Merger Contest #12 - The Apple iPhone
WARNING - MAKE SURE YOU CHECK THE DEADLINES ON THESE CONTESTS, THEY ARE NOT ALL THE SAME

The Prize:

The 8gb iPhone

How to win:
Well, I am getting a video preview of the iPhone prepared to put online at Youtube.com and one of the features of the iPhone "is" Youtube. That said, to win, you are going to have to become one with youtube!!! What do I mean? You are going to do a video that you will need to upload to youtube to have a chance to win. I want to make this fun, so let's do this.

What does the video have to be about?
Just make a 1-5 minute video showing why you deserve the iPhone. You can do a skit, show your current setup, whatever you want. The point of the video is to show the readers why you deserve to win this iPhone. Have fun with it.
Make sure to post the video to Youtube. When posting the video, make sure to use the keyword mobilitysite and iphone contest. Also, post the link to the video here in this thread.

The rules:
  • Staff may participate
  • One post per member
  • Must be a member of the site prior to July 4th, 2007
  • Must have 25+ posts on the sites to win
Deadline:
  • July 29th, 2007 @ Midnight CST at this time, at this time the videos will be voted on by the community.

YouTube - Mobilitysite and iPhone Contest

Wow. I am tired. I hate using MS Paint.
I put a little work into it.
It describes all of the features I like. All of the things I mentioned, I love about the iPhone. All the things I mentioned I deserve. I need something that has a weather console.... And a built in map servie. I get lost way to much..... This iPhone would help me organize my life a little easier. I don't carry around my X51v every where I go. But I do carry a cell phone. So if I had this iPhone, I wouldn't be late to some things.... I hate carrying around my iPod Nano, my PDA, and my laptop every where. I need my iPod to listen to music, my PDA to catchup on weather, e-mail, and my laptop for everyday typing. It really isn't easy to type on a PDA... This iPhone would improve all of that. I would only have to carry around 2 devices, my iPhone, and the laptop. C'mon, you can never replace a laptop. You need that for a lot of typing... But using the iPhone, it should be easier to type because of its big keys.

The music is: Here Comes the Hotstepper by Ini Kamoze
