But I never installed them on my Fuze actually (I did try them on other phones though) so may as well give them away.  Anyway, I have one full body shield and one that’s just the screen to giveaway. Oh and don’t ask why I bought a second one when I never used the first one…I wouldn’t be able to answer that aside from saying that it was on sale so I kept buying. Not sure how many of you are still using Fuzes but if you do (and it’s not too late) may as well protect the sucker for free.

Getting to the details, the full body is listed as HTC Touch Pro GSM (Full Body) and here’s the link to Zagg’s site which they still list for $25. The screen shield is listed as HTC Fuze Screen and here’s the link to Zagg’s site which they list for $15. The screen is just that – a single small sheet that just covers the top portion of the phone. The full body comes with the spray bottle if you want it (it’s just water) but I lost the install squeegee (you can just use a credit card).

Anyway, let my loss be your gain. All you need to do to enter is add a comment to this post. I’ll pick two winners -  first gets the full body and the second gets the screen. Only limitation is that I’m only going to ship it within the US…it’s free man:) If you enter more than once only the first entry counts…but you still get a pity vote in my heart for wanting to protect your aging phone. And we’ll run this for a week ending September 2nd at 5pm EST. Now…let’s see if we have two people using Fuzes still ;)

    2010-Aug-26 Wohoo! Free stuff! I'm still using my Fuze after a year and a half (in my RSS reader this site is still called "Fuze Mobility") and still have the original screen protector that came with it on there! a new one (and more) would be sweet.
  2. Noah:
    2010-Aug-27 Ha, guess there are two of us still using the Fuze! LOL!
  3. Noah:
    2010-Aug-27 WOW! There really are two of us still using the Fuze! I thought I was the only one...EVER! LOL!
  4. Eddie:
    2010-Aug-27 Make that three! FuzeMobility was the place I turned to every time I forgot my screen resolution (was that VGA or WVGA?) or the path to xda-developer before both were engrained in my brain. The Fuze is still my first and only smartphone. $300 is too much to throw away after just two years! Keep up the great work here!
  5. stefymarty:
    2010-Aug-27 make that 3 haha! i actually tried the zagg screen protector about a year ago and i found it to be a little too tacky, and i don't mean like a pink flamingo on the front lawn. it was almost too sticky to slide your finger smoothly. besides that though it was a great product - very rugged.

You can find a link to download the app from Zaam’s new site, and check out his future releases there as well.

The app is very fun to just try and see how different armor types would look with one or another. Plus it gives you all of the color choices from the actual Halo 3 game. So, if you’re thinking of trying out a new combination of armors and colors you can now do it without wasting time turning on your 360 and loading up the game.

We have three codes to giveaway. One will be given away on here, one at Xbox 360 Digest, and the third will be randomly awarded to a Twitter user (see below).

Here are the rules:

  • Contest ends on Friday, February 5.
  • You can enter via all 3 methods (mentioned above).
  • On Twitter, you can enter once each day until the end date.
  • How to enter on the websites: all you have to do is post a comment with a reason of why you want the app, or with a comment about why you visit the sites.
  • To enter on Twitter just retweet this message:

Win the new “Halo3 Model” iPhone app from @Zaam! RT and follow @MobilityDigest to win! http://bit.ly/Halo3ModelContest #Zaam

    2010-Jan-29 I’d like the app because I really do own an iPhone, I am one of those gamers who does care how their characters in the game look (even work hard on my avatars), plus I work at a psych. hospital for children on the pre-teen/young teen cottage where many kids have played Halo3 at home but can’t play where they live now on cottage. They’d enjoy tinkering around on the app with me. They love iPhones P.S. I may be better at decking out characters then actualy fragging people. Haha

I have been incredibly busy with work, and a lot of behind the scenes stuff with the websites. We have some cool stuff coming in the near future that I think everyone is going to like. I think we also got our Web Hosting issues solved. So stay tuned as we continue to try to make this a great community for everyone to enjoy.

So as I was trying to catch up on all the news, I came across an article by our Friend Gil Bouhnick over at the Mobile Spoon that I thought you all would like to have a read about. Gil is famous for is awesome artwork (pictured here) and comparing devices. Gil changes devices more often than he changes his……ah……Let’s just say he has got A LOT of devices. (at least more than me). So Gil straps the gloves on some of his favorite devices and let’s them “duke” it out once more.

I read through Gil’s article once, and already had my own differences to some of his conclusions, but like Gil states: “The rules are simple: I set the rules.”. I’m sure all you may have your own opinions and we want to hear them! Please leave a comment and let us know how your Windows Mobile Device measures up against some of the compared devices listed in Gil’s article.

To spice things up, I am going to turn this into a contest. Hey, I’ve been MIA for a while now so why not give away some FREE stuff! All you have to do is leave a RELAVANT comment about Gil’s article and whether you agree or disagree with anything stated and you will be eligible to win a random prize donated to us by Test Freaks and Dragon Steel Mods. Not telling what’s in the stash, so you will have to wait and see!

First Head on over to Mobile Spoon and check out the comparison, then leave us a comment!

The winner will will be drawn randomly from a comment left on all our websites, so it doesn’t matter where you post, Tilt Mobility, Fuze Mobility, or Mobility Digest, you still can win!

If you posted a comment over the past weekend please check to make sure your comment was in fact added since we upgraded our server and some comments which were made during the transition were lost (and we apologetically have no way of knowing what was lost).

Good luck to all!
