After telling you last week about how AT&T is helping all of those frantically texting girls get and keep the guy with Texitquette, we're glad to see that AT&T is looking out for their male customers, too.

This week we're helping you make your cool Motorola phone even more awesome: EQ5 wireless speakers! Play music, or just play Charlie's Angels and use it hold sexy conference calls. Either way, you will look and feel slick!

To win, go on over to the original post (comments here don't count!) and leave a comment about where you love to play music. At 5pm EST on Friday, September 26th, we'll pick a winner at random. It might be you!

Back in the day, portable music was a big hassle. Giant space hogging boom boxes, huge speakers powered by eleven pounds of batteries, or a really long extension cord that went from the kitchen to the backyard. All of this effort to play the same two mixed tapes, all day long.

Things are much better today! You can have thousands of songs on a device as small as a deck of cards. And if you want to share those groovy tunes? If you're this week's lucky winner, you can click on your Motorola EQ5 Wireless Travel Stereo Speakers, and blast music wherever you want.

Here are details about this cool tool for your Motorola phone:

• Bluetooth wireless technology
• SRS WOW HD™ enhanced stereo performance
• Speakerphone and controls for hands-free functionality
• Noise-reduction and echo-cancellation technology for clear communication
• Discreet desk-stand
• 3.5mm jack to connect to MP3 players
• Micro-USB connection for charging and power

Congratulations to Kristi, the lucky winner of the Motorola Bluetooth hands-free headset.

Thanks to everyone who entered the drawing by sharing your funniest phone mishap. If we learned anything, it's that anything liquid acts as a magnet for cellphones. This is especially true of toilets, where at least half of your mishaps happened.

Here is the mishap from Kristi:

My ringtone for my husband is "I touch myself" by the Divinyls. At the time we had a friend and her hearing impaired son living with us. I left my phone on the kitchen counter during a visit from the child's case worker. In the middle of her asking about the living arrangements and stability of the home, my husband called sending "I touch myself" all through the house! Luckily, the case worker had a good sense of humor!

You still have time to enter this week's giveaway for a super cool, and surprisingly pretty Motorola Bluetooth hands-free headset.

All you have to do is go here and leave a comment with your funniest phone mishap. At 5 pm EST we're picking a winner at random from the comments.

Hands-free sets make your life easier, plus in some states it's the law -- you can't answer a regular cell phone when you're driving. How cool to get one for free, right? Leave a comment and the winner could be you!

Good luck!

It turns out Motorola is serious about helping multitaskers avoid mishaps. They provided us with this (surprisingly pretty) hands-free Bluetooth headset for a giveaway so that one of our lucky readers can try it out, and hopefully become a better multitasker. Or at least not drop your phone as much!

This cool kit includes: the headset, a charging case, a carrying pouch and two ear cushions and looks just the picture, we promise.

When time is short or distances are great, we often wish we could just "beam" -- skip the commuting traffic by beaming yourself from your home to your office, "beam" a pizza from the place down the block, or even beam yourself across the country because you miss your family.

While the Star Trek technology for transmission is probably not going to happen anytime soon, the Hug Shirt from CuteCircuit gets pretty darn close to "being there" in an instant. The red patches on the the Hug Shirt are actually sensors that pick up data about pressure, skin temperature, heart rate, and duration when you touch them. The sensors transmit the data via Bluetooth technology to your cell phone, then delivers the data to the person you're "hugging." Not sure what happens when the other person isn't wearing his Hug Shirt -- does it go to a hug message? In any case, the Hug Shirt is cool enough that it was nominated for Time Magazine's Best Invention of 2006, and it's not too geeky looking either.
