Today it’s our turn to share some magic courtesy of HP and Microsoft. We’re giving away $6,000 worth of gear, including four computers (a 25 inch touchscreen desktop, two laptops and HP’s newest Netbook), a media extender, printer and a bunch of software/DVDs.
That’s a lot of kit for even for the most hardened geek, so we’re encouraging the winner to also share the magic by giving some of the prize away.
For your chance to win, I’m going to keep it relatively simple. Here’s how to enter, along with a few basic rules.
- Leave a comment on this post listing your top five digital lifestyle products and/or services of this year. They don’t need to all be products you own, and they could be digital lifestyle services you use, but they must all have been released this year or have had a significant update. It would also be more fun if you explain why you’ve chosen them.
- Make sure you leave a working email address in the ‘email’ field of the comments form.
- You may only enter once.
- If you are the winner and based in the U.S. you must be willing to file a tax return form with Buzz Corps who are administrating the competition. However, they will issue a check to offset the taxes in the U.S. relating to the prize.
- Employees, contractors of last100 or their family members are not eligible (nor are personal friends of mine, sorry folks!)
- After seven days from this post, the winner will be chosen randomly from all complete entries.
- Our decision is final and we reserve the right to change the rules if there has been an omission on our part or we suspect unfair conduct on the part of an entrant.
PLUS share some magic with us (optional)
- If you haven’t done already, please consider subscribing to this blog in your RSS reader, or subscribing to our weekly wrapup email (see above). That way you’ll know about future giveaways too!
- If you have your own blog, Twitter or Facebook account, then why not give us a mention as well.
Good luck everybody!

1. iPod Touch – Great gadget and it’s useful for all sorts of things like logging in to my computer remotely, adding notes, updating blogs, and a lot more.
2. Android G1 – Google’s Android looks like an awesome phone, it’s open source (unlike the iPhone) and has a lot of awesome apps.
3. Amazon Kindle – Looks like an interesting eBook reader.
4. Wii Fit – Looks like an interesting
5. HP Mini 1000 – Awesome netbook released by HP
I twittered this contest at http://twitter.com/ShanGee/status/1060804791. 🙂
1. iPhone 3g – reason pretty obvious
2. NuevaSync – I can’t go without their exchange like syncing service
3. New Windows Live services – great new services that are all free and make life easier on a pc
4. JungleDisk 2.5 beta – best backup out there and with this beta finally works like it should on Vista
5. Issu – a great new service to make pdf/documents on line look good and easily navigable.
Happy Holidays All! These are my life changing picks for 2008!
1.Boxee + ATV = The best TV watching experience, if you haven’t tried Boxee and you own a mac/linux machine then stop what your doing and head over to Boxee.tv. This software changed my life, rather then watching having to watch my favorite Hulu shows on my laptop I can now move over to the TV and properly watch my shows.
2. Chumby + Pandora = Two things I love have finally come together, now I can enjoy the great music pandora has to offer whenever I’m away from my laptop and next to my Chumby. Find out more at chumby.com
3. FreeNAS + Time Machine = I love the idea of backing up my mac with time machine, tho I hated the idea of having to always plug in my mac and apple’s NAS solution was to expensive. I was able to research and found a free alternative using a couple tweaks and freenas. Tho freenas goes beyond just network backups. Find out more at freenas.org.
4. iPhone 2.2 + Jailbreak = Downloading podcast directly from my phone rocks and having the ability to see google street view on the road really helps me find those hard to find places. I love my iphone and i always love the updates. Check out the dev team blog for more info.
5. Canon + CHDK = Breathing new life into old hardware is always a treat. With the CHDK software you can make you pocket sized canon cameras take professional looking raw photos, time laps photography and tons more. Check out http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/CHDK for more info.
1. Blackberry Storm – I love that phone. I have had zero issues with it and will surf the internet from it instead of getting my laptop out.
2. Boxee – Great media center application. Hulu, CBS, Netflix and access to all your digital media. It will be huge once the Windows version is polished.
3. Geocaching app for iPod Touch – Great for paperless geocaching. Instead of printing off stacks of paper, I load local caches into the touch and can pull them up when I’m out. It’s a nice companion to my Garmin 60csx.
4. TouchSmart – I know it’s in the giveaway but I have been wanting to buy one. It’s the perfect command center for a family. Put it in the kitchen and the family can easily access digital media, email and calendars. All from a touch interface. I might be a sucker for touch screens.
5. Aluminum MacBook – Great laptop. The size and weight is perfect for travel. The aluminum makes it feel solid in your hands.
1-Tamron 70-200mm f/2.8 (lens)
2-Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W150 (camera)
3-Sigma 70-300mm F4-5.6 DG Macro (lens)
4-Samsung NV24HD (Digicam)
5-Panasonic 32 GB SDHC(storage)
1. Nikon D60: Best entry level DSLR of 2008. Even though it won’t AF on non AF-S Nikkor lens, the price makes it a killer.
2. Aluminum MacBook: Real aluminum unibody design, the NVIDIA GPU, OS X makes it an outstanding laptop.
3. Canon 5D Mark II: High Def, professional looking video. You can make some fine looking movies with bokeh using fast primes. A price tag under $3000 (body only).
4. Blackberry Storm: Something to stop this iPhone hype.
5. Voodoo Envy 133: Sexy carbon fiber body,
1. HP mini 1000, seems like one of the best notebooks out there.
2.Aigo MID, One of the few mids available at the moment. Seems great and gets better as xp drivers get out.
3.Iphone 3g, will force other manifacturers to make better products.
4.acer aspire one, My own netbook. It has made my computer using a lot easier.
5.Android G1, Looks great and open source
Here are my favorites for this year 🙂
1. iPhone : One of the best decisions I ever made this year was to buy the iPhone.. Have been super impressed by it, and the app store and the platform simply kicks ass.. Light years ahead of any other smart phone out there..
2. iPhone 3G Jailbreak / Pwnage Tool : Second to none, the ultimate in hacking in 2008.. Extending the capabilities of the already powerful iPhone, Pwnage tool beats the shit out of any other hack this year..
3. Unibody Macbook Pro : This is the ultimate device for the mobile geek.. A Sexy outer is not the only thing, about these latest laptops from Apple, they are simply beautiful from inside as well..
4. The new Google Reader Interface : As a blogger, google reader forms the heart of all my blogging related activities.. The New interface is a marked improvement over the previous iteration and I’m just in love with Google Reader all over again..
5. Boxee : My new found love.. An awesome media center on my mac.. Kills front row, and is a joy to use it to manage my massive movie and music collection..
1. 3G iPhone-“twice the speed of half the price!”
2. Epson Artisan 800-sleek, chic and oh so nice! I love this printer
3. Nikon D300-this lovely boasts 12.3-MP DX-format CMOS sensor with Nikon EXPEED Image Processing System and large, 3-inch 920,000-dot color LCD!! What more could one want?!
4. Apple TV Take 2-Nice update for an awesome product
5. Apple iTouch-Because I can’t stream my iPhone’s iPod in the car. The best of both worlds (an MP3 player that can connect to the internet!)
1. Live Mesh – While it is still in beta, it is a lifesaver because you can have all your documents in the cloud. You also don’t have to carry around those stupid usb flash drives anymore. It also does remote desktop… for free! Don’t pay for logmein or gotomypc anymore!
2. New Xbox Live Experience – Having a visual representation of yourself and your friends is amazing. You don’t have to look for your friends’ names and try to remember who “seawolfparamorewwefan” is because their avatars look just like the person you want to play with! Also, my Xbox is much quieter because of game install which should help set the mood when I play Resident Evil 5 next year; nice and quiet for a good scare.
3. Optimum Wifi – My cable company, Optimum Online, has set up wireless hotspots… EVERYWHERE! I can go anywhere in my neighborhood and get wifi on my laptop; they have wifi service for miles and miles.
4. HP tx Tablet – A new HP tablet that I got for school. It is basically the iphone of laptops because it has a touch screen and a wacom tablet. Together with onenote, it is a note taking machine. It also helps the environment because this is the first semester ever that I have not used a single sheet of loose leaf!
5. Windows 7 (beta) – I think that Microsoft has really learned from their Vista experiment. Windows 7 really does bring back the speed and snappiness of XP. It also has multitouch on par with the iphone and dozens of new features. It also has a dock at the bottom that is far superior to that of apple’s.
http://twitter.com/kingofmyworld24/status/1060886166
1. Samsung’s Instinct. I love that I have a phone/media player in one, and that I can surf the net, check emails, post to twitter, etc all from my phone!
2. Epson’s New Artisan Series of All-in-One printers! I’m about to purchase the Artisan 800 and am looking forward to having 1 printer instead of two! This should meet all of my needs, plus it’s wi-fi capable, so we can print from anywhere in the house!
3. Online Ordering at places like Dominos Pizza!!! I absolutely love this feature are restaurant sites! It’s wonderful to be able to put my order in, and know it’s right, as opposed to hoping the person on the other end of the line hears me and places the correct order. I can also watch the status of my order which is lots of fun!
4. Twitter. I know this has been around for a while, but it seems to just be catching on as of this year. I’m thoroughly enjoying networking with other moms in business!!!
5. Blockbuster’s mail program for DVDs and the online ordering of such. No more going to the store and hunting for the movie you want, only to find out they don’t have it in stock, or worse yet, don’t carry it! The online ordering is cool because you can search for titles, see how long the wait is (if any) and pile up your favorites in your queue! We’ve gotten to see so many movies our local store doesn’t stock, and for very affordable prices too!!
I plan to share. A lot!
The two items I’d love to keep would be the HP Touch to give to my wonderful husband, and one of the laptops for myself. (and yes, I’d review them here!)
All the other items I’d give away to local charities and organizations that could use some new technology. Some of these include the Pregnancy Care Center and the Children’s Advocacy Center.
The Pregnancy Care Center not only counsels expecting mothers, but offers classes in English, Basic Computer Skills, Resume Writing, Self Presentation, and others to help struggling women find jobs.
The Children’s Advocacy Center provides more than shelter for troubled youth. They clothe, love, and care for and child that needs it, and they do this all based on donations from the golden hearts of our community.
My husband and I proudly support these organizations by attending their banquets, donating money and items whenever possible. It’s one of the small ways we’re able to give back to our community, thus making the world we live in, a better place.
The items we keep for ourselves will also be put to use for volunteer work. We both design and manage websites, several of which we provide free of charge for charitable organizations. Along with the design, we donate web hosting and much of our time. I use my computer weekly to print labels for one of these organizations as well.
1. Nokia N82 – excellent phone features, the 5MP xenon camera (carl-zeiss), mobile surfing with WiFi, Java application support and good battery life.
2. Windows Live Services – purely free service which utilizes online storage, live messenger, calendars, blog services, custom domains, the live mesh and don’t forget the minimalistic UI that’s easy to load to any mobile browsers.
3. Zune Originals – an iPod competitor but with more features and a media-center like experience.
4. HP Mini 1000 series – Great netbook for surfing and blogging outdoors. Impressive specs with Intel Atom and the very stable Windows XP.
5. XBOX 360 – the best gaming console on the market with the new XBOX experience. A long list of well-awaited games and renting services.
1. Asus 1002HA. Seems like my hunt for the right features/price in a mini is finally over.
2. Acer One. Would not personally go for a mirror screen but nice with some solid competition.
3. iPhone 3G. Wish I could afford one. By far the nicest user interface ever.
4. 64GB usb sticks. Finally my most important stuff can fit on one, cheap key.
5. 1.5TB Seagate. Yes, 1TB would fit the stuff but nice with room to spare. Looking forward however to the rumoured 2TB WD so waiting …
1. New Windows Live Services – having some fun with this!
2. Blackberry Storm – I don’t own one, but want one!
3. Amazon Kindle – just starting a blog today (thebooklover.wordpress.com) – I love books in any form!
4. MagicJack – can’t wait to try this!
5.3M’s Mobile Privacy Film – keeps your screen from prying eyes!
R (my cable provider http://www.mundo-r.com) : because with little is the BIGGEST. You pay for what you have ALWAYS (not only sometimes), no more-no less.
Opera browser : because of the improvements in 9.X and soon 10 and, no other offers so much in so little AS IS…
Nintendo WiiFit : because have showed there is still room to make original things.
EeePC : because have boosted the netbook market to where the creators of the idea don’t dared to reach.
Microsoft ZUNE 2G : because there is still hope for them.
1. XBOX 360
2. Nokia N82
3. HP Mini 1000 series
4. IPod Touch
5. Cyber Shot t77
1. iPhone 3G
2. Blackberry Storm
3. Zune 120GB
4. HP Mini
5. Toshiba Qosmio G50
1. Apple iPhone 3G – Great things for great dudes. since it was launched in my area this month, i have used it less and whatever i have done with it its great.
2. Microsoft Sync – I loved using it, when i used it in my friends car, it was the best way to operating gadgets in the car. I also operated a mobile with so. Its best u don’t even have to touch a mobile. Thats the way to lazy guys (in short me).
3. Wii Fit & Wii Balance Board. Infact whole wii system is amazing. I love gaming on all consoles.
4. Amazon Kindle – For a booker lover as I, there is nothing more amazing and essential then this products, its amazing. I particularly love it because i can read while lying down in my bed at night.
5. Optoma Pico PK-101 – I would love to have a personal projector, I never had projectors, and if it can work with ipods and all then nothing better, I could use it at my school and with friends and on the go. Great gadget.
P.S.- Best of luck to everyone.
I’ve gone head-first into the cloud and want (or actually use) the following to manage my life and archive details of it:
1. HP Mini – take it anywhere without needing to lug another bag or break a sweat
2. Zoho Apps – quality applications (some still need a little work – but all are usable) to substitute for MS Office. I’ve downloaded the Word/Excel add-on that allows me to save .doc / .xls straight to Zoho. Zoho Creator gets me an online job application that hosts applicant details and instantly notifies me of a new submission. Now my Creator apps can even be hosted on Google’s AppEngine
3. Windows Live SkyDrive – they just recently expanded to 25Gb of free storage and have improved their interface. One of the best improvements is allowing picture sizes up to 50Mb so I never lose quality. It took a little creativity, but you can even manipulate the embed html offered for each stored document to hotlink without having to show the MS Live button. The butto is attractive, but not always appropriate for every use.
4. LG Lotus (the black one – not the purple/paisley/girly one) – for texting, email & internet. Hopefully it can be a laptop substitute for some routine online requirements. Blackberry, Apple, Samsung, and many others have more powerful smartphones, but this is the only clamshell phone with decent capabilites so far (that I’m aware of).
5. Hordit – to store everything. I’d like it if Hordit got a little more pep in it’s step, but I love the feature “read it later” that lets me mark a website for later without it getting lost in all of my browser’s bookmarks. I know – a little creativity could handle this without needing Hordit but the fact that it’s unlimited free storage makes me think it might be a candidate in my search for a place to centralize the stuff I have littered around the internet at other cloud storage sites.
My 5 best life style product of 2008.
HP Media Server Receiver – Its a media server which automatically aggregates content thats the best part.
Samsung 52 inch ultra slim LCD – Add dynamic colours to your home with HP Media Server Receiver
sorry didnt add other three
3.JVC’s Snap and Gesture HDTV
4. Logitec Squeeze Box
5. MacBook Air
1 – Ipod touch : I love it, I decided I would spend the money and when I did I was so happy. It’s so convenient, the movies/music/games and internet are just amazing to have when you’re waiting somewhere.
2 – Razer Tarantula Keyboard : This keyboard is $119. I think or close but I got it brand new very cheap on ebay. It’s for gaming.
3 – Blizzard Authenticator : This is a little tool that generates a password based on time so if someone finds out your password they can’t log in unless they have the physical password gen.
4 – Xbox 360 NXE : The new experience is an awesome update, everyone know’s why. There were some tech issues for me but they passed.
5 – VGA Converter : I bought the Chinese generic version but it works awesome, it lets me plug anything I would plug into my tv; into my computer so I can use my monitor as a television.
1. The HP Mini 1000 – my dream notebook for being on the run.
2. The Amazon Kindle – to have loads of books at my fingertips, along with getting to read sample chapters before purchasing, turns me on.
3. Wii Fit – an incentive to get off my bum after spending hours at my computer.
4. iPhone 3g – easy access to my life, wherever I am, as well as to the rest of the world.
5. iPod touch – what a wow factor for my down times.
Microsoft Mesh
nokia n97
Google Chrome
Nintendo DSi
Canon EOS Rebel XS (1000d)
(I would have added wii fit and kindle but they were released prior to 2008, from what I can figure out (wii released in Japan 2007).)
I joined the email list and also I twittered this! http://twitter.com/aliengurl4004/status/1061131794
1) iPod Touch—remote log-in
2) Kindle reader—lots of books. Very little shelf space required.
3) Firefox 3.0.4—Add-ons are great. Goodbye IE. You’ve been Netscaped.
4) Blackberry Storm—Me want. A friend just got one. Showoff!!!!
5) ZUNE 120—gets better and better
I’m going to Pay It Forward
1. SqueezeBox Boom – The SB duet was great, this makes a great pairing for another room!
2. Sprint Touch Pro – so awesome 🙂
3. Hulu – catching up made easy
4. Das Keyboard Pro – I so miss the Model Ms
5. Slacker G2 – I love the idea of personalized radio on-the-go and auto-updated
1. Sprint Touch Pro: Upgraded from my Treo 700wx a few weeks ago and I love the new device, I don’t have to carry around a separate bluetooth GPS that may or may not work when I need it, and it’s actually usable for web browsing with Opera and the VGA screen.
2. Tivo HD +Netflix: A great new use of my most essential gadget. Getting a laptop hooked up to a TV to watch a Netflix stream is more of a hassle than just driving to a video store to begin with.. this solves the problem by just streaming to a device that’s always there anyway.
3. Mino HD: I haven’t used this little guy yet, but my girlfriend adores the thing; and it does seem quite handy.
4. Slingbox (Slingplayer 2.0): Oh slingbox, how do I love thee, you stream to work, you stream to my umpc, you even stream to my phone. The fancy-pants new player (for the PC) added some snazzy new features like a guide and, more importantly, a 60 minute buffer to tivo-ify my streaming of tivo recordings… I’m pretty sure every time I recursively fast forward there’s a chance I’ll tear the space-time continuum.
5. Rockband 2 (Video Game/Uber-geek simulator): I want to rock and roll all night, and party every day; or at least a loose approximation of such.
1) iPhone 2.0 – obvious reasons
2) Twitter – this was the year for Twitter – they helped put Obama in office, Britney Spears is tweeting away and they have a business plan … oh wait skip that last one
3) Playon from MediaMall – Putting Hulu, YouTube, and Netflix on almost any UPNP device (including my PS3) has changed the way I watch TV
4) Canola2 on the N810 – makes me forget I don’t have the first device listed above
5) Songbird 1.0 – I never thought I’d see the day this little media player that could would make it to 1.0 – congrats!
1. HP Elitebook 2730p : I think this is a great business tablet pc
2. HP Touchsmart tx2 notebook : This one is the best mainstream tablet pc. I love tablet pcs:)
3. Iphone 3G : everybody loves it.
4. Samsung NC10 netbook : this one is the best netbook so far imo.
5. Logitech diNovo Mini : the best HTPC keyboard.
1.) The New Xbox Experience. While having a clunky name, the revitalization of the Xbox is a huge leap forward in terms of its User Interface. While still being a bit unwieldy in some parts, overall its a vast improvement from the “Blades” system.
2.) Hulu: One of the best places on the internet that will allow you to legally watch shows, although it could use some more HD content. Finally went public this year. 😀
3.) The netbook: In general the netbook has been an interesting advancement in technology this year. It probably is the buzzword of the year. Some of the best netbooks have systems with both discrete and integrated graphics to save power.
4.) Google Android: With the release of the T-Mobile G1, and the hacked installs of Android onto other popular smartphones (HTC-based). This is a huge improvement for the entire mobile sector, as the competition had gotten stale in terms of Operating Systems for a widespread amount of devices (which was limited to Windows Mobile and the custom Symbian OS variants).
5.) Verizon FiOS. I know this didn’t come out this year for most people, but it did for me. This is huge for competition in my area (Portland), since it was just Comcast (and DSL) as the major providers of internet. Its already forced Comcast’s hand to upgrade our service to 12/2Mb.
1. Wii fit – Looks like a very interesting way to stay in shape.
2. HP Mini 1000 -Best netbook released thus far (based on reviews read)
3. Amazon Kindle – Amazing eBook reader.
4. iPod Touch – Great gadget and it’s useful for all sorts of things like logging in to my computer remotely, adding notes, updating blogs, and a lot more.
5. Google Browser (Chrome)
Some tweetage!
http://twitter.com/GearSuper/status/1061318964

