Contest – Win a Nokia N95 from Mobilitysite!

Posted by Chris Leckness on May 29, 2008

closeThis post was published 3 years 11 months 23 days ago which may make its actuality or expire date not be valid anymore. This site is not responsible for any misunderstanding.

Ok, back in October, I attended a press event for Sandisk’s launch of the 8GB MicroSD card. This was a killer event in Hollywood where Sandisk secured the 3 hottest night clubs in LA for their private venue. The clubs were The Roxy, The Viper Room, and the Key Club. Anyhow, some of the bands that played were Linkin Park and the Crystal Method. It was a great time. (click the band to see my photos)

Anyhow, at this event, we were all given Nokia N95s to keep. Although it’s not a WinMo device, it’s still a killer phone. I brought it home and tried talking my wife into using it, but she was content with her current phone. Since then, she has finally moved to something more powerful. She uses the Blackberry Pearl.

Last night, I was cleaning up around my office and I came across the box for the N95 and thought that it was a shame that such an expensive, powerful phone was just sitting in the graveyard waiting for a photo op. So, I decided to give it to one of you!

To win this contest for the Nokia N95 Phone, there are a couple things that you have to do. Not that tough to do though… Read on for details.

1st step is uploading a photo to our photo Gallery.
You need to be a member of the forums in order to do that, but it’s not that difficult and it’s free. You can join 200,000+ other members in the forums later too. I am pretty sure the Gallery is 100% operational, but if you do experience any issues, contact me via the form.

  1. Take a photo of yourself with you PDA, Phone, or any other Mobile Device. Bonus points for those that can get Mobilitysite into the photo somehow.
  2. Go to our Gallery and upload a photo to the “contests” category.

2nd step is even easier.
Stay tuned to the RSS feed or front page for the winner to be announced. You will have to pay attention though, it might be an unconventional method of announcement and you will have a time limit to reply. I suggest getting Mobilitysite in your RSS reader. If you don’t use an RSS reader, there are some really nice ones for your phone as well as some killer web based readers that are free.

Web Readers

For your Phone

Step 3 is the easiest of all…
Simply reply to this post… You can do this before or after you upload your photo, it doesn’t matter. When I select my pic from the photos, I will check this thread and make sure that that photo submitter followed the instructions and posted here as well, if not… on to the next photo.

At this point, you might be thinking, “wow, that’s alot of work”. Well, it’s really not and the reasons for the steps are good reasons.

  • The photos make it fun and help grow the community in spirit and comraderie.
  • It helps promote other parts of the site you might not know about like the forums and the Gallery.
  • It’s a killer phone and you should have to show you want it :)

Standard Rules Apply that are mostly the same with all my contests…

  • Deadline for photo submission is June 26th 2008.
  • Staff Members can participate, but will not be allowed to win. Sorry guys.
  • I reserve the right to change rules to protect the integrity of the contest.

The Nokia N95 is the original N95 and is slightly used. All cords, manuals and original box will come with the device.

    • Steve Laser

      Great contest. This one will get tons of replies. Very generous offer.

    • Hana

      Yay! N95 is such a cool phone

    • rwaldo

      My Cingular 8125 is tricked out – running WM6 & loaded with more software than an Iphone or Blackberry could handle! In the photo, it is displaying the Mobility Site using a tabbed browser. This little jewel has served me well but it has been beaten up and is growing old. I really want to replace it. How about an N95?

    • gmplr831

      Ill take it. I love Nokia phones, powerful phones, and I’ve always wanted a powerful GSM phone, always had CDMA carriers….

    • KipDynamite

      N95! that’s very cool. good luck to all

    • Pedah

      Wow Ireally need a new phone too!

    • Stonewall

      I’ve been eying the N95’s for some time, getting one from MobilityToday Chris would make it that much sweeter.

    • phreaker18

      I can already feel the N95 in my hand.. :D

      While I LOVE my Tilt, I’m not against shameless begging for another kick butt phone. Count me in.

    • W.I.P.

      I just lost my pre-historic Nokia cell phone (as in their first generation phone) and had just decided that I was never going to be able to find it and needed to replace it… then Aximsite/Mobilitysite steps in with a ray of hope! The N95 would be so sweet!

    • Linda Pettit

      The Nokia N95 would be a huge upgrade from my Palm m500 and Motorola flip phone. I really like the N95!!!!!!

