Engadget's recession antidote: win a Phosphor E-Ink watch!

This whole global economic crisis, and its resulting massive loss of jobs got us thinking. We here at Engadget didn't want to stand helplessly by, announcing every new round of misery without giving anything back -- so we decided to take the opportunity to spread a little positivity. We'll be handing out a new gadget every day (except for weekends) to lucky readers until we run out of stuff / companies stop sending things. Today we've got a curved E-Ink wristwatch from Phosphor up for grabs. Read the rules below (no skimming -- we're omniscient and can tell when you've skimmed) and get commenting! Hooray for free stuff!

Special thanks to Phosphor Watches for providing the gear!


The rules:

• Leave a comment below. Any comment will do, but if you want to share your proposal for "fixing" the world economy, that'd be sweet too.
  
• You may only enter this specific giveaway once. If you enter this giveaway more than once you'll be automatically disqualified, etc. (Yes, we have robots that thoroughly check to ensure fairness.)
• If you enter more than once, only activate one comment. This is pretty self explanatory. Just be careful and you'll be fine.
  
• Contest is open to anyone in the 50 States, 18 or older! Sorry, we don't make this rule (we hate excluding anyone), so be mad at our lawyers and contest laws if you have to be mad.
  
• Winner will be chosen randomly. One (1) winner will receive one (1) E-Ink Digital Hour Clock Watch with Stainless Steel Band. Approximate retail value is $195.
  
• If you are chosen, you will be notified by email. Winners must respond within three days of the end of the contest. If you do not respond within that period, another winner will be chosen.
• Entries can be submitted until Wednesday, July 15th, at 11:59PM ET. Good luck!
• Full rules can be found here.

Anyone could cause a company to lose $500 million…it takes a senior executive to get paid for it and expect a bonus and a tax break too.

To fix the economy: give money to the people not companies who got us here in the first place, and free watches for everyone

Stu: "You know counting cards is illegal, right?..." Alan: "Counting cards is not illegal, it's frowned upon like masterbating on a plane." Stu: "I'm pretty sure that's illegal too." Alan: "Maybe since 9/11 since everyone has gotten so damn sensitive. Thanks a lot Bin Laden!"

[Skylertidd @ Jul 15th 2009 12:34PM]

Bueno

[Raptor567 @ Jul 15th 2009 12:34PM]

that thing looks awesome. I'm not a huge fan of watches just because i've always got some gadget on me to check the time. (not to mention the abundance of clocks everywhere).

Regardless, i'd wear that thing...