5) iPhone 3g – I’m still questing for the ultimate phone that will replace everything else in life
Kindle / Sony ebook reader: Seems like a great idea, if only they had most college textbooks would be to carry a pad rather than lugging textbooks around. Potential problem during open textbook tests lol.
HP Mini 1000: netbooks in general are great idea, but I like the keyboard size.
Android: Google mobile os, haven’t seen anyone with it in Canada but looks great from videos and pics.
Chrome: Google browser loved beta but went back to firefox as there were no addons at the time.
Aluminum MacBook: Friend has Macbook pro looks great, now can get same look for cheaper. I did like the black Macbooks too though.
1) Twitter – I’m new, it’s great, I use it with TwitterFox to keep up with everyone while I work
2) Google Search, Gmail, and Google Reader – especially new themes on gmail and the ability to gather up random goodness from all over the web with Reader
3) Dell XPS 13″ widescreen laptop – use at work, perfect size for travel, wish I owned one
4) Android – still waiting before jumping on, but i like the way it’s headed
5) Pandora gadget for Windows Vista Sidebar – I know, you’re probably laughing, but since I have to use Vista, I may as well take advantage of this slick looking plug in!
1. Optoma Pico PK-101-has style and substance & probably the best plugin gadget for the ipod.
2. Apple iPhone 3G-well I just had to, didn’t I!!!
3. Nikon D90-schools the competition where semi-professional high ameteur photography is concerned.
4. Kindle-amazon have really stepped up their game with this inventive reading tool.
5. Android-has a beautiful interface and shold soon give the iphone a run for its money.
1. Nokia N96. Best phone ever.
2. iPhone 3G. Awesamo interface!

2 – HP Mini 1000 – really, really useful
3 – Sony’s Alpha DSLR-A100 – great dSLR
4 – Philips 42PFL5603D Eco TV – looks great and uses less power!
5 – Wii Fit – it’s great that people are excited about getting fit
1. Zune 120 with the Zune Pass – all the music you can eat and you get to keep a cd every month.
2. Samsung Omini Smartphone @ verizon – overlooked but great windows mobile phone
3. HP’s Netbook the Mini – purse packing power
4. Windows 7 – making amends for Vista

1. Amazon Kindle – I added this because I’m intrigued, more than anything else. Let’s watch it and see how it goes.
2. Wii Fit – I bought this the day it came out and it has helped me A LOT. The yoga kicks butt.

4. Blackberry Storm – While I decided against it, I know people who have it and so far so good!
5. Boxee – Again, I don’t have it but am incredibly interested.
1. iPhone 3G
2. Sony’s new paper thin display
3. HP Touchsmart
4. iPod Touch
5. The new Sony Reader
1. T-Mobile G1 (Android) Mobile Phone introduced open platform for mobile devices.
2. MSI Wind / Asus Eee PC 1000 series introduced 10 inch (ideal size in my view) screen size netbooks.
3. Apple iPhone 3G hopefully will inspire third-generation data network development in the US.
4.Nintendo WiiFit will hopefully inspire more of us to be physically active.
5. Google Chrome Browser will shake up the browser market with some innovative programing.

1. Live Mesh: I use it to backup and synchronize the information of my laptop and desktop with my online desktop it is great for students.
2. Google Chrome: It still needs some fixes but it is great! Faster than firefox and ie and more secure as well. I know what everyone is going to say market share blah blah but so far it really is the most secure. That’s all I car.
3. IPod touch 2G/iPhone 3G: The idea is great but somehow they need to increase the battery life specially when using Wi-Fi.
4. Verizon FiOS: Future proof technology believes me I just took a class about broadband and we compare the different technologies (Cable, DSL, Satellite and FiOS). Fiber To The Home AKA FTTH is the future no question about it. So cable and DSL better get their act together before its to late.
5. http://www.hulu.com : At lasts a fast, easy, convenient and legal way of streaming movies online. The quality is very good and they even have anime!
1) iPhone App Store – very influential.
2) Android G1 – we’ll see…
3) Amazon Kindle – about time!
4) Hulu.com – interesting to see how a media company plays out among the online broadcasting competitors.
5) Roku NetFlix Box – pretty cool.
Windows Live – for off site storage, mostly photos so far
Google Docs – for all sorts of documents and keeping track of things (like this contest, start and end dates, and which I have entered)
Google Reader – for keeping track of my RSS feeds, and having the read list accurate from home or work
Hulu – great for watching TV with very few commercials and whenever I want (I don’t have a Tivo)
— maybe a tie for 5th would be Gladinet (for accessing on-line sources as if they were local), Google Calendar (for an anywhere calendar – even thought I haven’t used it too much), and Twitter for keeping tabs on some sites
I’m already subscribed to the RSS, I’ll go over and look for the Twitter connection.
Thanks
1) PRODUCT/SERVICE COMBO: Xbox 360 live EXPERIENCE combined with Netflix…over thousands of movies streaming to your Xbox and not a single late fee…not to say that LIVE isn’t any less my favorite, just combined, it makes for an awesome experience.
2) PRODUCT: Zune 80GB is the best ever. They keep getting better and better with ever release
3) PRODUCT: Rock-Band II because it’s got a better playlist and the instruments are quieter when played…nothing like ruining a song because all you hear is the clicking of the guitar.
4) PRODUCT: Gears of War II game because it has better online game play, graphics and improved weapons.
5) PRODUCT: Fable II Game because it has a much better campaigns, better spells and a wider variety for character building.

I’ve also subscribed
1. iPhone 3G – I actually own one as does my two sons and one daughter in law. It is not the “best” phone on the market but its appeal lies in its design. They have disposed of things that no one really wants – gimmicks if you will – and added features that people actually want.
2. Popcorn Hour A110. This is an upgrade to the model A100. Although its interface is rather clumsy its utility is incredible. This is a media player and can stream media from locally attached or internal storage as well as network and internet sources. There are many contenders in this market and some with very slick interfaces but none quite as versatile as the Sybas based devices.
3. Android – Not so much for its design or its facility as for the fact that this is a harbinger of the next generation of mobile devices. This together with the iPhone are redefining the way we do mobile devices and the way in which they are used. They are giving the established mobile phone manufacturers a run for their money. They have for too long peppered the market with unimaginative and tired devices.
4. Mobile Me – OK so this is not original but it is a step in the right direction in making the mobile device a real mobile communicator. An attempt at integrating all the services into one location.
5. Windows Live Sync. – Again this is one of a plethora of services some of which are better than others. However this is a step (a small one) in the right direction. The online services are getting stronger all the time – what with Google, MS and many other online service providers the field is extremely varied and fragmented. The only one that is really managing the integration with any success is Google but there are many good ideas – one of strongest is Live – with Live Sync IMHO being one of the more interesting.
wow..this is easy! lol thanks and merry christmas..

4. Google Chrome Browser: Quick to load pages. I like this browser, I’ll give it a couple more updates before it becomes my main browser.

2. Intel chipset x58 motherboards(several manufacturers)
The new LGA 1366 x58 motherboards feature support for both Triple Crossfire and SLI support. Enthusiasts can choose to use either Nvidia’s SLI or AMD’s Crossfire on the same motherboard.

Many people have saved hundreds if not thousands of dollars on their online purchases since this promotion began.Too bad it’s not available in Canada yet though.
5.Apple’s IPod Touch
The IPod just keeps getting better and better.

2 of my items are products offered in the prize package
1. HP HDX 18t
This new notebook is truly a desktop replacement with an 18.4-inch screen, 1080p resolution, and outstanding performance numbers.
2. HP Mini 1000
A great netbook for everyday use at a great price compared with other similar models available. It truly is the best bang for the buck.
3. Apple iPhone 3G
The new 3G version gives a boost to the already popular iPhone with some new enhancements that will keep the competition running to catch up.
4. Apple iPod Touch (2nd generation)
This new version adds items that were missing from the original and has better performance. Again raising the bar for all the others to chase.

Playstation 3
Kindle
HP Mini

NewSight’s MultiView – technology shows straight-up simulated three-dimensional video without the need for glasses.
The best digit gadget will always be my massage therapist!
My suggestions for top 5 items:
1) The iPhone 3G – it was merely a revision of the previous iPhone, but bringing the (portable) Internet into an easy-to-pocket (and easy to use) formfactor without needing to drag along even a netbook was interesting. The addition of the App Store made things much more interesting, especially when they pulled along big-name publishers to sell in their ‘little’ App Store.
2) The Nintendo DSi – While on the surface it is simply another Nintendo DS, the addition of the two cameras and photo-manipulation software has made it more than just a simple gaming platform, and something more like a multimedia platform.
3) The HP Mini 1000 – while it may be merely ‘another netbook’, the Linux version stands out for being much more user-friendly (and aesthetically attractive) than the newest eeePC or the Acer Aspire Ones. It’s also a great step up from the Mini 2133 as far as usability goes.
4) Android G1 – It’s not a really good smartphone yet, but it has potential and is one of the few fully open-source platforms for mobile devices that actually looks like it has support (unlike the Zaurus’ Linux versions) from more than one company.
5) PSP Firmware 5.0 – it’s not a product, but it introduced the ability to wirelessly connect (and download) games and videos to the PSP without needing to connect to a PC or PS3 for the first time in the platform’s history… which technically makes it the first portable player which is allowed to do so (since the demo downloading ability of the Nintendo DS has never been truly exploited by Nintendo, and it didn’t have any storage to save games to anyways).
Way cool contest!
I posted about it here.
My list of products is here:
Blackberry Storm — they were the trailblazers: good to see them still at it
T-Mobile G1 — finally!
Apple iphone apps store — what a way to change peoples lives and the way they interact with one another
Firefox 3 — one day they’ll take over IE, oh yes, one day they will 🙂
Google Chrome — very innovative; can’t wait to see how it evolves.
1) iPhone App Store – Influential and sexy.
2) Firefox 3.0 – Is the best alternative.
3) HP Touch Smart Increible!
4) iPod Touch – Great gadget and it’s useful for all sorts of things like logging in to my computer remotely.
5) Sandisk 16 GB microSDHC -More data on my phone.
1) New MacBooks — just got one and very happy
2) iPhone 3G — don’t know how I lived without it!
3) Roku Netflix Player — great ease of use makes steaming video to TV
4) Micro Four Thirds digital camera standard — finally ditching the archaic SLR mechanism
5) HP Mini 1000 — the first netbook which I think strikes a tolerable balance of compromises
1) iPod touch – with the app store it’s finally an absolutely amazing pda. On a college campus you don’t need a cellphone to be able to check emails or website during class.
2) nuevasync – This allows me to connect my google calendar and gmail contacts to my iPod touch so I’m not tied to iTunes.
3) MediaMonkey – In my opinion the best music player. It syncs to anything I’ve tried and does conversions when it needs to.
4) Hulu – I finally found a place to waste time when I need to. The interface is much nicer than the sites for the daily show.
5) Dell Latitude XT – My first tablet, it’s amazing to have multi touch on such a large screen.