    • kaeru666

      I would really like this phone. Last week my phone decided to break on me. I am a student and cannot afford to get a new phone. I had to save long enough for the Samsung i730.

      That awesome beauty, n95 is my dream phone which my parents can’t fulfill.I own a cheap camera phone for which my friends taunt me.They all own good smart phones like Nokia n73,E51,6681.
      Whenever they would say ‘This boy owns a down market phone’. I will take out your gift and ask ‘Is this a down- market phone?’
      I know only you can fulfill my dream.
      Chris Pleaseeee…..

    • cottonb

      Great competition, would love to win, hope this is open to people outside the US as I’m in England. I tried to be a bit clever with the photo by taking the picture of my phone using my phone. Fingers crossed anyway, would be great to win for taking photos this summer before going to uni.

    • Michael Maulucci

      I am so glad I am not late for this one! It has been a while since I came to the site, as I have not used my AXIM that often (other then for GPS). I got an email and yay Im back on the Mobility site!

      by winning the precious phone, i could make up for the one i sold to send my little sister to her elementary education. i pray and hope!:)

    • strikeone

      Great work with the contests Chris – they def. bring good to the community.

    • blahdong

      I have to say I like what you did with merging aximsite with mobilitysite (and it’s not sucking up ;).

      My two-cents-comment.

      ps. I love the contest idea!

    • MrChrH

      I’d love to get the Nokia! My private mobile phone is quite old now (SE T610), accumulator doesn’t last very long anymore and the display already has pixel faults …

    • goron1

      Great contest, great odds (so far…). GPS could save my marriage… no more arguments about which route is the best one to take – we’ll let the phone decide.

      Fingers crossed
      Location, not lost, but found
      GPS phone, yes
      mmmmm…

      That was a non-traditional haiku in honor of your competition.

    • mihd

      Hi.
      I finally managed to enter this contest.
      What can I say… Except for the obvious, that it would be amazing if I win this phone (also hope you liked my cat), you are doing a great job with this sites and I thank you for the cool giveaways.

    • apscott

      Thanks Chris for the fun contest!

      I’ve been looking for a phone to keep my family in touch with the world on our holiday in the wilds of Quebec so it would be great to win this fabulous phone. Just uploaded a pic in the gallery so may the best submission win!

    • Big_Cat_Steve

      Man I stuffed up, in my hast to enter I used my work phone to take the photo and didnt include my mobile. I used my work Jasjam as it has a camera and was the only phone with me at that time. My personal Nokia was at home charging as it was dead. Hope Im still in the draw?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    • http://mobilitysite.com Andy Tran

      Always loved Nokia phones. Sadly the really awesome ones are too expensive for me. Anyways, this would make a great graduation gift for my brother! (although I wouldn’t mind keeping it muahaha)

    • Mandomin

      I have not been a Symbian user, and N95 will be a good unit to start with.

    • hazem

      this would be great solution to my problem, an unfixable motorola v3i ;/

    • smadoc

      What a great phone to have in a contest, and with a little history to boot(being from the launch of the SanDisk’s 8GB MicroSD card). :) And look at all the cables that come with it, NICE!

    • Jacob LaFountaine

      Great item

    • Julian Bigelow

      Oh boy that is a pretty phone. Sure would like to see that sitting in my pocket some day!!!

    • k3nnan

      I posted my pic! I want that phone to replace the sad broken thing sitting on my desk right now..

    • alex.stef

      Oops… I forgot to leave a comment here when I uploaded my photo to confirm my entry. But this doesn’t mean I don’t want this Nokia N95.
      Hope it’s ok.

    • maddogmaulucci

      ooowwww. oooowwww. do we have a winner yet!!! :)

    • maddogmaulucci

      haha well I’ve been eagerly waiting the past few weeks for this day, then I just realized it is over on the 26th not the 23rd. oops.. I guess the antisipation of maybe getting a real phone other then the crappy one I have right now is just burning! My fingers are crossed!!

    • Big_Cat_Steve

      Im feeling your pain Maddogmaulucci, my mobile was broken by falling two floors down to the ground. What a mess it was. Went to price a new mobile and fell over so Im crossing all 8 fingers and trying to cross toes as well.
      :-) Cheers
