Welcome to the Smartphone Thoughts Gigantic Giveaway Event. We’ve partnered with a number of different vendors in the Smartphone industry to help bring you this awesome event. We have complied over $3,500 worth of prizes up for grabs and over the coming weeks we will be giving it all away to you, our readers! Here’s how it will work: Each Tuesday starting next week on January 31st, we will announce the prize of the week. You’ll then have until the following Monday at midnight (Eastern Standard Time) to enter that draw. The winner will be randomly selected from all the valid entries and announced on the following Wednesday.
Here’s the list of prizes and the vendors who contributed them (listed in alphabetical order):
Hardware

One quick note; Winners will be notified via email, so it's important that the email address you have listed in your profile is one that you check frequently, one that doesn't have harsh spam blocking. At least make sure you add us to your white list. If we can't email you about your prize, then we'll have to give it to someone else. So get ready, everything kicks off on Tuesday!

Ah,
more prizes!!!
Long before there was a SmartPhoneThoughts, back when I was a regular on the PDABuzz site (if that's even still around), I won a Palm Vx on a contest on there (which I promptly gave to my wife, since I had just bought the original iPaq H3650 for $500, and the Palm Vx seemed... archaic?)
Anyway - I'll definitely be checking back tuesday! I wouldn't mind winning a new phone at all! Even though I'm reasonably happy with my tweaked/modded Axia A108, which isn't technically a smartphone, although it's running on CE 4.2, and uses MS ActiveSync to sync with Outlook, etc (and a lot of PPC apps run on it, including Skype and AvantGo).
But anyway! Maybe lightening will strike twice? Hmm... Great lineup of prizes (as everybody else has already pointed out)