I’d really like to try/own:
1. Iphone 3g – the best (Gtalk included)

2) iPhone 3G–my wife got one of these and she absolutely loves the features (especially the new GPS).
3) Blackberry Storm–I just got mine: I’m a big Blackberry fan and I think the Storm beats the iPhone hands down (email sync is a lot better than iPhone’s).
4) G1/Gphone/Android–Google is going to rule the world (and why not?) This one is open source and appears to be good enough to compete with the iPhone.
5) Google Chrome Browser–Yeah, I’m pretty sure Google wants to rule the world… Welcome to the Cloud (Computing)!
first of all, to see what I’ll be doing with the prizes if I win click on my name to see my blog
My top 5 for this year are
Google Reader’s Big New Look – I only have been using Google Reader for the last 9 months, but I absolutely can’t live without it now, being on the run alot doesn’t matter where I login just jump on and catch up on the latest news. The new look makes everything that much sweeter and easier
HP Touchsmart – at first I was really sceptical of anything “touch” I’ve used some of the old touch screens in the work environment and man were they a pain to use. I guess I was put-off by them, but when I played around with the touchsmart at the shopping mall here, it won me over. This technology is sure to help alot of people with RSI and arthritis.
Opera Mini – has been around for more than a year, but the newer versions of this little phone browser that came out this year have improved significantly. Even though my Sony E. phone is older, doesn’t have all the whiz bang apps like an iPhone… its all I need. I can still visit webpages and see them as they are supposed to look instead of some stupid stripped town text and misplaced graphics.
Gmail Mobile Application – This little J2ME app along with Opera Mini – are lifesavers for me as I’m out and about alot without any internet connection apart from EDGE on my phone.
Netbooks of 2008 – last but not least there have been a slew of new netbooks this year with so many companies (known and unkown) joining in on the party. My favourite models to stare and dream at are MSI’s and HP’s models… Not until some of the newer models did I actually consider buying a netbook. They were too slow, too small, not enough space … there was nothing good about them, but finally we have some with nice-sized hd’s and decent keyboard layouts. I will be buying one these, coz by back gets sore carting around my full-size laptop on my back riding my motorbike around town. I’ve got my eye on the Aspire One A150
1. Photoshop CS4 – content aware free transform
2. Cintiq 12WX – more natural way of drawing
3. Qik & Kyte – Mobile Video streaming!
4. macbook pro -newer materials & design update
5. xbox live experience – improved service and features
1. HP Mini 1000 – Looks like a good set of features for a netbook
2. Android – Looking to do some development on this platform
3. HP Touchsmart – Got to play with one a bit and would love to own one
4. Google Chrome – Very fast browser
5. Nikon D3X – Great looking images
1. Nokia N97 – Best smartphone ever.
2. Android (and G1) – Giving Nokia & Apple a proper fight
3. freemap.co.il – wiki mapping via GPS
4. Firefox 3 – Putting the last nail in IE6/7/8/9/…’s coffin
5. YouTube HD – at last
1. NXE – New Xbox Experience, the ability to cache games to the hard drive makes games load quicker and the 360 quieter during game play, plus many other features it added. I’m sure every 360 owner was happy when that was released.
2. Blackberry Storm – Everyone throws around the word “iphone killer”, while im doubtful there will be a phone that will knock the iphone down (user base, and sales), the storm matches the iphone in price, and beats the iphone in features. I will most likely getting a storm when my contract is over.
3. The new HP Touch smart 25′ – I never noticed the first HP Touchsmart, but this new one is the best looking AIO computer ive seen, in design and functionality.
4. Orange Box – The release of Orange Box was HUGE – Portals and original (mostly) first person, strategy game – Half Life 2 – Episode Two, a new release to the half life 2 series, continuing off of the classic, which all gamers should have and love. – and Team Fortress 2, a new team fortress 2, built well, great multilayer, and awesome game play. PLUS MORE.
5. “Electronic Paper” – I saw quite a few articles talking about improvements on it, and showing off concepts for the ultra thin, flexible screens.
WHEN it’s released its going to be HUGE.
Being able to have large, very thin screens will not only change our portable devices, its going to change ALL of our devices.
1. Nikon D60 – One of the best entry dSLR cameras out there.
2. iPhone 3G – Nice update, good looking and of course GPS
3. Plurk – Alternative to twitter but with nice timeline!
4. Google Android – open source mobile OS (that’s everything we need to know ;))
5. New macbook – Power, quality and Apple
1.Firefox 3: Awesome bar was a big feature.
2.Hulu: It’s simple to use. I usually watch classic televisions
3.Free AVG antivirus: it’s free and provide protection
4.Netbook: portable and comes with different OS.
5.HP Touch Smart: the coolest thing I’ve seen when i went to circuit city. Next Windows OS will make it even better
BHN”W
1. HP EliteBook 2730p (with dock and slice battery) – an excellently-designed tablet PC which covers the entire desktop replacement solution in a sleek way.
2. HP Mini 1000 – nice design with all the right features for a netbook and a reasonable price. The MIE version could finally break out of the pack of similar netbooks by offering a unique and desirable UI.
3. Apple iPhone 3G/iPod Touch – breakthrough UI offering fluid user experience that allows the technology to take second priority and puts the user experience on top. A perfect match of software with hardware.
4. HP TouchSmart PC – brings touch technology with useful UI to the average consumer, and more importantly into his/her home to share with the family, as opposed to a techie/business-oriented device. This move was similar to the approach that Nintendo took with the Wii by reaching out to the family, even though competitive products had better hardware specs. for the gamer crowd.
5. Microsoft Surface Technology – while geared to retail services like hotels and cellular service providers, the UI offers a compelling alternative to the point and click of the mousse, focusing on simultaneous group interaction.
1. Zune 30: It’s not new, but the new software and firmware updates are great!
2. Xbox 360: Also not new, but updated with the New Xbox experience.
3. HP TouchSmart: Seems wonderful, and I’d love to win it.
4. Netbooks in general: A great idea, and technology has advanced to the point where something that small is really useful..
5. HP HDX Dragon: The prize from the earlier giveaway. Incredible specs, and I’d love to have one.
1.Phone – HTC Touch Diamond. HTC made such good piece of software and design so even my wife want this phone. They changed how people look at windows mobile device.
2. Tablet/Notebook – HP TX2500 series. I own this tablet and i think it’s really amazing. It’s my first tablet and in my country Poland it has best price vs. specs. Finally tablet not only for tech guys for reasonable price.
3. Desktop Computer – HP TouchSmart. I’ve seen review videos and think that this computer is perfect for today family lifestyle. maybe not best for everyday work but perfect for movies, music, news and even as cooking helper.
4. Storage – Servers with MS Windows Home Server. WHS premiere was in nov/dec 2007. but this year the realised big update – Power Pack 1 that fixed most problems with this platform. I’ve got home build of WHS and it rocks. It gives me ability to share media in my home and outside it. Finally i have one place for my digital stuff.
5. netbook – MSI Wind. As many other netbooks small form factor is the key.
top 5 from 2008
1) Windows Live Mesh – the potential is huge. i hope MS doesnt drop the ball on this.
2) Android – it seems very interesting. i’d like to give it a try.
3) Fujitsu U820 – if i was going to get a ‘netbook,’ i’d get this.
4) Windows 7 (pre-beta) – i can’t wait.
5) Photosynth – it was pretty cool, though i haven’t made any synths in a while.
1) evernote – change the way how i work now
2) chrome browser – fast and stable, but waiting for plugins
3) hp touch smart – 25″ touch screen cool cool cool
4) apple alu mac book – slim beauty
5) iphone 3g
1. Sony Alpha 900
2. Sony Vaio FW Series
3. Adobe Lightroom 2
4. iPhone 3G
5. Google Chrome
1. iPod Touch – bought it around about this time last year and has been great for browsing the Internet and errr, listening to music. Also checking Facebook with the app.
2. Adobe CS3 – really got my into web design and I use it at college for my graphic design course now too.
3. WordPress 2.5 – The best update to WordPress ever, they never fail to impress.
4. Movable Type 4 – The MT Pro features such as template sets were great whilst I was using them on my blog.
5. Twitter – Possibly the best web app ever.
iphone g3– I’ll admit I don’t own an Iphone, and I probably never will. But it just so turns out they make me really giddy inside. And I constantly play with my coworker’s when I’m not in school. G3 is just souped up awesomeness. You can’t beat that!
hulu.com– Some may say it’s overrated. But I think it’s a wonderful thing. When tv-links was destroyed, I had nowhere to turn. Now that it’s beack, I prefer to turn to Hulu. House, M.D. forever! Haha. But seriously, I don’t watch THAT much TV 🙂 But I sure love the convenience.
netflix for 360–I hope you count this. Because this is amazing. No more waiting for mailing or being disappointed by a scratched disc! Everything you love INSTANTLY through your XBOX360. I haven’t gotten to try this out yet, but Christmas Break is right around the corner!
HP mini–Look, maybe I have a soft spot for adorable and small notebooks. It’s almost a shame I wouldn’t keep it if I won it. I would actually give this, as well as another lap top to the Urbana Middle School FIRST Lego Robotics League team that I mentor through my university. They’re using this crazy old Mac that can’t handle ten minutes unplugged.
Last but DEFINITELY not least–ordering take out/delivery online. Where has this been all my life?! My campus even has “Insomnia Cookies” which you can order online and have them delivered. And if you order online, you get like a free cookie or something like that haha. It’s been a while since I’ve needed late night cookies. Funny story regarding this service: My friend was in Florida as a Disney intern, and often ordered Pizza Hut via the interwebs. One night, a night of Indiana Jones marathon-ing to be exact, she ordered about 60 dollars worth of pizza, after she had come back from Florida…. She forget that the website/her laptop had saved her Florida address. Our pizzas definitely went to her Florida apartment, and after some confused phone conversation, we got our pizza 40 minutes later.
Thanks for the chance to win!
BTW, I definitely subscribed and am flaunting this opportunity on facebook. Check it out!
http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/profile.php?id=671723781&ref=name
1. Wii Fit – Probably the most innovative and interesting thing I’ve seen in mainstream gaming for awhile. I’m suprised by how fluid and streamlined gaming devices have become as compared to the gaming consoles and accessories of my youth. Ah, the memories of blowing into NES cartriges and the device itself… good times!
2. Blackberry storm – Finally an appropriate competitor to the iphone. And while I actually do like both Blackberry and Apple, it’s good to see a phone that can actually compete with the 3G.
3. Google Chrome – Love the minimalism of this browser. And although I sometimes feel it’s too minimalist, I’m finding that my pages load faster than other browsers and that makes everything else AOK with me.
4. Macbook Air – this thing is super thin – enough said!
5. Mimobot friendswithyou flash drives – in my humble opinion mimbots are the most stylistically impressive flash drives on the market. The set of mimobots designed by art collective friendswithyou is my favorite release from the company so far.
1. Nokia N96 – A great phone which is capable of giving competition to the iPhone.

