Each and every year, we here at Giz accumulate a lot of gadgets we don’t need or want. Some of them are review products that never get collected, some are prizes from competitions entered at events, others are part of the obligatory swag bags. This year though, we’re giving those gadgets to you, as part of the Great Giz Xmas Giveaway of 2009.
For the next three weeks, we’ll be giving away a different gadget each day. Some of the bigger items are ex-review, and so have been tested by me. Mostly though, they’re brand new and still in their wrapping.
Today’s prize is a copy of Kaspersky Internet Security 2010. It’s a 3 PC, 2-year license, worth $110.
To enter, tell us in 25 words or less in the comments section below: “What’s your ultimate Christmas Gadget?”
Entries close at midnight tonight, Sydney time.

A ‘Stargate’. Who cares if it’s not real? Still beats your mate’s new ipod for chrissy. Plus it open’s the gateway to more gadgets (literally)

I’d have to have a flux capacitor – getting just the right gift for everyone would then be trial and error.

The ultimate Xmas gadget, is something that you’ve always wanted, read all about it, must have it, yet never really needed, and impossible to justify it to wives partners etc, and you still get it as a Gift!
