Have you got way too much time on your hands and could do with a wallet full of spending money? Why not try Vodafone's new online Touch The Phone game, where some genuinely cool prizes can be won.
Touch The Phone is a multi-player game where you compete against other players to keep your mouse on a spinning 3D mobile phone. The player who stays in the game the longest will win £5,000.
There are two game modes - skill and endurance. The skill game, featuring a Nokia N97 Mini, could just take a few minutes to win but players will need quick reactions to stay in the game. The endurance game, featuring the Sony Ericsson Satio could take hours or maybe even days to win and requires maximum concentration.
Be warned: you could lose hours of your life to this game.
Try the game for yourself at http://www.vodafonetouchthephone.com/

Celebrity photographer Jillian Edelstein has snapped the best of them including Kate Moss, Simon Pegg and Bill Nighy (pictured). Now she's working with Sony Ericsson on a new project called Eyes Wide Open to promote the launch of its latest Satio handset on Vodfaone.
The idea is simple: to capture images of 121 eyeballs in only 12.1 hours. Sony Ericsson is searching for people from all over the country and all walks of life to take part in the project.
To be in with a chance of winning go to Eyes Wide Open and upload your details, an image of your eyes and tell them why you'd like to be involved. Jillian will be personally selecting the 61 participants from all applicants and inviting them to a photoshoot, taking place during the first week of December at the flagship central London Vodafone store.

Here's an interesting and simple idea - a bit like a Karaoke version of the Million Dollar home page guy meets those naff T-Mobile ads in Trafalgar Square.
Dell and MTV have joined together to produce Amplichoir. The idea is simple. You record yourself singing Lollipop (the music used in the Dell adverts of course) using a webcam and microphone and you can see and hear yourself by clicking on a thumbnail on the home screen.
Billed as the world's biggest karaoke, it's so far attracted around 500 people to participate. The incentive for people to take part - apart from the chance of singing a rubbishy, but very catchy, song out of tune? The chance to win VIP tickets to the European MTV Music Awards and afterparty in Berlin on November 5th.
The prize includes flights and accommodation for you and a friend, stretch limousine transfers to and from the airport and awards, champagne and flowers in your room when you arrive, dinner for two at Fischers Fritz (the only 2 Michelin Star restaurant in Berlin), a relaxing massage in the Regent Spa, make-up/hairdresser to get you looking good for the awards and after-party, and an EMA Award presented to you on the red carpet. So what are you waiting for? Time to dust off that miicrophone and croon with the best of them.

Is your PC monitor looking a little jaded? Well how about an instant revamp. We have a really tasty looking LG W2353 23inch LCD monitor to give away to the first person whose name we pull out in our electronic draw.
All you need to do is answer the following question and then email us your answer here
What does LG stand for?
We'll be randomly choosing the winner on September 30th.
So what are you waiting for?
Here are the details of the monitor and the T and Cs are underneath
HD Ready 1080p
Full HD contents should be displayed on a Full HD resolution display to maintain their original details. With a display supporting HD 1920x1080 pixels, users can enjoy a perfect visual experience.
Cinema mode
Video clips uploaded on web pages are in low resolution and pixels are distorted when the clips are viewed on full screen. On the other hand, watching the clips in their original size would mean being exposed to various distractive elements such as banners and text. Just like a movie theatre, Cinema Mode creates an ideal environment for viewing video clips posted online by dimming the areas excluded in your mouse drag and helping you focus on what you are watching.
Energy Star Rated
Energy Star rated products use less energy and save users money on their utility bills and are better for the environment
HDMI Input
A single, all-digital cable input which makes it easy to connect and integrate all your digital systems, including cable/satellite boxes and games.
Auto Bright Sensor
LG's Smart Monitor's Auto Bright function has a Bright Sensor that measures the amount of light in the area surrounding the monitor. After analyzing the brightness of ambient light and the data source, the monitor signals the backlight to create an optimized brightness that reproduces a clear image without causing eye strain.
Live Sensor
Live Sensor recognizes hands approaching the monitor and automatically turns on by a proximity sensor. This feature saves energy and contributes to the product life.
Time Control
The Time Control reminds you to take some time to rest by signaling with the power button light according to the interval set by the user.
1. The prize is for one LG W2353V LCD monitors
2. Only open to UK residents, over 18 years old.