I look for digital technology that can enable the film production capabilites of one person. I enjoy working alone. It comes from growing up in a family with a business, I didn’t work in,
where there was vicious competition. Women and minorities are not only excluded from filmmaking because of financing, but traditional crews will engage in hazing and take vegeance on these type of leaders.It takes one such person to break down the moral of an entire crew. I’ve spent most of my life celibate, deliberately, because it effects the mindset of artists and intellectuals. I don’t care to listen to the conversations of women or men who have been preoccupied with such things during their life – or with the stereotypes the press perpetuates, I have an extreme view on this.
These digital choices are not a preference for production on the run. More portable equipment allows a smaller number of people to be moving less weight and producing more in camera effects or creating more scenic backgrounds or whatever else is needed.
1) http://www.focusinfo.com/solutions/fs-5.asp FS-5 Portable DTE Recorder for HDV or DV camcorders, because as one reviewer noted “logging tape is the worst job in the business” 12 ounce digital recorder, to record metadata & ease workflow. On a personal level I transpose numbers, as a result of hating my family’s business and a result of libelous abuse by the community I live in.
2) 3M’s Micro Professional Projector MPro110, again for portability and to improve the ability of one person to run a film production facility. A Film Studio in an airline carry on is very promising
for persons who truly want independent filmmaking. Although reviews have been so-so, just for
pitching and previewing film this would be great.
3) Amazon’s Kindle, because the reviews on it’s viewability while reading have been favorable and my Franklin Bookman is a piece of junk for reading.
4)Panasonic’s new line of HD digital cameras, the AG-HMC150,AG-HPX170 Camcorder Hours of recording with 32GB sdhc card. Renders files to almost any format so editing solutions are variable. Picked for their combination of price and features.
5)Roland’s Edirol very portable Field Recorder, R-09HR 24bit wave/mp3 recorder. Although their
were earlier versions this revision is the ultimate in portablity. Also, a mention for the
F-1 Video Field Recorder for HDV and DV.
1. MSI Wind. Finally, netbook that I can use without reading glasses or a headache!! No more explanation required. 🙂
2. Wii Fit. Okay, I don’t play video games, but I have been really happy to see a focus on being ‘part’ of the game, and the fitness benefits that this entails. Hopefully we can move past the ‘gamer in the basement’ imagine, and view games as a lifestyle enhancing product for both mind AND body.
3. Amazon Kindle. Yes, it isn’t all the pretty or particularly user friendly to be frank, but Amazon have demonstrated that there is a market for ebooks, and in the same way the original Asus net-book with its 7″ screen made it a challenge to use, it still demonstrated an otherwise unknown market segment. I’ll enjoy watching this one grow.
4. Apple iPhone 3G/iPod Touch. I am not an iPhone user or wanter, but they have set the standard for non-business devices of this nature. I still believe Blackberry is the Queen, but for status and style, and finally 3G, Apple is off running.
5. Vista SP1. This will be unpopular, so let me explain. I consider this a top technology product, because of the amount of press and usage (or lack of) that it has gained. As the key attempt to fix Vista, (and it did, to an extent), it has continued to open the doors for open source / Apple etc. options to continue to knock on the MS door. 15 years from now, looking back, I think the release of Vista, and delays the SP1, will be seen as tipping point for the roll back of the MS dominance. Vista started the trend, and SP1 simply demonstrated an inability to encompass the entire computer sector, favouring power and processors over usable with a low energy footprint. I am not an anti MSer anymore than I am a pro-Apple, but I do think we are seeing a paradigm shift in the tech market, of which Vista and SP1 are certainly a cause.
1. HP dv6885se – This is one of HPs best laptops. It has great specs and it looks nice.
2. Dreamweaver CS4 – One of the best versions of Dreamweaver to date, looks really nice now and fits in with Adobes stuff now.
3. Firefox 3 – Firefox 3 was a great refresh of Firefox 2 and it runs better and faster than ever.
4. Windows 7 – I have only tried the beta once and only read the new about it, but it sounds like it will be very nice.
5. Zune – Its a great product that doesnt get the praise it deserves.
1-Google Chrome: really fast, simple, beautiful.
2-Android G1: simple, nice image.
3-Iphone 3G: amazing big potential.
4-HP HDX18 x18-1099ux: a wonderful laptop, really nice with that screen!!
5-Ubuntu v8.10: better than Vista, such a simple and big tool for everything!
I’ve been to the HP giveaway sites and read the blogs. I see that no one wins with their sob stories. So I won’t give you another. Our family is so HAPPY! My mom is happily disabled at 42. I have had cancer removed, happy they had to take the cervix I am 23. My 22 year old sister has cancer and weighs 86 lbs. My 15 year old sister is depressed because our family is so happy! Oh by the way , myself and my 22 year old sister have a rare inherited blood disease called Dysfibrinogenemia, only 300 known cases in the entire world. We will probably not survive the disease. But who cares, we are happy! When you win your “Magic” I hope you don’t just give it to yourself, or college brother. But to a family who truly needs the “Magic. We have an organization in OH that gives you a rebuilt computer, not the greatest, but will help you out. Only one computer per disabled family. If by the “Magic” of X-mas we win. All the computer parts and broken computers will go to http://www.atohio.org/contactstaff.html. They will help the disabled. I just wanted to share my family’s happiness with you all. Thank you.
1- IPhone 3G- The new one this year was totally awesome.
2- Firefox 3 – Faster, more secure, and, as usual, Firefox! Loved it
3 – HP Mini. Can’t be more beautiful. I want it, I want it!
4 – TiVo Here in Argentina. It’s new in my country, not “TiVo”, but it’s the same, and it’s cute (this counts?)
5 – Piriform Recuva – Love it, very useful.
I can’t think any other, I like those, but theres a lot more. Hope it’s OK.
1. iPhone 3G+App Store Combination: It rocks
2. Wii Mario Kart: Little bit of nostalgia + lot of fun
3. twitter: the new way of broadcasting
4. hulu: one place for watching network videos
5. netflix: it gets better every year
1 – Windows Home Server – Officially released in 2007, but Power Pack 1 was released in 2008 and fix a data corruption issue that made WHS reliability questionable at best. But this thing is the best backup solution for Windows clients that a home or even a small business can buy!
2 – iPhone 3G or Android – Making the internet available in the palm of your hand!
3 – Wii Fit – Most of need all the help we can get when it comes to exercise.
4 – Mozy Home for Mac – Backup, backup, backup, I can’t say it enough.
5 – CherryPal – Finally people are starting to realize that there is a huge market of people out there that need email and web access. They don’t need or even want to play the latest games that require the most power PC available. CharryPal and a number of other companies have released low-power, small footprint internet capable PCs.
1) google chrome
2) samsung omnia
3) sugarsync
4) new silver mac book
5) hp mini
Hi,
At present I am having only one electronic product.That is my Sony Ericsson z550i model.
And if this HP Magic contest works out to me, All the below will come under the list that I own.
# HP TouchSmart IQ816 PC
# HP HDX 18 Notebook
# HP MediaSmart Connect
# HP Pavilion dv4-1145 go Entertainment Notebooks
# HP Mini 1000 series Netbook
# HP Photosmart C6380 Wireless AIO Printer
And about my sharing plan,
I would like to share one of the prize I win with a poor boy,really a poor boy who is 3 year younger than me and currently doing his graduation part time,as he is working in parallel so that he can compensate his expenditure for his study. A laptop or PC is possible for him only in dreams. If I share one with him, he will be very much happy and very useful for his final year project!
I decided to donate one more for my primary school which is lagging of a personal computer to manage accounts.Its in a village and not having good infrastructure.A PC will be very much useful for them.
I decided to donate one more to my sister who is very fond of musics and movies.If I give that to her, she will be very happy !
One more will go to my dad!
1. My Iphone: Best phone I have ever had, and I have had some overpriced flag ship ones from nokia and motorola. A typical Apple product, it just works
2. Unibody Macbook pro. Ya ya another apple product that just works. Love the illuminated keyboard.
3. Tom Tom 720. Best Nav system I have used. works here in NZ, and in aussie when I am there
4. Canon 1D Mark III, Awesome camera. Love the high frame rate
5. Apple Aperture 2.1.2. Makes my life so easy, and has a excellent workflow.
1. Google Chrome – Many people I know don’t like it because of its lack of plugins and such but I find it a really fast and good looking browser. I’ve use it all the time since the first beta was released and I have yet to be disappointed.
2. Intel Atom processor – A great breakthrough in portable technology. With this chip we are now able to do more demanding tasks on smaller devices such as cellphones. It is just a matter of years until we will have cellphones as good as a modern laptop and the atom processor proves it.
3. Apple iPhone 3G / iPod touch 2G – Apple has redefined the way people look at PMPs today and I think they have had a big influence on the phone market as well with their lightning fast touch-only device. True, it has faced some issues but most of them are fixed now and even with them the iPhone 3G is truly a greak breakthrough in technology, displaying the capabilities of modern day devices.
4. All the apps at the appstore in itunes. They are AWESOME!
5. Geeks! – I knew it would be awsesome if Chris pirillo were to make a community with a forum and stuff and finally, this year he did! I was one of the first thousand to register and now we have over 10000 members! It’s really a great community and it gives you an oppurtunity to meet other geeks who share the same interests. Maybe not so revolutionary but I just love it!
If I were to win (ya, big chance), I would share two of the notebooks with my friends. We are all starting to study programming so having a laptop is essential. The Touchsmart PC I am going to keep for myself, my computer is really old and a new one would fit perfectly. I don’t know about the rest though, I will probably give away all the photo related things to my parents since they are really into photography for some reason. I will give the microsoft office to my grandmother because she needs a good writing and emailing program, I’m not sure about the rest…
Best of luck to everybody!
Top 5 on my list:
1. Iphone 3G – I love the phone because it allows me to have everyone in one device. Phone, web browsing, multimedia, music. Very useful
2. Chrome – I use to be a IE person, but the ease of use and the fact that you don’t have to have a search bar – love it.
3. HP Touchsmart IQ504 – I love the size, the look of it, the touch sensitive screen and that it is all in one…awesome.
4. Blackberry Storm – A blackberry that has a full screen that is touch…they are getting close to the Iphone, but not yet.
5. Acer Aspire One Netbook – A small, very stylish and very affordable netbook – If I did not own a Samsung Q1, I would buy this in a heart beat.
Sharing the magic,
I am planning on sharing the laptops with my son’s special needs classroom. My son is Autistic and his classroom has very out dated computers. They use the computers to help them read, write, and communicate. They can not use the latest software due to the old computers and the new laptops will allow them use the software to help these awesome kids even more.
1) New Xbox Experience
2) Ubuntu 8.10
3) Google Chrome
4) Box.net – online file storage
5) Microsoft’s Live Mesh
1. Nikon D700 – after the coup de grace that was the D3, all the clout in a smaller package seemed far too good to be true! Stellar DLSR.
2. SlingMedia Slingcatcher – I’ve had a slingbox (original) for a while and though I see the HD aspects of some of the range as pointless given encoding and bandwdth restrictions, I can’t deny that this is simple one of the most incredible pieces of technology I’ve ever owned. And doesn’t get NEARLY enough press!
3. The iPhone 3G. I’m a committed Windows Mobile fan, and will never have an iPhone but I you can’t help but applaud Jobs & Co for a fantastic effort and making handset and UI manufacturers raise their game.
4. Opera Mobile 9 for Windows Mobile. Fantastic rendering at long last. It may have been a little behind Safari on the iPhone but its AT LAST starting to turn the tide on the awful Pocket IE experience.
5. The Voodoo Envy 133 – think someone else mentioned this above, but Raoul and the boys did pull off a stormer with this chassis. Fantastic looking bit of kit to challenge the Macbook Air! If only it had the power of the Sony Vaio Z series….
Thanks and good luck all.
1. Opera 9.5
2. YouTube HD
3. Windows Live Services
4. HP Mini 1000
5. Google Chrome
Favorite 5 products…
1. Dell Studio Series; mixing the elegance and power of the XPS with the cheap factor of the Inspiron series. Isn’t perfect, but it makes a good combination
2. Dropbox; the best file syncing application I’ve ever used. It’s interface, or lack thereof, is the best idea I’ve seen for this kind of application.
3. Blackberry Storm; while it isn’t perfect, it’s nice to see someone finally go after the iPhone directly
4. Google Chrome; browse the web in style… and with WebKit. Doesn’t get much better.
5. Microsoft Live Mesh; not as good as dropbox, but it comes with 5Gigs of free space and shell integration…
1.iPhone 3G – Contains almost everything
2.Eee PC 1000H – It makes me forget my notebook.
3.Google Chrome – Speed god.
4.Nikon D90 – Really want it.
5.Mino HD – As easy as pie.
1 iPhone 3G
2 Google Chrome
3 HP TouchSmart
4 Rockbox (Alternative open source firmware for older ipods)
5 Kubuntu 8.10
1. Wii Fit – it’s getting kids who don’t exercise to start (adults too) – we’re finally seeing a turnaround in the lazy gamer attitude.
2. Sony Experia – Windows Mobile is getting some amazing hardware and this beast is beautiful!
3. Canon 5D Mark II – they added full HD video recording to an already mind blowing camera! – this thing is ridiculous and less than $3K – so many new HD video amateurs will be showing up.
4. IE Mobile 6 – with the hot new hardware comes a hot new browser that integrates Flash and Silverlight 🙂
5. HP TouchSmart PC – a compelling PC for the masses – every time I walk past one in a store I reach out and touch it!!!
Top Five Digital lifestyle products of 2008:
1. Wii Fit, I have used this for a while and it adds such a new dimension to games.
2. Adobe CS4 – Wow what a make over and with more features.
3. The Canon 5D Mark II – huge mega pixels for a low price in comparison to other models.
4. Firefox 3/3.x – Awesome web browser and better resource management.
5. Netbooks – Great way for people to stay mobile, small footprint.
1. HP 2730p – And I thought the 2710p was perfect. Excellent battery life and now with both trackstick and touch pad, jog dial, and that cute little led keyboard light that pops up. I just wish I could afford it, but I’d settle for the prize.
2. Google Chrome – This thing is fast. More fluid surfing experience. Very thankful for incognito mode (wink, wink)
3. Samsung NC10 – The best netbook IMHO. Insane battery life.
4. HP Tx2 – Multitouch screen with active digitizer on a smallish laptop! It’s like an iPhone on steroids.
5. iPhone 3G – Apple just gets it right with this one.
1) Windows Live Mesh: This is the first real demonstration of cloud computing, and I think it’s going to get exciting quite quickly. With applications and a mobile client on the horizon, this will be one of the primary ways people keep their devices connected.
2) iPhone 3G: A product that has reached 30% market share in very little time. This phone has single-handedly changed the smartphone industry. One can only imagine what the next great phone will bring.
3) Netbooks: Started in 2007 with the EeePC, this phenomenon really took off in 2008. Netbooks have made mobile computing as or more affordable than desktop computing, and with models such as the MSI Wind, the HP Mini, or the EeePC 1000, they even look great too.
4) IE8: Still in beta, but this will mark the most exciting release of IE ever, whether you like IE or hate it. Why? Finally, we will have an Internet Explorer with standards compliance! Web developers will no longer have to bend over backwards with nonsensical fixes for IE bugs. More time can be spent focusing on actual design, resulting in a better browsing experience for all of us.
5) Wii Fit: It’s been mentioned above, but it really is an innovative idea. It’s also great for society, as the more lazy gamers you have exercising (myself included!) the less you have to worry about us having coronaries when we’re 50. And given the massive appeal of the Wii, you know it’s reaching a wide audience (also since it’s been sold out since it was released).
1- Google Chrome: The most fastest browser.
2- iPhone 3G: Light years ahead of any other smart phone.
3- HP Touchsmart: Simply awesome.
4- Firefox 3: Good improvements.
5- Picassa 3: I use it every day.
Firefox 3.0.4
Zune 3.0 (saving songs from the radio to the marketplace can be quite useful)
iPhone 2.0
HP touchsmart desktop
Canon Powershot Sx10 IS
1. Hulu – Before we got a dvr with our cable service this year I would watch The Office episodes that I missed on Hulu. I don’t have to do it anymore since the dvr is in our home but I still use it for old tv shows, movies and Saturday Night Live. Very nice library.
2. Wii Fit – We actually just our Wii after Thanksgiving and love it but are hoping to get the Wii Fit for Christmas. I think it will provide some added motivation to get up and move in the winter.
3. SkyFire Mobile Web Browser – I absolutely love finally being able to browse the REAL web on my phone wherever I am!
4. Google Chrome – such a fast browser it even makes browsing much better on my slower desktop at home.
5. Google Maps for Mobile with Streetview – It was just released for my WinMobile BlackJack II and I already love it to death. I love playing with it when I’ve got nothing else to do and am not at a PC. Should work nicely along with my Garmin software to really “see” where I’m going.
Thanks much for the contest and good luck everyone!
The winning list:
1. Windows 7 – Just announced and pre-beta, but since it has already started to be available, it counts as an update this year. It’s honest to say that is just looking as the biggest release in Windows history in a long time.
2. Windows Live Wave 3 – An incredible, free solution for managing your life online. It’s cool, customizable, fully integrated and social-esque. Release Candidate so far.
2. Live Mesh – The best solution to sync across PCs. Beta, and is coming even grater in the future adding bigger possibilites. Integration with Live coming, which makes it better.
3. Zune 3.0 pc client- Incredible music player with an awesome look and social features.
5. Nokia 5800. A great cheap touchscreen phone tapping the best of Nokia and marks the beggining for something bigger. Actually cheap for being OS based.
It’s great that you are part of the giveaway.
1. iPhone 3g – The precious.
2. Fallout 3 – Huge fan of the Fallout series.
3. Gmail – Obvious reasons. A few new features, but the update for themes alone makes it significant enough for me.

5. hulu.com – Best way for me to procrastinate when I need to.
1. HP Touchsmart the coolest looking computer on the market
2. Zune 16gb The zune is an awesome media player with terrific software.

4. Windows Live
5. Microsoft Worldwide Telescope (I love this program it’s a wonderful way to teach your children about astrology)
I am not that tech savy (yet) but I am going to get there. Here are my Top 5 selections:
1) Wireless – Lets multiple family members work online at the same time.
2) Magic Jack – Interesting concept if it can deliver and at the price it says it can.
3) Small/Mini Notebooks – Fits right in with folks who have “down-sized” their living environment.
4) Wii Fit – Gets Couch Potatos of all ages off the couch.
5) HD/LCD digital TV – Forces all of us old folks to buy a larger television. Now I can actualy see what is on television.

2. iPhone 3G – Great phone at a great price!
3. Nintendo WiiFit – For helping to make video game consoles more socially acceptable by introducing an entirely new audience.
4. Firefox 3 – Keeps on improving.
5. Playstation 3 Home – Has alot of potential and it’s free!
It’s hard to whittleit down to just five, but here goes:
1) HTC Touch Pro – What a gorgeous phone/PDA! with a better QWERTY keyboard and better screen resolution than most similar devices. This looks to me to be THE converged device.
2) iPod Nano, 4th Gen.- I am glad the “fat” Nano is gone, and the old form factor is back. Great video, 16gb, and the accelerometer. WOW!
3) Nikon CoolPix P80 – 10megapixels at 13 frames per second with vibration reduction and 18x optical zoom. My dream camera!
4) Hulu – Like I needed another reason for being a couch potato! But it’s a great source for those videos you’ve been looking for.
5) 64GB USB Thumb Drives – Can you say versatile, long life, portable backup media! Iknow I can.
1. HP Mini 1000.
2. MacBook Air.
3. Nikon D90.

hello there 🙂 ,
1. Iphone 3g – im not an apple fan, and i can say im not an iphone fan either, but got to admmit iphone is what , right now, is more close to what technology will be in a near future, i believe we will see the OS in a device like a paper, just a very very slim screen, no buttons, nothing more .

4: Firefox 3: For work and fun
5: iPhone 3g
1. Asus EEE-I have one and love it. Only problem with it is the main 4GB SSD is a little slow
2. Firefox 3-My favorite browser
3. Google Chrome-My 2nd favorite browser, has some nice features that make it stand out
4. Windows 7-Have been following it since earlier this year, am dying to test the Beta coming in January
5. Hulu-helps save space on my dvr
1) Squeezebox Boom — an awesome extension of the wonderful Squeezebox Classic. I definately want one…
2) Dropbox — Linux is supported out of the box
3) Canon EOS 50D — I know what I’m getting for Christmas!
4) ASUS EEE Box PC — Small, low power computer, great as a media server, firewall, …
5) Google Street View for New Zealand — Now I can see where *I* live…
1 – T-mobile Sidekick – since my pc died this has been my lifeline!!!
2 – ASUS EEE PC – would love to have this pc!!! it’s so small and cheap!

1) Intel Core i7 – With their newest CPU, Intel takes another big leap forward in performance.

3) Blackberry Storm – Blackberry’s jump into the touch screen phone business is a great competitor to the iPhone and takes advantage of some of the deficiencies with the current iPhone 3G.
4) Google Chrome – Google tremendously upped the performance and security bar for the browser market by introducing Chrome. While it may never take up a large market share, creating a new open source browser that sweeps away the competition will be beneficial to the whole browser market.

I just twittered this giveaway: http://twitter.com/Elkaye/status/1063647472
Thanks!
1) Google Chrome – in particular the V8 Javascript engine is a big step forward. Unfortunately, Chrome doesn’t work with Roboform.
2) Firefox 3 – This release of the browser took a big step towards dealing with the runaway memory usage of the previous versions.
3) iPhone 3g – significant upgrades to this phone.
4) HP Mini 1000 and netbooks/UMPCs in general – a handy size for anyone doing word processing, e-mail, or web surfing on the go. I take minutes for several nonprofit Boards, so would find this really useful myself.

1. iPod Touch (great entertainment device and no need to switch carriers – a relative steal)

2. Google’s chome- competition means better service
3. Firefox 3- same reason as above. I use 4 browsers when I add the ones from home and work. Good way to test them out.
4. myspace music- we’ll have to see where it goes in the future
5. ASUS Eee 900 Series- I’m seriously thinking of buying one.
1. GeForce GTX260 (216 core version) . why? awesome performance, great price, CUDA.. its just great
2. the HP TouchSmart. why? well, i dont own one, but its just too cool.. the easy of use, the appeal.. i think its THE gadget to have (and show off to ur friends)

4. Wii and everything that has to do with it. why? well, it wasnt just a fad.. it still keeps rocking the sales charts and has new great games all the time (like wii fit which everyone mentioned)
5. Steam. why? its simply the best way to buy games. package deals, old games you cant find anywhere, no worries about cdkeys.. and this year it has expanded and improved a lot
1. XBox New UI with NetFlix application. How awesome can it get. Instant movies
2. Zune – Its simple but rocks.

