DescriptionHey, if Gear Live is to be your hookup for the coolest tech out there, then we need to do it both at and away from the PC. I mean, we know a lot of you guys prefer sitting in front of your HDTV or bumping the latest tracks on your sound system instead of surfing the Internet. In the spirit of providng you with gear news in any situation, we are now giving our members free 1 year subscriptions to Sync Magazine. If you want one, simply sign up here, and indicate that you would like a free subscription. Don’t worry about your info - Gear Live does not sell it or give it away, as we hate spam as much as you do. The only people that will see it is us, and Ziff-Davis (the Sync people).

For those of you that are already members, just drop us a line and we will get you your subscription.

Many users have had great success earning their free things after joining. We are now approaching 600 active traders on QuickTrade!, which means getting those last few referrals to completing the requirements for the free iPod, TV, gift card, or whatever else you are looking to get has never been easier.

By now, we have all heard of the horrific Indian Ocean Tsunami and the tragic aftermath. The affects will be felt for years to come. There are several ways you can help by donating through various channels. One which allows you to donate simply by signing up for an offer (similar to all the free sites you have seen around). HelpDisasterVictims.com is a site where you can sign up for an offer (say, an AOL Free Trial) and all the proceeds made from the comission will go towards disaster relief. In fact, you can sign up for things that won’t cost you anything, and you will still be contributing money to the fund.

Gizmodo also has information on how you can donate to this very worthy cause.

Logitech MX1000 FreeEach week, Gear Live gives away awesome tech prizes courtesy of PrizeCube. The winner of last week’s contest was Nick Laithon, who designed a Gear Live T-Shirt and gave them to each member of his football team to wear around campus.

If there is one thing that just about all Gear Live readers have in common, it’s the fact that we all love our computers. That being the case, we want our computing experience to be a pleasant one. No one likes being frustrated by an electronic device. If you ask me, there is nothing more frustrating than when a mouse has a dirty trackball and you just can’t get it to go where you want it to. With an optical mouse, the problem goes away - but then you get the floating pointer thing every now and then. We want to help aleve you of these frustrations by sending you a new Logitech MX1000 Laser Cordless Mouse. These babies are 20x more accurate than your standard, and have a built-in Lithium-Ion rechargeable battery which never needs to be replaced.

Want one? Simply place your vote in our Best Tech of 2004 story by registering and leaving a comment. For each category you leave a vote for, you earn one entry into the contest for the MX1000.
