Win a Peek Mobile Email Device

****Contest Closed - scroll to bottom of post to see who the winner is!****

So is your Christmas shopping done yet? (I haven't even begun, which is not unusual for me) If you're anything like me (read: procrastinator), you definitely read on to find out how you can win something for your own Christmas stocking this year!


While the majority of techy-type gadgets get more complicated with time, (think Blackberrys), the Peek mobile email device is one of the simplest I've ever used. I love mine and never leave home without it now.






You can add multiple email address to it (think: personal, blog, etc...) and it will check them all, keeping you in touch without ever having to be near a computer. There is a $20 monthly fee, but there are no contracts to sign and no hassles - if you like it, use it. Besides, have you checked the prices of a phone contract with internet or email capabilities? Hello? This is much more affordable for the average person who doesn't need constant internet access or even (gasp! have a cell phone), but would love to keep in touch via email. The goal is to give you "just unlimited email—no contracts, no hidden fees, no complications."


Now some of you are thinking, "Why in the world would I ever need that, since I never check my email anyway?" Believe me, if you don't need it, you probably know someone who does - it would make a great gift - even Oprah thinks so.


And the folks at Peek are so kind, they want to give one away right here! You have your choice between charcoal grey, cherry red, or aqua blue. Please specify the your color choice in your comment and I'll choose a winner Monday morning. *One entry per person, and this is open only to those with US addresses, but regardless of whether you are a blogger or non-blogger, you're welcome to enter. Best of luck!


And just so you know, I do have some actual...you know, POSTS planned for this week. I have had my head down working for the past two weeks and have barely had time to do much else. :) It's a good thing, but it's also terrible that I've neglected my blog for this long...sigh.


And the WINNER IS:
But who IS that??? {We Are That Family!!!} Lucky dog...you win all kinds of contests! Congrats...stay tuned - I might have something up my sleeve for next month...along with some posts I promised. Ahem.