3. iPhone 3G – This phone pave the way to other touchscreen mobiles and quite frankly it is one of the best original ideas i’ve seen.
4. HP HDX 18 – I really think this is the new age for full HD experience, it will a new view of the web with HD.
5. Solid State Drives – I didn’t mention any brand names because there are quite a few brands out there. SSD’s are probably the next biggest thing for really fast personal computing. I hope it becomes cheaper soon with much bigger storage capacities.
Top 5 Digital Lifestyle Products/Services:
1. iPhone 3G – Re-inventing the iPhone is the iPhone 3G, capable with using the faster and more advanced resources of mobile computing and communication technologies like never before! It also makes the best widescreen iPod, gaming device, web-surfing device, and communications device… all in one!
2. Mozilla Firefox 3 – If you don’t know Firefox and its 3rd major release, something’s wrong.
3. Midomi – Find a song by singing, humming, saying (or typing it), or grabbing it (putting the microphone near the original song playing).
4. Google Chrome – Second best browser, below Firefox.
5. Wii Fit
I seriously hope I win!
Product: Latte’s Neon 7 – What a great phone! If you’re like me, and you just need a phone and not an insane two-year, all-binding contract plan, picking up the Latte 7 was one of my BEST buys! It is a micro-SD expandable, touch-screen ultra-mini smart phone. Love the phone to death!
Product: iPhone 3G – While I do not own this one myself, my friend does, and I can’t help but be pretty impressed with it. I’ve never been an Apple fan myself, but with the amount of applications available for the iPhone, and the gaming capabilities? Almost enough to make a girl convert to Apple products. C:
Product: Wii Fit – OH COME ON! This is just amazing! Who doesn’t love the wii fit? It gives you a reason to work out while being quirky and fun. Not to mention, it works quite well as a physical therapy aid. Finally, a way for gamers to get up and get active!
Service: Twitter, and all of its wonderful spin-offs – Now, while Twitter came out in 07, it has had a number of significant updates and fixed issues since last year. Twitter is the definitive geek tool. It lets you know what your friends are doing (or lets your friends know what you are doing!) in simple microblogs, right to your phone! You don’t have to sign onto a website, you don’t have to read a million other peoples updates if you don’t want to. And now with all the widgets, third party programs, and add-ins to other existing websites and programs, twitter is a welcome addition to any geeks arsenal of social networking services.
Service: ChaCha – How many times have you been beating your head against the table trying to remember the name of the old guys who sit in the balcony in The Muppet Show? Okay, maybe not too many. However, if you have a question that you need answered, all you have to do is text ChaCha, wait a few minutes, and a real live person will text you back, hopefully answering your question. Best of all, its free!
My top 5 Digital Lifestyle Products/Services:
1) Logitech diNovo Mini so that I can control my media anywhere in my house

3) HomeDock Deluxe- So that I can hear my music freely with using earphones
4) HP Dragon HDX Laptop- I need to replace my old HP Pavilion dv1000
5) Sony SVR 2000 DVR- so that I can watch my favorite shows anytime I want or missed

1. iPod Touch (2nd Generation)
2. HP IQ506 TouchSmart Desktop PC
3. Blackberry Storm
4. Logitech Squeezebox Boom
5. Google Docs
Evernote – Truly saved my ass when I forgot what _that_ address was. Wrote it down on a piece of paper, took a photo of it and uploaded it straight to the web. Unknowingly left it at home, but hey, Evernote came in and saved the day!
iPhone 3G – I know this appears very common, but this phone is just plain amazing. Especially after it’s jailbroken as well! It’s now a gaming device, mobile internet device (Use it to book movie tickets!), and pretty much a lifestyle change.
Hulu – Hey, I may not live in the States but there’s always a VPN to back me up! Great service for a great price – $0! Allows me to watch my favorite TV shows legally without even downloading it.
Live Mesh – Just works, surprising for something coming out from Microsoft! Plus on a Mac too! Anyway, I use it daily to sync my notes folder on my Mac to my Windows Tablet PC
Dropbox – Syncs my important notes/receipts to their server, plus it’s free, so why not?
1. iPhone 3g (jailbroken and now unloked)

2. Dell Mini 9 – Great price, nice options, very portable, has Ubuntu 8.04.1. What’s not to like?
3. Google Chrome – still a little green, but fast, practical and well designed.
4. Facebook – contrary to some, I like the changes that have been made. More adult than MySpace and great fun keeping in touch with long lost friends.
5. Dell Ultrasharp 2408 WFP – the best consumer monitor available at a reasonable price. (Just remember to calibrate it first!).
1] HTC Touch HD: IT definitely iterates how an Windows Mobile based device should be! Love that VGA Screen!!
2] Firefox 3 : Being an IT Student, I understand the dangers of the online world, and this browser definitely makes being online a much safer experience! Kudos to the add-ons!
3] HP HDX 18 : Smaller brother of the Dragon, with just as much firepower! DEFINITELY, on my wish-list!! ( Wish I could afford it though :S )
4] MS Zune 120GB : A device that has it all – Looks, features, price advantage! Who knew that Apple’s PR would still be able to con people into buying that stuff :\
5] DRUPAL CMS (drupal.org): Its free, fast, new, better, easier to implement, classier, and definitely has more eye candy!!! 😀
Cheers!!
Reeve
1. It’s Sony VAIO TZ which is the best laptop i have come across. The reason why i chose is because when you have to buy a laptop and 2 choices are given to you – A Compaq Presario (1 gb ram, no webcam) or A VAIO (2 gb ram, 1.3 megapixel camera) then what will you choose?
2. It’s Ipod Nano 4g. Why? Because the price of A Ipod Touch is Very high due to extra taxes. I mean what the hell is this?
3. A browser called Minefeild. It’s developed by Mozilla. Actually i hate slow speed so i decided to pick up the worlds fastest Browser (even faster than Chrome)
4. The next one was G Os (Google OS). It is a operating system which is 100 times better than Vista and G OS is free of cost
5. I downloaded the latest version of stardock to enhance my computer which has vista running not G os. It looks cool and makes me think that it atleast has some qualities of mac.
Hope I win!
1. MacBook Air
A truly thin and light-weight laptop, MacBook fans cannot miss that out.
2. Live Mesh
Using it right now, a great choice in among all backup services.
3. Windows Live Wave 3
It comes with a branch of applications and also services, all of them have relationship with each others, brings you a brand new online lifestyles.
4. WordPress 2.7
Although the version number is 2.7, but it is almost like a new experience in blogging. The new admin dashboard and comment pagination are my favorites.
5. USB 3.0
When new devices come with the USB 3.0 port, the experience will be totally different, it is going to be really fast!
If I won in this contest, I will share the prizes with my family. 1 laptop and 1 netbook for my brother and sister, another laptop for my father, and the TouchSmart PC for myself.
Thank you, and good luck everyone.
1.- GOOGLE CHROME has made my life so much easier and faster!!! plus all the apps are pretty sweet
2.- Black Berry Curve from NEXTEL push to talk and all inclusive for 99 dlls!
3.- the new xbox 360 experience i think is very friendly and cool
4.- hp touchsmart OF COURSE!!!
5.- OK WHY NOT the IPHONE even if i hate that its every-freaking-where!!!
1.Mac book Air – cousin owns one and it is the greatest laptop made
2.iPhone 3g – one word”Awesome”.
3.Dell Mini 9 – why wouldn’t you like it
4.Blackberry Storm- latest in technology and gret for work
5.Wii- though it is not portable it has good family time involved
1. Adobe CS4 Master Collection – a more significant upgrade over CS3 than CS3 was over CS2. Integration between programs is fantastic.
2. Acer Aspire One – bought one for my wife and it (mostly) beats the pants off my Asus EeePC. More generally, I think the Atom processor should get a mention, since it really opened up the netbook market in a way that previous processors didn’t allow.
3. Twitter – although it didn’t come out this year, you could argue that it started working this year. Also, the purchase of Summize and integration with the main Twitter site has been a boon for finding that one tweet when you can’t remember who tweeted it.
4. iTunes Genius playlists – while it doesn’t always work 100%, it’s a significant improvement in intelligent playlisting.
5. Diigo – Not just because they won the Open Web Awards for “Best Social Bookmarking”, but because they really are the best. Integration with blogging platforms and Twitter allows you to more widely share the content you’re reading. It’s like stream-of-consciousness blogging without all the awkward bits.
As to what I would do with all this tech, well, obviously some of it I would keep, but I also work at a school, and education budgets being what they are, I would use the two laptops, at least, in my classroom. Also, I have little need for yet another printer, so I would pass that along to someone who needs it.
Thanks for the chance to win the contest!
1. iPhone 3G – the HYPE that clicks!
2. Firefox 3 – best Web Browser in the world. Also secured.
3. Nokia n96
4. Sony Cybershot T77
5. HP Mini 1000
1) Mozilla Firefox 3 – The new version fixes many bugs, improves standard compliance, and implements new web APIs. I love Firefox, what can I say.
2) Google Chrome – could be a contender, which is why I like it. Competition is healthy.
3) MacBook Air – I like it because it’s keeping the other laptops on their toes.
4) T-Mobile G1 – I like it because it uses open standards.
5) Wii Fit – It’s good to exercise.
Thanks for the giveaway!
1.) Macbook Air – this is so light and very futuristic-looking notebook.
2.) The new HP Touch smart 25 – the best looking AIO computer i’ve seen, in design and functionality.

4.) Opera 9.6x – in my opinion, best and fast web browser.
5.) HTC Touch Diamond. – great and stylish alternative for iPhone.
1. Firefox 3
2. Ping.fm

5. Zenbe
1. Blackberry 8310 device OS 4.5 update. Added great new features including video player which I’ve used to make instructional videos for work.
2. Viigo mobile reader update 3.0.439. I love to read, and this sure beats carrying a book or newspaper around. The update added more channels I now use including emergency news, Craigslist, sports, and Daily Lit.
3. MySpace for Blackberry. Surpassed 1 million downloads in the first month, what can I say?
4. Google Maps for mobile release 2.3.1. My favorite map program; this update added street view and walking directions.

2.Wii Fit because my aunt has one and I love it. I can get active and actually have fun.
3. Blue-Ray Disc Player model BDP-S550. Would love to have one because I heard it’s not to complicated and easy to configure.
4.Touchsmart- Who wouldn’t want one. It does everything.
5. Canon HD camcorder model VIXIA HG21. Just a beautiful camcorder. I would also love to have one of these.
1.Google chrome- New very stable and easy to use web browser.
2.Iphone 3G – communicate and have fun anywhere anytime.
3.EEE PC – Best for surfing the net on the go.
4.ATI HD4870x2 – Best Gaming experience ever.
5.HP Touchsmart – The best family Entertainment anywhere in the house.
1. iPhone 3G 16GB White – (I bought mine in August 08 and haven’t looked back. One of the best smartphones I’ve ever owned and I love having access to my emails, music, camera, etc – all in the palm of my hands)
2. TomTom GO 930 GPS – (Work keeps me on the road 1000 miles a week and I have found it so much easier to get from one client to another with my GPS)
3. LG BD300 Blu-Ray Player – (I can receive thousands of movies from Netflix with online on-demand service directly to my tv, no more forgetting to mail back my Dvd’s)

iPod Touch
HP Mini 1000
Don’t know what I can say about these that hasn’t been said already – but these just rock. And, hey, this contest rocks, too. Thanks!
1) Mozilla Firefox 3
2) Google Chrome
3) Aluminum MacBooks
4) Netbooks; Wind, EEE PC, Inspiron Mini, etc.

1. Blackberry Storm – unfortunately Santa will have to wait ti bring this one
2. HP Touchsmart – how cool is that thing?
3. wii fit – gets kids and adults off the couch
4. firefox3 – ie needs to get with it
5. HP mini 1000 – small and portable
I would be giving this package to the Stone City Christian Academy, where my wife and I volunteer and our children attend, as I already have access to a few good computer systems.
First up, thanks a lot for having this contest!
Here are my five picks (in no particular order):
1) HP 2730p Tablet PC (upgrade to the 2710p) – if I could choose a business laptop, this would probably be it. It’s a well-equipped and sturdy machine, has the flexibility of a convertible Tablet PC, it’s pretty light & thin and has great battery life.
2) BlackBerry Bold 9000 – nothing against the iPhone, but I like how RIM has updated the original BlackBerry form factor. Elegant design, good specs, classic BlackBerry keyboard, GPS and WiFi and a battery that deserves that name.
3) Dropbox (www.getdropbox.com) – I’ve been using the free 2GB account since it came out of closed beta during TC50 (having received the beta invite a day earlier 😉 ), and it’s pretty much made my USB thumb drive obsolete when it comes to transferring files from one machine to another. Since I can also access all of my Dropbox files on any machine through the browser, this is really all I need. The client app works great, and if you add the local folder to the Windows SendTo: folder, you can copy any file to your Dropbox folder with a right-click.
4) GMail gadgets and Remember The Milk (https://www.rememberthemilk.com/services/gmail/gadget/) – access all of your RTM tasks and create new ones from your GMail account. I have been using MS Outlook to work GTD-like and create tasks from emails, but this could very well be the online replacement.
5) SlideRocket (www.sliderocket.com) – I used SlideRocket after getting an invite for the beta and really like how they work hard to make this the best browser app for presentations. You can select images from an online gallery, order printed copies, collaborate on presentations, invite others to see them and more. The UI is good and I think they do a good job in communicating with bloggers and users via their newsletter.
Happy holidays everybody!
1. Google Mail themes – now my inbox looks better
2. WordPress 2.7 – It works better, it looks better, it has new functionalities
3. Ubuntu 8.10 Server and Desktop editions – they are great. I really couldn’t find anything that I didn’t like about them.
4. iPhone 3G – it looks better than the old version and the 3G really adds some more mobility to it.
5. HP TouchSmart IQ816 – it’s a really awesome all-in-one desktop, far better than the most of them (Dell, Apple, Gateway)…
1. new MacBooks
2. Netbooks in general
3. iPhone 3G
4. Diigo
5. Firefox 3
I like these products.
The Kindle
Mini Notebook/Netbooks
The onslaught of qwerty keyboard phones. (Lots more of them to choose from.)
Ooma Phone and service
Touchsmart computers
Thanks.
1. netbooks – which will become ubiquitous even if they are underpowered.
2. touchscreens – which will ramp up heavily after the release of windows 7.
3. GPS units – even though they’ve been out for awhile, this year the prices have dropped to the point of being a necessity.
4. the fledgling TV video sites – cable companies should be looking over their shoulders. Within a decade the cable companies will be merely an internet conduit to content (if they even exist at all).
5. Chrome – A fast browser with minimal cpu usage, from a formidable Microsoft opponent.

Hey, there you go
– HP 2133 Netbook – A great way to travel and stay connected
– Live Mesh (Microsoft) – Work in different places and still have everything at hand OR Windows Live Sync – For these special occasions where you work in different places and do not have access to an admin account.

My list of best of 2008 is-
1.iPhone 3G : The UI is supercool.
2.Nikon D60 : Satisfies my need for a DSLR
3.Google Browser – Chrome : Super fast
4.HP Touch Smart: For its look and coolness quotient
5.Android G1: Open source says it all
1. Macbook’s/pros – they made the whole trackpad a button – a feature I thought of YEARS ago.
2. Ubuntu – the release of 8.10 – windows has a MAJOR competitor rising up.
3. Adobe CS4 – what more do I need to say? 64 BIT!
4. iPod Nano – nice, thin upgrade, much harder to find a rip off of the new designs due to the way they are manufactured.
5. Youtube – Finally brought in HD!
Top Five – this is hard for me but I am going to try:
1. Cell Phone for my daughter to help me keep track of her – with videos so she can share some of her life with me.
2. WII – a fun way to help me get in shape and to spend time with the whole family.
3. Canon Digital Camera – to help sparks those happy memories when you are feeling blue – although mine just recently broke.
4. Sony Camcorder – same reason as above, but I have to purchase a VCR in order to load the tape onto something.

I am the single parent of 4 teens and these are the top 5 that my kids want this year, so I guess they are the top 5 that have most affected me, as I have had to explain why they are out of our range: 1. I POD TOUCH 2. I PHone 3g 3. Touch Smart PC ( I would love to have this for myself, but I digress…) 4. The X Box Live subscription and finally, 5. The Netbook. My kids would make great use of these computers and software for their schoolwork, now they have to go to the library for all PowerPoint presentations, and even their papers since we don’t even have a printer. Thanks for sponsoring this great contest.

