Win an HP Mini 210 and an HP Camcorder!!
Are you a “Mobile Mom?” If so, here is some stylish and functional “Mobile Mom” technology designed for you!
Like you, I am almost always on the move — even if it is just moving from one room to another in the house! As a busy mom who works (and plays,) online, I am usually looking for a way to stay connected even if I can’t be sitting at my “desk.” (I actually do not have a “desk” – I have a kitchen table. Oh well.)
Thankfully, I have an iPhone, but I loathe typing on it. In fact, my commenting on blogs has plummetted because I never comment when I am reading on my iPhone.
So, having a Mini computer that can move with me, but still allows me to type on a keyboard is perfect!
Especially when I am traveling or at a conference, I don’t want to carry my heavy laptop everywhere I go. But I NEED to be tweeting and emailing. At a conference, much of the action happens on Twitter. I can’t keep up on my iPhone. I need a keyboard.
So, this week at BlogHer ’10, I will be tweeting from an HP Mini 210 — in Pink! And I will be catching impromptu conversations and action on the HP V5040u Camcorder
I have been testing them both out this weekend, and I am confident that they will have me covered while I walk the floors, tweet from sessions, and party, party, party!
The BEST news is — whether you are going to BlogHer ’10 or not, thanks to HP, we have an HP Mini computer and a compact HP V5040u Camcorder to giveaway to one of you!
- HP Mini 210 in Preppy Pink, (starting at $354.99,) which provides up to 9 hours of battery life and weighs just 2.9lbs, making it easy to slip into any purse and carry everywhere you go.
- HP V5040u Camcorder, ($149.99,) features 1080p HD recording, fits easily into your purse or pocket and will let you capture and share all of life’s unexpected moments.

I would use the HP mini to do all the stuff I do online while on the move and the camcorder to capture our life.

Are you taking daily tweets?
From what I read above it sounded like you wanted us to comment once and then follow you and tweet once or did I read that wrong because I see some people tweeting daily. Thanks.
The camcorder will be a big help for my recording my music aspirations along with the HP mini, I’d use for composing my soundtracks.

The HP Mini would allow me to be productive away from home (I have a desktop), and the camorder would mean I can record all the upcoming special events in our lives – my son’s (eventual!!) college graduation, marriage, babies

Thanks so much for the contest!
I would use both for school projects as well as research and documentation when I go on field. On a personal level, just to capture wonderful experiences and life with loved ones.

The HP mini would be great for carrying with me at all times to stay in touch and updated my work. The HP camcorder would great for taking videos of my kids like todays first day of Kindergarten.
