Vote Samsung Blog Phone Charity Giveaway

// October 14th, 2007 // 1 Comment » // General, Samsung SGH-i600

As you may know, I was recently involved in the Samsung blog project, where a couple of bloggers, Aquila / Nico Olwagen (that’s me), Rafiq, Tertia and Deshanta were asked to test drive a number of Samsung mobile phones for a few months and blog about our real life experiences.

The project was a blast and you can read more about my experience with the Samsung SGH-i600 Blackjack phone over at the Samsung blog.

Now that the project is over, the good guys at Samsung decided to donate the phones we reviewed to charity and currently the Samsung i600 Blackjack and Samsung E250 is up for grabs.

Since the Living Maths project is close to my heart, I chose it as my nominated charity/organisation. Living Maths, an NGO which addresses the shortage of people with mathematical skills and so provides classes for pupils struggling to grasp the fundamentals of this discipline and promotes mathematics as a career.

So what I need you to do is to go vote for Living Maths on the Samsung blog site to get the phones (you may need to sign up to vote, but it’s quick and easy). I think this will truly help them get the message out and assist in that all-important organisation needed to bring essential maths tuition to our youngsters.

Let me also take a brief moment to thank Daniel Lamberti from Samsung Mobile and Mike Stopforth from Cerebra for this awesome experience. It was great being part of this project and even better to be able to assist in enriching someone else’s life with this charity giveaway.

All help with the voting will be appreciated.
You guys rock!

Samsung SGH-i600 In Review

// June 5th, 2007 // 5 Comments » // Samsung SGH-i600

Some really cool developments in progress.

I’ve been asked alongside a panel of some cool bloggers to review some of the latest Samsung mobile handsets.

A blog has been set up, aptly called the Samsung Blog, and will feature our weekly postings and findings of the various handsets on review.

I’ve been given a sleek and stylish Smartphone, the Samsung SGH-i600 for review.

I will occasionally bring you supplementary content from the Samsung blog, to keep you up to date on the progress. Alternatively, why not subscribe to the RSS feed for that site and while you’re at it, this one if you haven’t subscribed already.

My first post and my flickr set dedicated to the review is up already, so please check it out and vote for me to keep the phone at the end of the review.

Call you later.