Well, here’s my list:
1. Google Chrome – groundbreaking in terms of web browsing speed
2. StumbleUpon – there was no blog post I published that I did not promote to be stumbled
3. Digg – yes, same as #2, my blog cannot survive with out these cool bookmark places
4. Internet Explorer Beta 2 – finally a faster and more standards-compliant browser from Microsoft
5. Twitter – to spread my daily gossips!
These are my digital lifestyle this year.
Hope I win and thanks for the opportunity.
1. HP Mini 1000-What a neat little notebook.
2. HP Touchsmart-HP is getting into the WOW acclaim.
3. Wii Fit-How to lose 20 pounds in front of your TV.
4. Blackberry Storm-Verizon’s answer to the AT&T iphone
5. Hulu-Saves space on my HD DVR.
I would give the entertainment notebook, media receiver and entertainment DVD’s to the Eastern Star Nursing and Retirement home for their use in creating a theater room for the enjoyment of their 270 residents. The home is a not for profit facility that provides loving care for all who live there. This donation would provide a further upgrade that would be enjoyed by many people.
http://www.iowaoeshome.com/
This is a wonderful gesture by this website and HP. Tis the season of giving and it’s a wonderful idea to have the winner further share the sponsors’ generosity with worthy causes.
1: Hulu: I love TV! As a kid, I was a slave to it because you HAD to watch a show right when it aired or you would miss it and have to wait months for a re-run! These days, just flip over to Hulu and you get GREE tv and movies! And the shows are CURRENT! No more waiting around for the re-run 🙂
2: Eye Fi Wireless Camera Memory Card: It used to be that only the professionals had wireless digital cameras, but this baby turns ANY digital cam into a wireless one!
3: Alienware M17 Gaming Laptop: I WISH! 😀
4: Canon Vixia HD video cam: Someday I’ll venture into video, so why not have the best equipment out there 😀
5: Xbox Live Experience: This added a lot of great upgrades and features to Xbox Live and I heart Xbox Live 🙂
Thanks for the great contest 😀 If I win, I’m looking forward to sharing this pack with some deserving people 🙂
1. Aluminum MacBook
2. iPhone 3g
3. HP Mini 1000

Acer Aspire One
Seagate 1 TB external hard drive
Wow, my top 5 eh? Alright here it goes!
5. Stupid Clone Computer (Updated Early ’08)(Asus)
So, I could probably think of way more things, but I use the computer a lot; so bam, there it is. My computer runs like a bag of sticks, and it is so random, though the new cd drive has improved it quite a bit. It’s not even a name brand one though :O
It’s junky and the monitor is like massive (like a brick) but again, I use it a lot, so here it is on my list.
4. Finepix Digital Camera. (Late ’08)(Shoppers)
Okay, this one has to be on my list. It would be last, if I didnt have a clone computer ^-^ Basically I use this for my photography (wow, like they didnt know that >.>) Photography is one of my hobbies, and I use this quite a bit. Though most pictures come out blurry/cloudy, it works most of the time.
3. Sandisk Sansa E280 V2 (Early ’08)(Firmware – Sansa site)
I chose this because it is sleek, functional, and it works. I do not leave the house without those headphones in my ear, and the mp3 in my pocket. Though some troubles came up with my older version, the new one is fantastic — especially after they recently added the new firmware update for the system, it’s a lot faster! It semi-looks like an Ipod Nano, but way cheaper (by cheap, i mean less expensive lol)
2. The Toaster (Early ’08)(Wal-Mart)
Well i basically chose this for obvious reasons. I like toast. Our old toaster hit the rocks, and we decided on buying one of those hi-tech-ish ones. haha. My toaster is a modern, 4 slice toaster. Haha — it even has a bagel and reheat settings 🙂
1. DVR (Early ’08)(Eastlink)
(for those who dont know, this is for the television — digital tv)
Okay, this one is also obvious. TV = Love. joking. but still, i watch tv a lot (and i mean A LOT)
1. Zune with the 3.1 update – great added features to what I consider to be an already great product
2. Live Mesh – mesh.live.com – still in beta, but this platform shows lots and lots of promise
3. Acer Aspire One – cheap netbooks are all the rage, but this is the one I got and I love it.
4. HP TouchSmart – I don’t have one, but that interface is amazing
5. Xbox Live Experience – a nice update to the Dashboard and functionality

Some of these I have, most are wants I wish I had:

5. Twitter
1. Wii Fit – I don’t yet own one, but I am facinated by the iniative the Japanese have to make Americans get up off their asses.
2. HP TouchSmart – Don’t own, but this has got to be on the most innovative things done with a computer in the last few years.
3. Blackberry Storm – I really think this will give some good competition to the iphone- and since I’m sticktly anti AT&T, then this is the closest thing to an iphone I could get on verizon, yet another cool thing I don’t own
4. DVR- I am simply amazed at how we ever functioned without this peice of equipment, couple that with on demand, and there is almost always something worth watching on tv.
5. GPS- We have an in dash tom tom in both cars, and I could not be more thrilled with them. What is great is the fact that ours detaches and I took it to LA with me this may. It was so funny to the Terminator/Govener navigating me around the streets of LA. It certainly made our trip far less stressful, and definatly more entertaining.
blackberry storm wish i had one.
blueray dvd player they do have better picture quality
robotic vacumer-i just hate vacuming and for no other reason then that
the whole wii system, i love that you have to get off your butt to play

1. Canon EOS 5D Mark II – It’s a DSLR camera AND a high definition camcorder… what else does one need?
2. Eye-Fi Wireless SD Card – makes the process of photographing (especially in studios) a whole lot easier 😀
3. Asus Eee PC – it basically revolutionized the whole perception of mobile computers.
4. T-Mobile G1 – it’s a lot cooler than it seems 🙂
5. Google Chrome – looks like it’s made its impact on the web.

3. Canon Pixma MP620 Wireless Photo Printer, Copier, Scanner
(Our printer is from the stone age and I SO want a wifi printer!!!)
4. Nintendo DS Lite Game System – Metallic Silver (USGSVB)
Figure we should at least figure out what the rage is about?
5. Acer P Series 22″ LCD Monitor (P221W) Again…need to upgrade my desktop–the monitor is even older than the printer. SIGH.
Thanks for the awesome giveaway…C’mon..admit it…you must feel like Santa just about now. Give us a couple HO HO HOS!!!

Don’t have any of them but would like them all!
1) iPod, My wife and daughter still think they rock.
2) Zune, My yopugest daughter likes the new game add ons that were free from MS.
3) PS3, Waiting to hook it up, a Christmas thing, for the kids, or maybe the big kid 🙂
4) PSP, intergration with PS3 and new PC software.
5) Sony eBook, my daughter just loves to read.
I would share most the system with a needy organization, Heart and Hands which provides help to needy families.
Mmm, digital lifestyle, yes. Here are my top 5 faves this year:
1.) Mint.com — This financial website gives me a quick snapshot of my finances, budgeting, etc. and allows me to access it anywhere and to share it easily with my wife–two problems that never really worked for Quicken and M$ Money.
2.) Sprint’s HTC Touch Diamond WinMo phone — I’ve never had a good smartphone before (except when testing them for work), and now I’m finding that having this info on hand all the time is priceless, from scheduling appointments to responding to emails that used to go unanswered.
3.) Google Maps on my GPS phone — (Yes, it’s related to the above one, but…) This is fantastic–a few quick glances at my phone screen allowed me to navigate in unfamiliar parts of Boston on a recent trip.
4.) ASUS WL-520gU wireless access point/router — For years I’ve had crappy old-model Linksys WAPs that needed to be power-cycled weekly. So far, this little box has been invisible–working as it should.
5.) Hulu.com — (was this released in 2007? I’d never heard of it then…) I haven’t had cable or bunny ears for my TV for 7 years or so now, so if I wanted to “watch TV” I had to rent DVDs of old TV shows. Now, my Sweetie and I can watch episodes of our favorite shows like Arrested Development on the laptop anytime.
Apple I phone 3G. Because you needed an excuse for sleeping outside a store.
Blackberry Storm. The QWERTY keyboard gets credit for uniqueness. Haven’t seen anything like it, but will trigger a string of Me Too designs.
HP mini 1000. Slim and beautiful. It’s the Posh Spice of netbooks, except the HP deserves the attention.
Amazon Kindle – Who would have thought that this little device could get so many people excited about reading!
Windows 7. Because after Vista, absolutely ANYTHING looks like the product of the year.
My top ones would be:
1) The Blackberry Storm
2) HP Touchsmart
2) Garmin GPS
4) Playstation 3
5) HP Photosmart
1. Smartboard–this is not super new tech, but it’s the very first time I have ever gotten to use it and it’s damn fine. How would I teach without it?
2. Macbook Air– I’d really really like one
3. Raverly–an online interconnected knitting site that is just about as awesome as it gets. who knows if it will ever get out of the beta stage
4.Ipod nano–very very cool
5. wireless external harddrive–how did I live with out this?
About me and what I would do if I won:
I will be graduating this December from the University of Georgia with a degree in science education (and I’m just so darn excited about it!) and about half of the prizes I plan to take to my biology classroom (classes start Jan 7th!) I will be down in Wayne County (South Georgia–practically it’s own state considering how very different it is from those liberal NORTHERN counties). Most of South Georgia is really poor, it’s basically the armpit of America. It’s face meltingly hot in the summer where it’s 85% humidity and degrees at three AM. There quite a bit of sulfur down there (making the water taste funny and the air stink–but produces those famous Vidalia onions). But those students deserve a great education too. I don’t have worry nearly as much about violence in schools (the school system I substitute in right now has guards with guns in the elementary schools). I think my teaching style would fit in very well down there. A whole of the population (about 60%) make their money from hobby farms which fits with my very…organic teaching style. I used to be a horticulture major and I just love how the knowledge in the classroom translates into the world around us. I want to bring scientific thought and process to every day life.
My second goal in teaching is bring cross-curriculum come hell or high water. Cross-curriculum is tying music, poetry and essays to science. I plan to have a project where each student has to read a science fiction book and do a report that must compare the science in the book with the real science. I also have warm-ups planned everyday and on Wensdays this will be a science poems. Some of the authors are Federico Garcia Lorca, Walt Whitman, Emily Dickinson, John Haines and George Bradley. I feel so very strongly that the lack of crossover in the subjects makes us more compartmentalized as a culture.
Now about how this prize package would help in my quest of learning and education? Well the HP mini would become the science department’s computer used in the field for data collection. There would be a sign up sheet so that all the classes could share the wealth (though I plan to try and be out in the field at least once a week on average). Another laptop will be in my computerless classroom for student use.
I am also very excited about the printer and photo packages. I firmly believe that grades are not the only way to evaluate student progress. Portfolios are a much better way to show student knowledge. The student offers artifacts and reflections on their quest to learn a topic. Pictures are a very important part of this process. They are taken to help show live action artifacts or artifacts that are too big such as insect collections.
My mother (who is retiring and planning to travel) will get one of the laptops, the premium one (she’s worth it–trust me). I admit that I really really want the TouchSmart for myself (I have no TV and this sounds like an awesome upgrade to viewing movies on my laptop). I think the student-teacher Microsoft office goes without speaking and the movies will all be donated to Toys for Tots. I would be happy to send pictures of everybody getting their prizes (and my new tricked out classroom!) as proof if I win. Please help me tech my room!
I’m too poor, don’t have a cell phone or digital camera or camcorder, don’t have a blackberry or a gps, don’t have any video game consoles, don’t have a lcd or plasma tv, don’t have a tivo, don’t have hd-dvd or blu-ray, don’t have a notebook puter, don’t have a psp, don’t got a zune or ipod or any mp3 player, ain’t got nuttin but pain and poverty.. which is exactly why i need to win this one!
1 “photosynth”.net the site is great but the technology potential is more than that imagine it added to maps sites (way better than street view)
it can be implemented on any web site too like “http://memorabilia.hardrock.com”
2 “TouchFLO 3D” an interface or shell to windows mobile used on HTCs replacing the not-very-friendly default one
3 “Tmobile G1” android brought the mobiles to the open source world (symbian going opensource is a response i think)
4 “firefox 3” text box at any site supports spell check, add a bookmarks with one click, you can pause downloads exit firefox completely and resume later,the [awesome bar] is awesome, and more
5 facebook connect/google connect
1. iPhone 3G – Simply the best smart phone
2. Alumunium MacBook – It is just gorgeous.
3. Intel Core i7 – Next generation Intel processor.
4. Picasa 3 – The best photo organiser with new picture viewer.
5. Google Chrome – The fastest browser on earth.

Thanks for hosting the giveaway, thanks for the random draw.
1. Windows Live Essentials BETA Refresh – I have been using this since the first wave 3 beta and have been impressed with the new improvements to the beta released just a few days ago, such as Calendar synchronization between Live Mail Calendar and Windows Live Hotmail Calendar. Also, I like the new social networking features built into the suite with better federation across services such as Windows Live Home and Windows Live Spaces. I also like the ability to upload data directly to services such as Flickr, Live Spaces, YouTube, (with the use of add in) through Photo Gallery. You can also import contacts from Facebook which is probably the highlight of this social network.
2. Intel Core i7 – why? finally, the Frontside Bus is a thing of the past, making this baby screaming fast, no more middle men, your data just travels from processor to memory.
3. Rockband 2 – Playing this game with the great music is just total fun.
4. iPhone 3G – Don’t own one, but the hype, anticipation, launch made this one unforgettable and the App Store just makes me want to own one.
5. HP TouchSmart – I have saved the best for last. Why is it great? Simple, its a system designed for the future. Why I know this, when I saw a demo of Windows 7 rnning on this amazing PC at PDC 2008, I said, I need to get me one of these. HP has done an excellent job with its own Touch implementation, but when a user upgrades that system to Windows 7 next year and combine it with multi-touch, using computers will once again be a blast.

Tai’s Top Five:
Here are my faves in no particular order of preference:
1) Tivo HD +Netflix – I will never have to visit or even pass by the video store again. That’s what I call moving forward!
2) Mino HD – I have the very first generation of the mino the one that had the 30 minutes of storage capacity, I thought it was convenient and cool to be able to capture everything and anything and put in on my computer instantly, I can now that in HD and with much higher capacity so I can capture even more great memories! SWEET
3) Slingbox (Slingplayer 2.0): I don’t own this one yet, my cousin does, and I fell in love with it, I’m still trying to devise ways to distract him so I can nab it……Hmmm……..I’ll keep that pinky and the brain plan to myself 😉
4) iPhone – I don’t own the iPhone itself, but come close with the iPod Touch 32gb which I absolutely love, of course, the apps that are available for the iphone and the touch keep me distracted for hours on my commuter bus into the city. It ‘re-kindled’ my love for games again, which leads me to my fifth choice…..
5) Amazon Kindle – Not hard to figure out why Oprah is fascinated with this little dynamo. For those of us with little to no space this device is a lifesaver. I think the Kindle is costing Ikea money because let’s face it, who needs a bookshelf anymore? 🙂
1. Wii fit and balance – great for excercise and lots of fun
2. Twitter- love connecting with others
3. Iphone- way better phone then my LG’s in the past
4.Ipod- my fourth one but love to have 1,000 songs to listen to
5. Olympus waterproof camera- I love to travel and like that it’s waterproof
1. Palm Treo 800W- I finally broke down and got a smart phone and retired my 5yr old pocket pc. It was geeky fun to setup the tethering to my laptop while on vacation at the beach!
2. Belkin Networked USB Hub- I have 4 computers on my home network and needed to rework the printer setup. I hated leaving the computers on just to share the printers. This hub by Belkin allows up to three usb devices to be handled on a ethernet port.
3. Brother MFC 240C Multi-Function Printer- Because of my new setup with the Belkin hub, I went in search of the most value with the cheapest price. I was able to get this for $45. It does everything you can ask for at a great price!
4. Carbonite- Online file backup. It’s easy to setup and makes accessing your home files remotely easy.
5. Lenovo IdeaPad S10- Of the new netbooks, I like this series because of the neat color combinations.

in no particular order…
B) Panasonic Lumix G1 – the camera (almost, still needs video) i’ve been wanting for more than a decade

1.SLACKER :- Finding new music is always one of life’s joys and web services like Slacker have helped. But now you can get access to undiscovered tunes on a portable device.
2.SMART GPS :- No longer content with simply providing directions from point to point, manufacturers are starting to pack more and more features into in-car GPS devices.Those on show at CES include the ability to download movie times, find a parking spot and avoid the traffic.
3. Eye-Fi :- To share photos quickly and easily a wireless camera is a must. But for those people who do not want to invest in a new device help is at hand.A company called Eye-Fi have developed a series of memory cards with built in wi-fi that automatically convert your camera into a wireless device.The 2GB cards automatically connect to a wi-fi network and can dump photos to a folder on a PC or upload them to social networks or photo-sharing sites.
4. AIR GUITAR :- Cashing in on the success of the first three Guitar Hero games is the Guitar Hero Air Guitar Rocker.The battery operated toy is the first licensed product not associated with the popular PlayStation 2 and Xbox 360 game.

