gift certificates, each worth $25, which were donated anonymously.

The two phones have been gently used, but each come with their original boxes and goodies. The gift certificates are brand new. ;-)

Basically, there will be ten winners. We will start the contest on Monday morning, and all details about how to win them will be posted then.

I can tell you now, that as we always do – this contest will be open to everyone all over the world and shipped at my expense. Registration on Gear Diary will be necessary to enter (so you might as well do it now and get it out of the way), and you will want to make sure that judie (at) geardiary . com is in your non-spam list.

More Monday… :mrgreen:

I started Gear Diary on September 30, 2006, and my goal was that this not be an easily labeled site. We all have gear that we use daily – some of it electronic and some of it organic. I think it is fascinating to explore the equipment that makes our lives easier, more entertaining, more productive, and more manageable. My hope is that Gear Diary visitors will find this site to be a comfortable and friendly place to discuss interesting topics – and not only those that are tech related, as well as a location to discover various types of gear – whatever that term may end up implying – that they never knew existed. My specialty is in-depth reviews written in a layman’s terms, because everyone can understand technology, sometimes it just takes a little translating. +Judie Stanford

    Lurking that Touch Dual. My friend got a Touch and it is seriously a nice device. I wouldn’t mind getting the 25$ amazong gifts either, maybe I’d finally be able to get those Trident Gum packs ;) I have been looking for them for ages here, can’t find them!

    I was very dismayed when that happened. Not just because of the giveaways but because I always read what’s new on GearDiary.

    And a Generous Bangus it is. I had to register again after the “BC” my username was wiped out of the system.

    Wow, that’s a major tech-out! I’m glad that you guys are up and running on both feet again… and long live the Bangus!
