Can a Brotha Get That Helio Ocean?

Check this out folks, I recently found a blog by a man named Josh Hallett. He bought a Helio Ocean in order to review it and is now having a contest in order to determine who he will give it away to. He says that to become eligible for this Ocean, all you need to do is write a blog post about why you should get it and link it to his post. Normally I would be skeptical of stuff like this, but if somebody is giving away the only electronic device I really want, I want to be on the receiving end. (I actually opened this blog account because of Josh Hallett and his Helio Ocean giveaway contest.) I don't know if this will work, but we'll see!

Here's his original post


(Here's my response)
I am desperately trying to get a cell phone before I start college in mid August. Believe it or not, I am the only person I know that went through all four years of high school without having a cell, relying on e-mail, facebook.com, and land lines to stay connected in today's technology-driven Information Age. I'm going out of state to college and I need a cell phone to keep up with my friends and family. The ONLY phone I want is a Helio Ocean. I originally wanted the Kickflip, but when it was discontinued, I saw the Ocean for the first time and fell in love with it. It is the only phone I want because it provides a convenient way for me to keep up with all my contacts from various internet accounts, and allows me to surf the web in impressive HTML instead of that boring graphic and charisma-free internet browsing that you are used to on your cell phone. It also features a great camera, which is great because I don't yet have a digital camera, either (I know, I know, I'm trying!). What better way for me to keep family and friends posted than by showing them better than I can tell them?

Of course, there are obvious reasons why I want a Helio Ocean.

1. The dual slider thing is TIGHT! I mean, there is nothing else like that on the market right now.
2. The screen is huge and allows for great browsing and use of the buddy beacon as well as great graphics for mobile gaming and video watching.
3. IT HAS A FULL KEYBOARD! For someone who doesn't have much texting experience due to the absence of a cell phone in my life, I would find it much easier to do my text messaging on that QWERTY keyboard than starting out on the regular numeric keypad.
   
4. Come on, who WOULDN'T want to be the envy of friends and passers-by every time he gets a phone call or text message. I know I would!

Come on, Mr. Hallett, hook a brotha up! Please!