1) Browser wars: Firefox 3 vs IE 8 beta – where do I begin? 🙂 I love the improved bookmarking experience of both browsers. However, firefox is my poison of choice. The plethora of plugins available for firefox make it the clear winner. However, IE 8 beta came out with a new tool i.e. private browsing mode and I have it installed on my laptop so I’m still evaluating IE 8. Nevertheless, for all of Firefox’s buggy nature, I’d rather use a buggy firefox than Internet explorer 7.
2) Foxmarks – after countless computer crashes and not finding my exported bookmarks, i read about this service and it’s an online bookmarking tool that can encrypt and save your bookmarks and firefox passwords. In one word: awesome.
3) Camtasia studio 6 – they revamped their signature offering and it blows everything else in that category of screen capture/recording out of the water with its support for hd recording, etc.
4) Windows Live Essentials products – I can say that this is one of the best things to come out of Microsoft this year. If you haven’t tried their live beta (for now) products particularly live photo gallery beta and live movie maker beta, you are missing out. they’re free also so give it a shot!
5) WordPress 2.7 – I love writing and this release simply makes blogging a pleasure once again. Major changes: upgrading wordpress core files and plugins through the admin interface, a revamp of the admin panel and more.

Here’s my five:
1) SlingPlayer 2.0. Great improvement over version one, especially the included channels guide.
2) Netflix Roku Player. Relatively economical and neat way to move movies from PC to larger TV screen.
3) Live Mesh. Moving toward great all-in-one sync, backup and access your data everywhere solution.
4) Livescribe Pulse SmartPen. The addition of recording audio along with digital notes; the utility of a Tablet PC and OneNote for those times you’re not carrying the Tablet.
5) Google Android/T-Mobile G1. Something other than an iPhone!
1. Dropbox and Microsoft Live Mesh – Because they allow us to be really mobile
2. Microsoft Surface – because it is a technology that will finally take as one step closer to the sci-fi future that we are all waiting for
3. Opera 9.6 and first builds of Opera 10 – because they never cease to innovate and still are the top browser available.
4. Google Chrome – because they looked at the whole thing from a different angle and came with some really good ideas

My top five list for 2008 includes items that I do not yet have, but are on my wish list.
1. H.P. TouchSmart–My desktop is geriatric, almost as old as I am? I’ve seen the TouchSmart demonstrated, and the touch feature is an exciting innovation.
2. iPod Touch–I love the connectivity, and hope to get a Touch sometime soon.
3. iPhone 3G–I’d like to have this phone, but only if it is available for my wireless network.
4. Blackberry Storm–I already have a Curve, and would love to upgrade to a Storm, although I may have to wait until my contract renewal date.
5. Lastly, I love the Sync system that I have in my new Ford Focus. It is easy to use for hands free calling, and has a variety of media inputs to play my favorite tunes, including a USB slot. I can put music files on a thumb drive and play them directly using Sync. What a wonderfully useful invention, and a really fun techy toy, too!
If I am lucky enough to win the HP package, I would like to keep the TouchSmart, and give the other computer equipment to the Asheville-Mountain Chapter of the American Red Cross, where I volunteer, to use in our work with Emergency Services, providing immediate emergency assistance for those who have experienced a disaster. See my blog for a fuller explanation of what we do, and links to news about the American Red Cross.

1) iPhone 3G : Clearly a necessary upgrade that confirms the iphone as an industry changing device.
2) HTC G1 : Not so much the phone as the first use of the android plattform. a demonstration and development device.
3) Firefox 3.x : A solid evolutionary update for my favorite browser (honorable mention to chrome in the same category).
4) YouTube HD : A much needed improvement in quality for the most widely used video publishing service.
5) AMD/ATI 4xxx Graphic cards family : after trailing for a long time this highly successful release brings much needed competition to the GPU market.

2.) Panasonic 50PZ800 Plasma TV
3.) Canon SX100 Digital Camera
4.) Amazon Kindle
5.) Klipsch CS700 Entertainment system

2) Nokia N series (nowadays we need to be mobile! and this phone is ready to help us)
3) a MacBook (I love design, and I feel great when I can go wherever I want with my computer — and I love the mac’s style too)
4) a touchscreen-enabled desktop computer (a couple of brands -HP included- are starting to advertise this kind of computers!) (since the Surface and the iPhone, these kind of displays are here to stay, and it’s very nice to do some stuff directly over the screen -but please, don’t eat fast food while browsing photo galleries, the screen will look awful after that!-)
5) GMail (I love to see my email presented in such an efficient way like GMail does.. filters, keyboard shortcuts, mail threads -conversations-, themes -well, we don’t need this, but it looks pretty-, and all the labs gadgets)

Should I be lucky enough to win, I would share the prizes with Pace Juvenile Center in Des Moines, a non profit organization to help troubled youth.
Top Five Digital Lifestyle Products or Services this past year:
1 – iPod Touch – I have no cell phone, so this is just a great option to get all the iPhone stuff without a phone.
2 – Google Android G-1 Phone – I’ve heard great reviews of this product…there’s even talk it could unseat the iPhone. We’ll see, but the keyboard looks awesome.
3 – Google Chrome – Slick browser with some very cool stuff other browser haven’t thought of. Although the ‘recent sites’ feature may be a little too revealing for me.
4 – Pandora – Service on the go, even now available on cell phone and non-PCs! It learns and has exposed to me music I never knew, but now love.
5 – Wii Fit – The Wii itself is a great idea. It may not be much activity, but at least it is activity while playing video games. The Wii Fit pushes the Wii past even being called a gaming console. It’s practically an appliance now.
Thanks for the opportunity to win this amazing package.
1- Wii Fit: A powerful tool to lose my love handles.
2-. Canon 5DmarkII: The device to videotape my weight loss.
3-. Hp Mini 100: NetBooks are the best thing for system administrators, I’d use one to configure wireless routers.
4-. Unibody MacBook: A sexy laptop to match my sexy, fit self.
5-. Blackberry Storm: Same reason as #4.
Thank you for this awesome opportunity to win terrific gifts and be able to share with others:)
My top 5 are:
1. Iphone 3G – anything but “just a phone”
2. Macbook air – I don’t have one yet, but after having a 7 lb. laptop, now a macbook pro, I can’t imagine anything much better than a light device with all of Apple’s normal brilliance
3. Ipod touch – much easier (at least for me) to use than the non-touch ipods… so much to access right at my fingertips
4. Blackberry storm – I don’t own it, but I would love to – definitely the iphone’s top competitor, with many advantages to boot
5. Wii Fit – changed the landscape of babysitting three boys
Thanks, again:)

5. ipod Touch 2g
1. Windows Live Mesh: Has saved me on multiple occasions, works like a charm, and has very high potential.
2. iPhone: Has raised the bar on phones and interfaces, and I think that it will continue to shake up the market
3. IE 8: Because not everyone is Firefox indoctrinated. And because, relative to previous IE’s, IE8 is a huge leap forward.
4. NXE + Netflix: The New Xbox Experiece just gave me a new console for free, and totally one-upped the one-up that Xbox handed PS3. Having netflix is the icing on the cake.
5. Hulu: The new direction in television distribution and viewing. Should be integrated with Mesh like the BBC demo.
1. Xbox360 NXE
2. Google reader, not that I like the update that much…
3. Firefox 3
4. µTorrent 1.8
5. Windows 7

2. Kindle Reader – on my wish list
3. Ipod Touch – on my wish list
4. HP Touch Smart – on my wish list
5. http://www.iwantsandy.com – unfortunately this fantastic life organization system went offline permanently on December 19.
1. Kindle
2. Wii Fit
3. Nikon D60
4. Google Android (and Chrome)
5. HP Touchsmart
My list of Five…
1. Kindle… I love reading. Plus can read anywhere and not have to store the books on my shelf
2. HP Mini 1000… Have to admit would make live easier having that little buddy
3. Blackberry Storm… DH is drooling over it
4. Ipod Touch… hmm yeah DH is drooling over this also
5. Firefox 3… Honestly I just started using it but wow I’m liking it very much
1. apple iphone- i really want one bad just cause lol i want the GREEN iphone but its a special hard to find!
2. xbox 360 and fable 2 i love the first game and cant wait to play the new one!
3. 42 inch plazma tv cause i want one
4.Nikon d80 cause im a photographer and its time to switch from film
5. sony blu ray player
1) 3M Micro Professional Projector – I use this at school to show digital photos and movies anywhere and anytime I want to my students.
2) iPod Touch- I need this to make using the projector even more fun!
3) HP Touch Smart- I am drooling over this. Let me win!
4) Google Chrome
5) My son says Guitar Hero World Tour- We will see how much fun the family has when he gets it fot Christmas
If I won, I would use some of the computers in my 4th grade classroom. The ancient machine I have in my classroom is unusable. What a shame for a teacher who loves to use technology!
1- i-Phone – sexy, sleek and stylish
2- Wii Fit – great way to keep the family fit together
3- Sony DSLR-A300K – fantastic price for extensive features
4- HP Touch Smart – perfect for my digital entertainment needs
5 – TOMY xiao Digital Camera with built in printer – capture then print within 60secs, so cool its the new age polaroid!
Thank you HP for this opportunity.
Merry Christmas.
1. Google Android – Let’s think about this, a web company that has entered the CELLPHONE arena…and they don’t suck! Definite potential to help push the overall technology to new boundaries – and to keep WinMo, RIM and iPhone on their toes.
2. Windows Live Mesh – One of the better-baked Live services in my opinion. Synchronization in real time, along with Remote Desktop Assistance integration. To me, it’s VERY mighty.
3. Crossloop – As the “go-to” guy for computer support for my family and friends, this free program makes VNC almost foolproof. This program changed my lifestyle by letting me NOT have to drive 30 minutes each way at 10PM at night when some PC emergencies occur. Learn more at http://www.crossloop.com .
4. Wii Fit – Another one to think about, Nintendo has decided that exercise and video games can go together. Recording stats and tracking progress in a fun way, and it’s not just a one trick pony like “Dance, Dance Revolution”.
5. MicroSD cards – I just got a Blackberry Storm for work (it’s for testing, I swear!). The unit came with an 8gb MicroSD card. Let me say that again, EIGHT GIGABYTES. On something smaller than a fingernail and roughly the weight of a postage stamp. What these flash cards do for the capabilities of music players, cellular phones and smart phones (not always the same device) is amazing, and usually not at the expense of the devices’ form factor.
My top 5 new tech products/services are:
1) Microsoft Dreamspark (www.dreamspark.com): free copies of Microsoft Developer tools for students to download including Windows Server 2008.
2) The new wave 3 Windows Live services + software (http://www.windowslive.com/): These services and software really help me keep my life connected online 😉
3) Microsoft Photosynth (http://www.photosynth.net/): This is the coolest thing to happen to photography in years!
4) Adobe Acrobat Buzzword (http://buzzword.acrobat.com/): My favorite online word processor – doesn’t beat Microsoft Word, but it is the next best online!
5) Windows 7 (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/default.aspx): The best looking OS – and I can’t wait to run it!
1 Amazon Kindle……wow!

3 – Firefox 3 – I don’t use anything more. Still fast, easy to use, and feature-rich.
4 – Google Chrome – Just as Firefox is keeping IE on its (elephantine) toes, it’s nice to see someone introduce something that in some ways shows up Mozilla. Especially for it’s multithreading.I still use FF3, but you can never have enough good alternatives.

1. Prius (yes, this fits the digital lifestyle)- if you wanna exclude that, put in GPS here.
2. Tivo (guess we can count it for this year since they only get better!)
3. Slingbox Pro
4. iPod Touch
5. HP Touchsmart PC (salivating here…though I know it doesn’t help me cause)
iPod touch- because before it was ‘just an iPod’- but, NOW- oh, the things I can TOUCH!
Tivo- do I really need to explain how this sucker improves each day? Of course ONLY the latest & greatest will do, kudos for putting in an option again for lifetime service!
PS3- since it had significant improvements this year. Oh man, I can play with this gadget forever, everytime I think I’ve learned all the ‘new’ tricks- I hit on another one. This is like gadget heaven!
Harmony remote- because NOTHING is out of reach now! On, off, on, off- it’s like my wife- only easier to turn on!
Nikon d90 (or is it d80)- oh, I’m not allowed to upgrade yet. (see post above on the harmony for explanation) Because it can make life look AMAZING, nevermind the gadget factor on this…

5. Netbooks become popular. Asus makes a market. Enables the “Starbucks laptop”, one carried in the car just for quick use at Starbucks/Panera/etc.

Here are my choices for the top five digital lifestyle products or services of this year:
1. The Apple iPhone 8GB Cell Phone – This state of the art product tops my list because it combines the iPod, a digital camera, smartphones and even portable computing to one device, with a widescreen display and an innovative input method. To me, this is a genius invention on Apple’s part.
2. The 1.86GHz Apple MacBook Air – I chose this because I have always had such fantastic luck and experiences with all of my apple laptops over the years and this one has taken everything Apple ever invented to the next level! It’s Intel Core 2 Duo processor with 1066MHz frontside bus makes it a very powerful machine!
3. HP’s iPAQ rx5000 Travel Companion – I chose this product because my husband travels a lot for work and this product has been a constant companion for him. It literally serves as his personal organizer, with daily necessities such as contacts, calendar and to-do lists all included, in addition to full Windows Mobile 5 functionality (access to e-mail, Microsoft® Office software applications and more). I also has a world clock, converters and other useful functions—and traffic, weather, travel guides and points of interests. This is a must have for anyone who spends a lot of time on the road.
4. Epson Artisan 800 Printer – I chose this product because it offers 5 in 1 with Wi-Fi: Print / Copy / Scan / Fax / Ultra HD Photo, Wi-Fi and Ethernet networking, and it prints two-sided printing saves paper (making this an eco-friendly product). I have seen the output from this printer and the quality and speed is phenomenal!
5. Nintendo Wii Fit – I chose this because you can play, interact and stay fit all at the same time. Fitness is extremely important for everyone of all ages to incorporate into their life and this has literally caught on like wildfire to all people of all ages! It is fun, entertaining and healthy!
I also Twittered about this giveaway! Here is a link to my Tweet:

Lastly, I also subscribed to receive your email updates and I am looking forward to receiving them in the future.
If I were to win this, I want to work with you to donate everything except for one notebook to the Hillside Children’s Center in Rochester, New York. They are in desperate need of computers for the children that live there. I have wanted to do something to give back to my community and this organization is most definitely at the top of my list as a place that is so deserving. Thank you for the opportunity to enter.

1. Twitter – My family (including mum & dad) has just started using twitter this year. We live in 3 different countries spread all over the world and this has taken the place of sms (txt msgs) for our daily communications. Saving heaps of money and keeping everyone up to date all at once!

3. Unibody Macbook Pro – Great MAC, and this one still has Firewire – AWESOME! 😀
4. Android – I’m not a fan of the look of the T-mobile G1, but i am absolutely a fan of Google’s Android. I will be on the Android bandwagon as soon as there is a NICE looking phone to go with it (i’m hoping Sony Ericsson will deliever soon!).

Must confess I don’t own any of these. I’m still waiting for 8 track tapes to come back in vogue.
LG Lotis in the purple paisley ,I plan on having this very soon
IPod touch it looks like so fun
Amazon kidle reader, I love tisandtthere are so many books for on here already
WII Fit ,this makes exercise fun
HP Mini1000 this I would love to have for my daughter ,maybe next year
1- iPhone 3G – too expensive to buy, but makes life pretty easier and fun
2- Nokia 5800 xpressmusic – Like an affordable iPhone, but with much more things in it (like a better cam, ability to record movies)
3- CushyCMS – makes handling sites for newbies a lot easier and does not require any HTML or any other programming knowledge at all
4- Phoenix from Aviary – You like photoshop and need to use it at all times but you just formatted your laptop and don’t have the installation cd with you? No problem. Let the online photoshop replacement, namely Phoenix, do the job for you. It does everythin Photoshop can and it is only and it is FREE.
5- Intel Core i7 processors – they are not cheaper than their predecessors, but give much more perfomance compared to them. Sadly I most of us can’t afford it though.
1. Hp Mini 1000
2. Ubuntu 8.10
3. Sprint Touch Pro

Wii Fit – My son is not into sports, so this is really the only exercise he gets into.
HP Mini 1000 – My sister-in-law got one, I am way jealous.
Blackberry Pearl – Does everything I need and is the perfect size.
Ipod touch – Can pull it out at a resturant and let the kids play games to keep them occupied.
Sirius radio subscription – With the XM merger, Oprah and Howard Stern in one place!
Thanks.

