ETA COMMENTS CLOSED, WINNER ANNOUNCED SOONHey guys, I have another giveaway for you- I received it as part of a larger prize package and since I am still not there yet with the technology I have no use for it. It has a list price of $149. but you can find it a little cheaper at Best Buy or Amazon.
What it is is a Spracht Aura Mobile BT (Bluetooth Conferencing).
You can turn your mobile phone, cordless phone, pc or mac into a portable, high quality digital conferencing phone.
I wanted to do it justice but I really can't so I hunted down a super-thorough review for you on pocketnow.com. The gist of the review is that this is one of those things where you could find something with similar functions cheaper, but this is most definitely one of those cases where you get what you pay for.
It is new in box and I will send it to the US or Canada since I am paying for the shipping myself.
Once again- I am the only one sponsoring the giveaway, there are no other sponsors or whatnot.
You can enter daily- first entry tell me what you love or hate about technology today, subsequent days you can make it as simple as today's entry.
If you really really want this, you can do the extra things and let me know what they are- follow on twitter, tweet (can be done daily), follow my blog, go on over to Pink Lemonade and comment on my keeping cool in the kitchen summer dinner ideas or no-bake summer pies posts then come back and let me know, sub to my rss feed, spread the word however you choose and leave me the link.
Ends July 31 at 11:59 pm Eastern Standard Time
Winner will be chosen using Randomizer.
Good luck, y'all.
Don't forget to check out the other giveaways going on here.

hubby would love this and actually know what to do with it, lol. technology is great in that it allows us to keep in contact; it stinks in that it allows us to keep in constant contact. ;D trinitygsd at yahoo dot com
I am not that tech advanced either but my daughter who is an urban planner would love this! Please enter me!
What I hate is that the instructions are always so hard to figure out. I always hand everything to my daughter and then she tells me how to use it!

Oh this would be nice!!! Easy to figure out. Thanks for the chance.

I hate that everything has complicated directions and different batteries.
the best thing about new technology is getting new and better ways to connect to other people, but the bad thing is that it changes so often, it's hard to stay "in the now"
I love that today's technology is getting more compact and portable, but I hate that it's also getting more complicated. Once things move out of the realms of being user maintained, they're far less reliable and far more intimidating to most folk.
cool carrots!
I like that prices come down on items I couldn't afford years ago.
I hate how technology changes so often that everything is practically outdated after a year or two.

What I love about technology today is that there is always something new to learn. I am never BORED!
Hope I win.
I still love that anytime I have a question or am curious about something, I can just look it up on my computer. Never get tired of this. Thank you!
I follow your blog.

I love that technology today makes it so easy to stay in touch. Some close friends recently moved out of the country. In years past, that would have meant writing letters to keep in touch. Now we can talk and see each other for free anytime with Skype. We can instantly catch up on Facebook and IM. Very cool. Thank you for the terrific give-away.
It just makes things easier, yet harder.
Easier because you can do so much from the touch of your fingers.
Harder because it's forever changing and with that comes hackers, spammers, and expensive "anti-virus programs"...
Thanks for the remarkable giveaway!!!

I LOVE technology! Every time I think my life can't get any simpler they come out with some new great gadget. I'd be lost without my gadgets!
gotta say I love gadgets
I like my digital camera and being able to share photos with family so easily
My 07/19 entry please :)
ktgonyea at gmail.com
I love that there is a ever expanding range of new products but really hate that there are so many that it's impossible to keep up and many make our "new" product obsolete.
Thanks for the entry

what I hate about technology today is when it becomes a major time suck - as in today when I brainstormed my lack of disk space for 4 hours and got nowhere :-(
Makes information must easier to obtain
I love how simple it can make things by staying in touch with family and friends but only after someone explains it all to me
Thank you for the chance

I love my digital camera and sharing my photos with friends and family
Well, I grew up with black and white TV and I learned math on a slide rule. So I'll just say the world is becoming this magnificent wonderful evolving testament to innovation and wonder.
I love my desktop computer, cell phone and ipod.

I like that the new technology makes our fast paced life so much easier.
Thursday's entry
It's just too easy to say something like "Technology makes my life easier". One should say that they want to be able to check their email from every room, and then be able to have a video conference with a friend who is in the next room, but doesn't want to go into that room. Long winded, but uber geeky.
I love how i can interact with the world via the net but I hate how it is becoming a big part of our kids lives. What happened to ridding your bike for fun now its playing video games. Then they wonder why obesity is up.
another entry
I like that some technology was designed so it works without a lot of training, or without any training. I hate technology that is too hard to use without reading or handholding.
I dislike how much people use their cell phones, I'm sorry but we really don't need to talk about every single item in a store to someone else on the phone! (With that being said, I do love my cell phone! :) )

My cookie told me I had to enter again... so I am.
Then I'm eating the cookie. I'm not going to be bossed around by snacks!
(Just saying "enter me!" seemed dull).
Technology is always a good thing.
I just have a problem understanding the directions most of the time

I love tech but I hate it when they upgrade essentail software without debugging it first. Plus I ate it when they cut off support for older tech. It'd be a lot more eco friendly to make it where people with older computer weren't forced to upgrade just to keep doing what they want to do online.

nice!
I heart keeping in touch with friends and family via email, digital photos, etc.
I love that technology has given me so many new ways to keep in contact with my friends and family :)
I love how technology keeps me informed. I don't like how technology causes some people to only speak to each other in texts and emails. vidomich(at)yahoo(dot)com
I love that technology enables me to work from home!

Thank you for stopping by, we really love hearing from you. Sorry we had to enable the word verification, getting a bit too much spam to keep under control without it.
