Vacation time is over and now its time to get back to business. Some of you may recall that just before the Holidays I was lucky enough to get a HTC Hero powered by the great new mobile OS from Google, Google Android.

I have been using the Hero now over the holidays and has gotten quite familiar with the OS and I’m loving it to bits. The HTC Hero is not the only phone currently available in South Africa running the Google Android OS, there is also the HTC Magic, HTC Tattoo and HTC Dream.

There is also the OpenMoko any geeks dream when it comes to phones. Why you ask? Well just because its open source and you can basically run anything on it the cpu and memory is capable of. The OpenMoko works well with Google Android and now you can win one.

Rafiq from WebAddict(s) is now running a competition where you can walk away with a OpenMoko phone capable of running Google Android. All you have to do to win this Google Android phone is to follow the steps on WebAddict(s).

A while back I entered a competition to win a Pigeonrace 2009 T-shirt, and was lucky enough to be one of the winners.

The competition was ran by Springleap which gave away 50 free Pigeonrace 2009 T-shirts to the first 50 people that commented on the shirts design.

Pretty cool tee, just sad that we didn’t get it earlier to wear it on the day of the race. Big thanks go out to the guys at Springleap and Winston and his owner for giving us these free tees. If you like the design be sure to check out Springleap’s site for more awsome designs like these.