A beautiful hand held device with a bunch of cool features like enhanced media player internet its a organizer it has sms mss built in GPS and video recording i choose this because of its really cool features and it would be a cool phone to have.
2: Canon EOS 450D Digital SLR Camera Kit
I choose this because it has a DIGIC III image processor for fast accurate image processing its large 3.0-inch LCD display and its 12.2-megapixel CMOS sensor for its high quality photo prints and posters it would be awesome to have.

1. iPod Touch
2. HP IQ506 TouchSmart
3. Blackberry Storm
4. Wii fit
5. Sirius and XM combining
My top 5 are
1. Samsung Omnia – just got it and love it. I like the touch much better than the Blackberry Storm since I am use to iPod Touch.
2. Live Mesh – this has been a great service from Microsoft that allows me to sync folders between computers as well as have remote access. Still waiting for Windows Mobile feature so I can sync with Samsung Omnia.
3. Evernote – I just love this notetaking application. I can sync my notes between my laptop, desktop and mobile phone. Plus check my notes anytime online from any computer.
4. LastPass – it is my password manager of choice. Works in both Firefox and Internet Explorer. Introducing a form filling feature as well that makes life easier.
5. Feedly – I use this as my primary feedreader. It syncs up with Google Reader and imported my feeds from Netvibes. I like the magazine feel of the front page and easy ways to share and save items for later. Works only with Firefox though.
Blackberry Storm- on my wish list

ITouch – they are just SO amazing!
Geocaching app for iPod Touch – we’d save a ton of money on ink if we weren’t printing off all the
information we need when we go geocaching!
Wii fit – I think this is something I might actually do! And if not, it’s a lot smaller than my
exercise bike and aeroglide!
Windows 7 – sigh…. I convinced my husband that our kids need to live in the 21st century, even
if we don’t, so we bought a Vista computer for our daughter. If I had a dollar for every time I’ve
sworn at Vista, I could buy all the digital equipment on everyone’s lists here!
??? – I don’t know what they’re called, but they’re like tiny laptops. Technology is just SO amazing!
. iPod Touch – Great gadget and it’s useful for all sorts of things 2.Nintendo Wii My kids love this
3. Amazon Kindle – Looks like an interesting eBook reader.
4. Wii Fit – Looks like an interesting
5. HP Mini 1000 – Awesome netbook released by HP
My entry probably won’t qualify because I really can’t tell you what top five were launched or had a significant upgrade this year. But I’ll give it a shot. This is based on what I use:
Facebook. They changed dramatically and many people didn’t like it. There are still groups forming to protest the new Facebook even though it’s been awhile since it launched. I say, get over it people. They are not going to change back even if your group gets 1,000,000 members. Trust me.
Twitter. I recently joined Twitter and find I’m using it a lot. I’ve got it set up to update my Facebook status, which is kind of a mixed blessing. On the one hand, it’s nice that I can update two at once, but then when I want to update my Facebook status, I have to decide if I want to do it through Facebook or Twitter.
Geeks! This is a social networking site for – you guessed it – Geeks. It’s run by Chris Pirillo, of Lockergnome fame, on the Ning framework. It’s kind of fun. I was heavily into it at first, but my usage tapered off for awhile. (I’m going to school full time and working full time and not doing the best at either right now.)
Vista. I heard all the scary rumors and bad-talked it as though I had first-hand experience. Then I tried it. It’s not that bad. There are some minor annoyances, like having to click everytime I launch a program (yes, I know there’s a way to turn it off, but I haven’t found it yet). And I know this sounds bad, but I really like the new designs on the card for the various solitaire games. Sometimes I need to do the easy stuff.
Looking at a couple of the other entries, I will add this:
Adobe Creative Suite CS4. I’ll be getting this when I get my student aid money for this next semester. I’m trying out a 30-day trial right now. At school, we have mostly CS3 versions. So, I’ll be getting used to a slightly new interface and abilities on my computer at home, but using an older version at school. (I’ll also need a new computer, because I don’t have one that can support those programs.)
1) Samsung NC10 – there continue to be naysayers to the netbook phenonmenon, but a cheap and light laptop is just what I need on my day to day travels! The Samsung NC10 sports industry leading battery life and keyboard.
2) Google Chrome – a great and fast browser with a very unobtrusive UI — perfect for the limited screen real estate of the 10″ netbook screen
3) Sony Reader PRS-700 – ebook readers with touchscreens are the next UI advancement in the segment!
4) HTC TMobile G1 – as the first mobile phone with the Android OS, this phone is revolutionary in its own right, and hopefully it’s the start of a successful OS
5) Blackberry Thunder – despite the criticism, Blackberry’s foray into the touch screen world is to be commended!
Here is my list:
1. Wii fit – I have one and use it all the time. I really like it
2. Mozilla Firefox 3.0 I like this so much better than IE.
3. Apple iPod Touch I do not have one but everyone seems to love it
4. hulu.com I do not get hardly any tv channels and so this is wonderful.
5. netbooks so many were released in 2008 and really fill a need in the marketplace for lightweight computers on the go.
Thank you for having this contest. The winner will be thrilled!

Canon 5D Mark II
Optimum Wifi
1. Iphone 3G:
Ningún otro reproductor lleno paginas en revistas, periodicos o blogs. Por su interfaz deliciosa con pantalla tactil, tienda en linea y gran variedad de aplicaciones, revivio el mundo de los telefonos inteligentes.
2. Nokia N96:
Graba y reproduce video con resolución de DVD, camara de 5MP, excelente GPS y su hiperconectividad lo hacen el celular con las caracteristicas deseadas para un telefono.
3. Apple Store:
Abrío la puerta a un nuevo negocio.
4. Intel Atom:
El nacimiento de una nueva generación de computadoras, cada vez mas pequeñas con procesadores a la altura.
5. Google Chrome:
Super estable, confiable, eficiente y muy veloz.
1. Amazon Kindle – this nifty little device is amazing – and amazingly convenient! I go on business trips frequently, and I’m on the go most days, so I love being able to put multiple books, newspapers, and even useful academic journals on the Kindle to be able to keep up with my work and the world around me wherever I am.
2. Microsoft Zune 120 GB – its erratic and sometimes painfully slow software aside, I’m glad I took the leap and chose the Zune over the iPod. I love its FM feature, am starting to get into the world of the “social” and finding other people in the Zune network who share my taste in music, and this year Microsoft finally unveiled the 120 gig version, which is just enough room to fit my music and video collection.
3. Wii/Wii Fit – another technology that lives up the hype. At first I was addicted to the Wii tennis, but I’m getting much more use out of the Wii Fit – I’ve been able to take up yoga without the embarrassment of trying it in public, and I can jog in the comfort of my home instead of wrecking my knees on the pavement. Thanks, Nintendo!
4. iPhone 3G – Complements the usefulness and functionality of the Kindle by allowing me to access my email and important sites during my travels.
5. Google Reader – I love being able to finally organize all of my favorite blogs, RSS subscriptions, and news sites in a “one stop shop.”
~~~~ I think the top 5 are:
1. Nokia E71
2. iPhone 3G
3. Android OS
4. Hulu
5. Wii Fit
~~~ Count me in too please!
Macbook Pro
Ipod Touch
Wii Fit
the Smart Shopper (their ads are getting to me)
iPhone 3G
1) Mac Book Air–fast and light and a head turner.
2) Sling Catcher from Sling Media – allows you to provide TV programming anywhere. The sling projector views your computer monitor on your TV and the Sling Player for TV allows you to share TV content with other TVs in your home or at remote locations.
3) WildCharger Pad charges any compatible device without wires and it charges 5 devices at a time.
4) The Livescribe smart pen–records the notes you write and then you can organize them on your pc. One Note can do this as well, and has a lot of other functionality, but it needs to operate from a PC form factor
5) Ipod Touch using Live Synch and the app store. Live Synch allows you to access folders on any pc on your network from anywhere. Mobile Me costs $100 a year; and Live Mesh is still in embryonic and imperfect form.
New Iphone
HP mini
Xbox experience
HP Touchsmart
Google Chrome
1) ANDROID = It’s the best thing to ever happen to the cell phone market.
2) Xbox and netflix + the new xbox experience = Microsoft for life.
3) HP Mini 1000 = every time a mini is produced an angel gets its wings.
4) HTC HD = I would give my left nut for one.
5) HTC diamond and touch pro. The products that HTC makes, is proof that love is real.
In terms of sheer “Energy of Impact”, both “kinetic” and “potential”, I have a couple at the top of my list.
#1: Digital Interconnect, via cable – both digital TV and cable modem service. It is NOT obvious, except as a negative, i.e. something “missing” (data errors), but MY network in my neighborhood was recently updated with new-and-improved distribution gear, and I’m no longer able to tell that I’m out on the END of a long chain of echo’y repeaters.
#2: The latest digital cameras, with higher and higher pixel-count CCD devices, give film quality enlargements at the cost of large storage requirements. For the purposes of this entry, the recent availability of the 16-gigabyte SD card gives some useful “elbow-room” when making use of that increased data-rate.
#3: X10, manufacturer of wireless home controller devices, perhaps more infamous for their insistence on throwing in bathing beauties to motivate sales of their products, just came out with a converter to allow piping high definition video into your PC in a USB format.
#4: The iPhone (and the recently peek-sneaked iPhone Nano) is bringing serious “street cred” and opening up doors to the ongoing evolution of wearable gear with significant horsepower and meaningfully useful apps.
#5: The 3M MPro110, a battery powered projector designed to attach to pretty much ANYTHING which can source image data, and project it wherever you find convenient wherever you are, is an impressive device with some impressive potential.
There’s LOTS more stuff happening out there, but we’ll just have to keep coming back here for updates on it, eh? I’m in, right??
1) Navic Admira – it will change the world of TV advertising by lowering the barrier to entry. This product/service, that no one has heard of, will be farther reaching than any other product or service listed.
2) iPod Touch – smaller, lighter and more portable than a dvd player for my 3 year old
3) Tivo HD XL – the best yet from the people that invented time shifted TV.
4) Hulu – for when I run out of available tuners in my Tivo HD XL.
5) Canon G10 – SLR brains in a Point and Shoot form factor. Fast enough to keep up with the aforementioned 3 year old.
1. Blackberry Storm – very cool & useful.
2. Google Chrome – a browser with class
3. Wii Fit – so much fun you don’t know you’re exercising.
4. Amazon Kindle – a truly portable library at your finger tips.
5. Flip video camera – so easy to keep handy and easy to upload videos
Thanks for the contest.
1. Blackberry Bold – the long wait was soo worth it. Now if only we could get it with a provider other than AT&T!
2. Canon PowerShot SX10 IS – 10 MP digital camera with **20x OPTICAL ZOOM** and Canon’s incredible image stabilization technology. Love, love, love it!
3. Mozilla Firefox v3.0.5 – ’cause the awesome bar is, well AWESOME!
4. iPod Touch 2nd generation – makes me smile just thinking about it! 🙂
5. Sirius/XM – the best of both worlds.
1) HP mini 1000 – it’s small and convenient. Love SUSE even though I love Debian
2) Twitter – fun and easy to use – http://www.twitter.com/queenoftheclick
3) Wii Fit – hanging out with family isn’t so boring any more
4) Amazon’s Kindle – Oprah loved it & everyone followed
5) Flip video camera – it’s fun and easy to upload videos to share with friends

Flock Web Browser- makes surfing the web sooo much easier and a lot more fun, plus i’m officially addicted to facebook and twitter b/c of it, everyone should use this amazing browser! and now that it’s 2.0 it’s freaking better than ever!
Google Chrome’s Incognito Window – we all know what it’s for, and that’s what makes it so great!
Hulu – Pretty much every show in HD, yay!
the feature on youtube (and other video places) that you can slide to a certain point to watch that part, instead of having to have the whole video load, it seems to have caught on this year (does that count as a service???)
Google Labs – freaking awesome you can do pretty much anything with google labs! i wish i were married to google, i’d have google’s google babies, i’d have a whole google of them!

My 5 favorite Digital Lifestyle Products/Services of 2008:
1) Windows Vista – I just love the simplicity and resourcefulness of the new Windows OS. Its very visually appealing and is simple to use.
2) The HP TouchSmart PC – An incredible piece of technology . Implementing the uniqueness and interactiviy of touch in a beautiful package.
3) Samsung Omnia – I love the looks and features of this phone . Might be a competitor of Apple iPhone.
4) Mozilla Firefox – I simply love firefox . Its speed and ease of use , along with the ability to get lots of addons like dictionary , maps etc – has greatly increased my productivity and so I’d say its one of the best products of 2008.
5) The MacBook Air – it just goes on to say that – the best things come in the smallest of packages heheh.
There are many many more things i’d love to mention but ill end it here .
I must be easily amused — number one on my top five items list is the iPod shuffle I got this last year to use while I’m working out — grooving and moving to the music absolutely makes working out fun!
Number two should probably be Paypal — not clear just what updates or enhancements they may have come out with in this last year, but it’s ALL pretty much new to me, since I really just started using it, and it works really well for more and more things.
Number three I’d say should be our new digital camera — digital stabilization makes a huge difference in the quality of MY pictures.
Number four goes to the Livescribe digital Pen, with the doodle-linked indexing into recorded lectures (been there, done that, eh?).
And number five, last-but-definitely-not-least, the WiFi-capable digital picture frames that can be used to receive and display all KINDS of useful stuff — particularly once you realize that while intended for images, those images can consist of a whole range of graphics, from “You’ve got mail”, to snapshots from video camera inputs into your security system, to scheduler-driven alarm-clock “reminder messages”, etc… Make ’em just a little bit more “addressable” and interactive and I’d have them all over the place — and finally start feeling like we’re living in the 21st Century.

1. Our new Whirlpool Duet Steam Washer and Dryer, that’s right it has digital controls, Hopefully that new technology will eventually have a utility payback for the price paid!
(Why are you folks all putting down PC/Computer based Technology?)
2. We’ll see I now jump right in with the same thoughts as everyone else, which is the New Blackberries (Curve, Bold and Storm). Oh they are beautiful pieces of equipment, darn near got me and the wife deciding to upgrade phones and service. Of course that will cost us more per month than we are paying now. I see why folks called the old ones as “crack berries”. I think I turn it into a crack berry for me!
3. My works laptop! Yeah that’s right a Business Laptop, Why it has allowed me to start Telework from home!
4. HP Photosmart all in one Printer C6380, well heck I already got one right before the contest started. HP must have thought that Model was one of their “golden” toys, as they offered it as part of the contest! Obviously I picked a good one, So that one for sure will get shared with a Special Friend.
5. Last but not least is the Sony Vaio Laptop I just bought, (really was not ready to buy) but one of the Circuit City’s by me was going out of Business , I just thought that high end model was too good of a price to pass up. It’s a Christmas Present! Yet I still had hope of winning this HP Contest! Which then would leave me with then one heck of a decision? What Laptop would go to that Special friend?
My top favorite picks for this year are:
1. Wii Fit–Santa’s bringing me one for Christmas. A friend reports that it is a very fun way to get and stay fit. 2009 will be the year to reclaim my body.
2. HP mini 1000 notebook and the
3. 3M MPro110 projector–with these two items I could give a presentation at my annual conference without having to bring an extra suitcase full of laptop and projector.
4. Iphone 3g–I want one–bad!
5. Amazon Kindle–my book buying habit has taken over my house.
If I am the winner I will be sharing all this great computer technology with the other members of the “specials” team at my school. Regular classroom teachers get technology handed to them but the art, music, library and physical education teachers are always last to get access, if at all. We would like our disciplines to have the opportunity of sharing the magic of technology with our students. Thanks for the chance to win!
iPhone – a must have for anybody
the Kindle – any avid reader will find this is awesome. Easy on your eyes as well, not like a regular laptop or computer screen.
Nikon D90 SLR camera – we FINALLY purchased a good camera, and I can’t seem to put it down. Great photos, easy to shoot, and easy to use. I took some awesome action shots during soccer games, you’d think a professional took them.
Google 411 – information at your fingertips
MacBook Air – the same great apple applications (or is that apple-cations?) on a light weight, easy to carry notebook. Gotta love it.
