Christmas is coming early, it’s been a while since we did a giveaway but good things are worth the wait right?! In celebration of the launch of the HP Envy 13 and Windows 7, we teamed up with HP to giveaway one (1) brand new sleek-sexy Envy 13 to a lucky nitro:licious reader, I’ll be green with “envy” of whoever wins this laptop! The laptop retails starting from $1,699.99! The Envy 13 is super thin, weighs about 3.74 lbs. and is less than 1″ thin, and features a 13.1″ HD Radiance display with up to 410 nit/82% color gamut which is twice as bright as other notebook displays in its class, BluRay and Beats Audio make it an ideal device for experiencing music and video. The luxurious design elements includes etched metal chassis, and best-in-class hardware with the intuitive user experience delivered by Windows 7. For me, one of the important aspects is the battery life, the Slim Fit Extended-Life notebook battery gives users up to 16.25 hours of battery life. Windows 7 power management contributes to battery longevity by running fewer background activities, automatic screen dimming, powering off unused ports and more. Features like snap, pin, shake, and peak in Windows 7 make day-to-day tasks a breeze on the Envy 13. I’m not going to get into all the specs and features, to learn more check here and here.

For those that knows me, knows that I’m addicted to my BlackBerry but the BlackBerry trackball seems to hate me (I’m sure many of you CrackBerry addicts would agree). I started using the BlackBerry when the Curve 8320 released and then upgraded to the Curve 8900 when it was released back in February this year. The trackball is a bit better on the Curve 8900 but still not that great but T-Mobile has the solution, announced today the upcoming release of the BlacBerry Bold 9700 featuring the newest touch-sensitive optical trackpad! The high-gloss black finish and chrome highlights with leatherette back is hot. Damn, need one quick! The T-Mobile BlackBerry Curve 9700 will be the first 3G-powered BlackBerry smartphone available through T-Mobile USA, and also the first smartphone from Research In Motion (RIM) that includes built-in support for both 3G connectivity and voice calls over Wi-Fi. Also features 3G HSDPA networks around the world, a next-generation (624 MHz) processor, 256MB Flash memory, built-in GPS and Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g). And most importantly, 3.2 megapixel camera with autofocus, flash and video recording, a sharp, dazzling high-resolution display, a music and video player and access to popular social networking applications. Don’t go running out to a T-Mobile store just yet, the new phone won’t be available till the holiday season. Get ready to upgrade, I can’t wait to get my hands on this.
Sometimes I feel like having two smartphones, a BlackBerry and an iPhone, just because the iPhone gets all the cool apps but I’ll settle with my iPod Touch to use all the apps instead! Gucci announced today the launch of the Gucci App for iPhone and iPod touch, which is now available from the App Store. The app synthesizes the worlds of fashion, technology and music offering Gucci enthusiasts access to exclusive Gucci products, unique playlists, videos, fashion shows, news, events, latest collections, store listings and the ability to mix their own music.

The Gucci App is available for free from the App Store on iPhone and iPod Touch at www.itunes.com/appstore/. Go download!
