More feedback: Christmas is coming
SMS Text News advent calendar is coming soon.
It is, after all, Christmas time. Okay so it’s only October 23rd, but really, the shops have got their Christmas trees up, the American stores are already playing Bing Crosby…
…and I could use a bit of feedback from you, dear reader.
I’m planning an SMS Text News advent calendar competition. The concept being that we give away a brand new sparkly handset (or handsets) to SMS Text News readers every day of December leading up to the 25th December and a grand prize of some sort.
I’ve got a few ideas, but I’d really appreciate yours… what do you think we should try and arrange?
Handsets? Line rental? USB Modems? I’m working on it now and making calls.


Handsets!
Posted by Rosario on October 23rd, 2007 at 5:10 pm.Unlimited handsets?
An invite to beta test a future Nokia handset?
A chance to mud-wrestle whoever signs-off the Symbian UI?

Posted by Ronnie on October 23rd, 2007 at 11:48 pm.You might be interested to create the advent calendar as a MiniPack (www.seriousknowledge.co.uk) to show off the power of something a little more advanced than SMS or MMS. Each page of the calendar could ask a question requesting a rating (which would be sent by SMS or by going online).
Posted by Martin Willitts on October 24th, 2007 at 11:39 am.Ronnie, that’s a wicked idea. I wonder if we could arrange free-calls as a prize.
Martin — I like the concept of a MiniPack! Very cool!
Posted by Ewan on October 24th, 2007 at 12:13 pm.How about one of those nifty Three USB modems with a years worth of their tenner a month mobile broadband?
Free calls are interesting but I’d imagine most of your readers already get free calls from being in the industry
