macsparky Free Stuff - The Audioengine AW1 Giveaway and Discount
First the Swag...
I've received several emails from readers asking me about the Audioengine AW1 Wireless Adapter I recently reviewed. Well guess what? The folks at Audioengine have agreed to give away two of them to Macsparky readers. This isn't one of *those* contests. I promise. All you have to do is head over to Audioengine and look at the AW1 Wireless Adapter. Then post a comment to this thread explaining what you would do with a free AW1 Wireless Adapter. I can't wait to see what ideas everyone has for this great product. Please just one entry per person. This contest is only available to people with a United States shipping address (sorry).
On Friday February 29 (yes.. leap year day), I'll randomly select two names and announce the winners. Audioengine will then ship the winners their free AW-1. See? Easy! No DNA sample required and no "discussion" about the benefits of timeshares.
"But wait ... there's more..."
Audioengine also agreed to give a 10% discount off all of their products to readers using the "Macsparky" discount code. So if you've been looking for some outstanding desktop speakers, a floor shaking subwoofer, or (like me) lusting after the shelftop A5's, now is your moment. Carpe diem.

A further note regarding the contest...
A few people have written me confused on how to enter. All you have to do is put a comment below and leave an email that finds you if you win. I'm going to make a list of all the comments (removing duplicate entries), then number the list, then randomly generate two numbers and those two are the winners. Rather than do the usual "email me" contest, I thought it would be more fun for everyone to post. This is a unique product and I've already got several new ideas on how to use it from your posts.
The winners are picked Friday (contest closes 9pm pacific on Friday) and the winners are announced on Saturday. Good luck!

Wow! When I first heard about this product on The TMO MacGeekGab, I really didn't understand--that's because I didn't realize what it could do. But now that I "get it", if I had this product I could just about pipe any audio from a Mac/MP3player to any set of powered speakers around the house. Very cool.
Can't wait to get win the contest :). I've heard rave reviews about this Audioengine products.
Escape from the basement is nigh.. perhaps 8-)
I'd use it placed right next to me when I do the dishwashing, which is so loud that I can't listen to any podcasts from my laptop. Wish me good luck!
Gimme. Gimme. Gimme. Please.
Oh yeah, love your screencasts! :-)
Lovin' it!
I would use it to show off my friends what I won on MacSparky.com. Average ppl can really win!
I would use it to show off to my friends, but mostly I would use it to eliminate pesky wires and cords. When I get an Apple TV I'd probably use it for that. Thanks for considering me.
I want to win!!!
I'm looking to set up a wireless audio system in my classroom so that students in the back of class can hear better. This would sure be a great start!
These would make my office the perfect space!!
Wireless is a great way to go. I'm thinking about all the flexibility in terms of producing audio at a whim almost anywhere you need it. This is a great way to expand an audio system with zero hassle.
I have a ton of music on my laptop with no way to get it to my home audio receiver. I don't like any of the currrent music server solutions so this looks like it may be the way to go.
