Time for another giveaway as part of our Two Year Anniversary Giveaway. Today’s prizes are courtesy of Helium Digital, a Canadian company behind products like the HDBT-990 Wrist Communicator, and Gel-Shellz for iPhone. These are the exact products that are being given away today!

The HDBT-990 Bluetooth Wrist Communicator was reviewed by us and is a unique accessory to have when you’re in quieter environments that don’t warrant a BT headset. We were the first site in the world to review this unit. You can feel like James Bond when you speak into your wrist. We’re giving this away today!

The Gel-Shellz are silicone cases for your iPhone 3G/3GS that are well made and include a cut out on the back to reveal the Apple logo. Two of these are up for grabs.

How to Enter the Helium Digital Giveaway

1. Post a sentence below with the words “Helium” and “Digital” (but NOT beside each other).
2. Contest ends on March 1st, 2010 at 11:59PM. Open to Canadian addresses only please.
3. GOOD LUCK!

Two Year Anniversary Giveaway Day 5: Helium Digital is a post from: iPhone in Canada Blog - Tips, Tricks, News, and Tutorials for Canadian iPhone Users

Yesterday was quite the day for Team Canada! FOUR medals, plus a berth to the semi-final round for the Men’s Hockey Team. It was a great day! Anyways, to continue with our Olympic/Two Year Blog Anniversary giveaway, we have two 1Password 3 promo codes up for grabs!

1Password 3: The Must Have Software for your Mac

The Agile Team has once again graciously donated two full licenses of their amazing software, 1Password 3. With the ever-growing list of website logins (email, social media, forums, work, travel, etc) it’s pretty much impossible to keep track of them all. That is unless you have an easy to use password manager that is safe and offers so much more.

With 1Password 3, you create a secure master password. This master password will unlock the vault where your other passwords are stored. Trust me, it’s the best piece of software I have on my Mac, hands down. There are plugins for all major web browsers (Chrome is coming soon) so you can login to any site with just a click of a button. No more form filling, and having to reset your password.

There’s also a free 1Password iPhone app that lets you sync your database to your iPhone. So all your passwords will be with you at all times. I can’t stress how much easier 1Password has made computing online. It’s an essential piece of software to have.

Click here to visit 1Password on the web. Read our 1Password 3 Review.

Two Year Anniversary Giveaway Day 2: ZAGG is a post from: iPhone in Canada Blog - Tips, Tricks, News, and Tutorials for Canadian iPhone Users

It’s that time again folks! Last year, we had a massive $2000 One Year Blog Anniversary Giveaway to celebrate this blog’s one year anniversary. I started this blog in the fall of 2007, so technically the two year anniversary should’ve taken place in the Fall of 2009!

Normally our blog anniversary giveaway takes place in mid to late January. I decided to push the date back to coincide with the 2010 Winter Olympics! Why not add some extra oomph to the fun here already?!

Either way, it’s going to be a big bonus for all you loyal readers out there–especially those who have been reading since this blog’s beginnings. I can’t thank you enough for supporting the site! I’ve met so many wonderful people along the way. Let’s take some time out and give away some awesome prizes!

A big thanks goes out to the following sponsors for these prizes:

• ZAGG: 5 x ZAGGsparqs, 5 x full body iPhone invisibleSHIELDs ($900US value)
• OtterBox: 3 x $50 gift certificates ($150US value)
• iPodRepair.ca: 1GB iPod Shuffle ($89 value)
• Helium Digital: 1 x Bluetooth Wristband Communicator, 2 x Gel-Shellz ($140US value)
• 1Password for Mac: 2 x promo codes ($80US value)
• WhatsApp: 10 x promo codes ($9.99) and brand new 8GB iPod Touch ($245CDN value)
• Griffin Technology: 2 x Aircurves, 2 x WindowSeats ($99 value)
• Not Your Average iPhone Book – 50 copies! ($350US value)
• Orion Accessories – Assorted iPhone cases/cables ($100US value)

Total prize value: Just under $2200! That’s right, we topped last year’s prize total!

LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

Day 1 Giveaway: 8GB iPod Touch + 10 x WhatsApp Promo Codes

The creators of WhatsApp have generously sponsored an 8GB iPod Touch and 10 x WhatsApp promo codes! If you haven’t read our review of WhatsApp already, it’s one of my all time favourite iPhone apps. The comparisons of WhatsApp as the Blackberry Messenger equivalent are just wrong–this app absolutely destroys Blackberry Messenger.

WhatsApp enables iPhone and iPod Touch users to send messages, pictures, videos, audio notes, and GPS location to each other for FREE. Say good bye to those expensive SMS charges from Rogers/Telus/Bell. Thanks to Push Notifications you get every single message, plus the speed of sending messages is equivalent to chatting via IM. It’s that awesome!

You can now get your chance to win a this app for FREE (it’s $0.99 in the App Store) PLUS the following custom engraved 8GB iPod Touch:

How to Enter:

1. Follow us on twitter.com/iphoneincanada

2. Send out the following tweet on twitter (make sure the #iicday1 hashtag is included!):
