We guess today's the last day of Engadget Mobile's 30 days of cellphone giveaways! Has it really already been
an entire month? Well, we'd definitely like to say thanks for the last 30 days of your readership here at Engadget
Mobile -- we're off to a great start, and we really couldn't be happier to offer up the GPS / QWERTY powerhouse that is
HP's iPAQ hw6515 (namely because that means we can finally buy and ship out all the winners' phones). This is your last
chance everyone, so if you want to take home home an iPAQ all you have to do is post a little something in the comments
below, and we'll pick a winner at random (yes, your comment must validate). Doesn't get easier than that, right? We'll
keep today's contest open for about 24 hours, and we'll announce a winner tomorrow.
A few things:
- You can only post once per day, if you post more than once you'll be automatically disqualified
and barred from all future giveaways. (Yes, we're checking thoroughly to ensure fairness.)
- You can only win once. (If you win and go for a second phone, you'll be
automatically disqualified and barred, etc.)
- We'll be shipping all the phones to
winners once the contest ends. (Yeah, we know it bites to have to wait, but dems the breaks!)
Best of luck
to everyone!
Yesterday's winner:
Lauren!
Congratulations, Lauren!

Okay, why I think I can get a prize:
1) I'm first (probably) and the day is last. Pretty good coincidence.
2) I'm the only russian here I see ^_^
3) I like mobile phones
4) I can make articles for ya (also translating from russian - we have some good sources down here ^_^ )
5) It's the first and last attempt to get this phone
6) I prayed to get a prize
7) I've almost entered the university and for Russia I'm doing this in a pretty young age. Shouldn't I get a present?
8) It's becoming pretty long comment... already... Isn't it original?
9) I can write verces:
Engadget is the coolest site
And fall in love with it I might!
10) The prize shall you give to Yod... me!
11) I have a sence of humor
12) I WANT THE DAMN PRIZE!
13) You'll be bored to read all of this... you'll probably better just give me the prize for refusing to read this post
14) Fair trade: I get the prize, you get the enjoyment for giving me the prize
15)
Cellphones are the greatest thing!
And I don't think they just ring-ring!
Another verces! 2 verces in a giveaway at Engadget [Mobile]! It's a Hynness record!!!
16) If you won't give me the phone, I'll die eventually... some day...
17) Zzzz... ah? It's the 17-th point already... zzz...
18) Well, as an Engadget fan for ages, I think I more or less deserve the phone
19) Plz plz plz giv me t3h priZzZe!
20) Did I run out of points? Probably not... it's only the twentieth.
21) You know, in Russia "21" is a "score", and it's when someone goals in soccer right between the goalkeeper's legs! So - "score" goal! I WIN!!!
22) Probably I got you. Give me the prize, and you won't be forced to read the rest...
23) Do you think I don't have a sense of humor? Well, you think so. Anyway, I'm hungry!!!!!!!!! ( http://www.prus.ru/add/data/upimages/sukakin/schastlivoe-detstvo.jpg - image)
24) I like cool devices: http://www.prus.ru/add/data/upimages/sukakin/otkryvalka.jpg - image as well.
25) I'm honest!
...
1001) Okay okay in this I wasn't much of honest... it's only: 26) only 26-th point.
27) In Russia this post counts as a short post. And will count for many more points.
28) Okay, back to the topic. I can win a phone, because I'll treat it well
29) I can win the phone, because I've read "War & Peace" by Leo Tolstoy - this book is thick!
30) Thirty!
31) Look at my speed of typing, as I'm probably one of the first comment autors.
32) I'll get as much as it's possible from the phone! I'm VERY good at this!
33) I can install Linux or Windows 9* on the phone... probably. Never tried on this one, but already installed on some.
34) I can make russian version of Engadget - I promise you - in Russia it will be also very succesful. And not much of russians know english that good, so they can read the original version of Engadget.
! ATTENTION !
35) If you won't give me the prize, please email me at artemik[AT]gmail[DOT]com and say what did I do wrong... But - I know you won't! I'm too good! 100% You will give me the prize
36) DON'T SAY YOU DON'T LOOK IN THE CONTENTS AND ONLY CHOOSE THE POST NUMBER!!! I suppose you didn't have such posts in all 30 days!!!
37) Back to the topic again: from the maximum of almost 10000 posters pro a contest day I'm the only one to write this post, and I want the phone much MUCH more than they do. And you can't disagree.
38) I can advertise you in Russia!!! It will be very profitable for you!
39) All I said except for the 1001)-th point is TRUE!!!!! ABSOLUTELY!
40) Okay, I'll stop at 50-th point... because you almost agreed to give me the prize!
41) I suggest doing an all-things-Engadget - something Engadget-related in games, videos, maybe an Engadget character... That would be cool. Engadget phone is also a great idea... for example based on HTC *anything*. And with almost all of this I can help you.
42) Another idea, I'd find it very useful! Make a low-traffic version of your site! Or a wap-version. It's not very hard (getting rid of almost all graphics and etc., banners can remain, they don't eat that much traffic relative to the whole site) and will economy traffic and money for PPC and modem users. And limited-traffic users. This groups together ARE largest I guess.
43) I'm a source of many ideas! Two examples above!
44) I'm very friendly! Even if you won't give me the phone, I'll gladly be your friend!
45) And because you will give it to me, it will be much better!
46) If you will give me the phone, it will be good for both of us. It's at least no matter to you whom you will give the prize. And I said many things above why you can give it to me. So to the "no matter" we add my points ad here we go. And for me it also will be very useful, that doesn't need any explanations!
47) It's my birthday!
48) Almost the end!
49) As a conclusion I want to say that I thank you for the great job you did, are doing and probably will do. Your site is a great place to read about tech news, new gadgets and everything! You're the best! Thank you again!!!
50) Well, here we are. Thanks for the phone, for reading all this writing above and for everything you'll ever do!
T H E E N D .
