Win : Elgato EyeTV DTT Deluxe
October 12, 2008
To celebrate almost two years of DigMo! and Halloween Elgato have generously provided us with two great prizes to give away to two of our regular readers. As regular visitors to the site already know we are massive fans of the Elgato hardware and EyeTV software, check out our review of EyeTV 3 here.
The first competition prize is the amazing EyeTV DTT Deluxe (see below for a brief spec). The second prize is the brilliant hardware accelerator the Turbo.264 (again spec is below).
We toyed with asking users to write in and explain why they deserve to win or perhaps asking a silly question where the answer is clearly all over the post.Instead we decided on something a little different to ensure one of our regular readers/followers gets the benefit of this great pize.
Relatively shortly we will post a 12 digit code via RSS and Twitter. The first person to email elgatocompo@digmo.co.uk with this code and their name and address wins. That simple. The first emailer wins the DTT Deluxe the second emailer the Turbo.264
To ensure you get this code as soon as we release it you need to follow us. Following is easy, simply add our RSS feed to your reader (click here) or sign up for our RSS Email service. The RSS email system sends a single daily email if we have added to the site. We don’t pass on addresses to 3rd parties either Finally you can also follow us directly on twitter. Whatever mode you opt for the code will appear on or before Friday 31st October 2008 (5pm uk).
