“The 12 Days AFTER Christmas” Giveaway: Day 24 – Belkin TuneBase Direct with Hands-Free
This contest is closed. Congrats to faithful Macenstein reader Leif.
On the Twenty-Fourth Day After Christmas, Macenstein gave to you (or, more accurately, gave you a chance to win…) The Belkin TuneBase Direct with Hands-Free!

Sure we all love our iPhones, but who likes crashing our cars and dying while using them? Not me, that’s for sure. That’s why I’m pretty jealous of whoever wins this Belkin TuneBase Direct with Hands-Free.
Talk Hands-Free and Listen to Your Playlist—Without Missing A Beat
Listen to your iPod or iPhone music and talk hands-free through your car stereo system. TuneBase Direct connects directly through your car stereo’s auxiliary input jack (3.5mm cable included), so you get the best possible sound for your playlist and your calls.
Make and receive calls with the push of a button. If your iPhone is playing music when a call comes in, the music automatically fades out. You’ll hear the caller’s voice on speakerphone loud and clear through your car’s stereo speakers.
Swivel It
The innovative cradle holds your device securely while you drive and swivels horizontally for easy viewing of your device’s GPS features, like turn-by-turn directions. It also makes it easier for passengers to watch videos.A Perfect Fit
The unique cradle easily adjusts to fit most iPods and iPhones—even with a case on.
Arrive Fully Charged
TuneBase Direct charges your device through your car’s 12-volt lighter outlet, so you can listen or talk without interruption—even on the longest road trip. An additional USB port even allows you to charge a second device while you drive
To enter: Speaking of dying while driving, I’m curious just how negligent my readers are. So to that end, leave me a comment telling me Do you ever text while driving? Winner will be picked randomly 7 days later and notified (kind of like in The Ring, only with less killing… we hope). Open to all readers world-wide. Good luck, and thanks for reading Macenstein! (Oh, and be sure to enter ALL our “12 Days AFTER Christmas” Giveaways!)
Please note: Comments may take a while to show up, please do not double-post. Thanks!
Occasionally, but only if it’s important and I can’t reach them by phone.
Never.
Nope, never.
No, just hands free which keeps me from texting.
I have twice.
Yes, absolutely… Just like 75% of the liars leaving comments of ‘no’ or ‘NEVER’… I call shenanigans!
Every now and then, but I try to limit it to stop lights
Sometimes… Only at traffic lights
Absolutely not
yes, but only when at a red light.
NOPE
I can’t even DRIVE when driving… forget texting.
I tried once and it scared the whoopies out of me! I am old enough to know liability when i see it!
They haven’t created speak-to-text yet…
No!!!
Could you please handle the list of email address of those who text while driving to the police? 🙂
unfortunately, I do!
I rarely text message period, much less while driving. No death wish here.
umm… actually, yes. Though it was an empty road, and I was driving slowly. 😀
nope
Never!
Only at stoplights.
No text driving, life is too nice to die because of a *novel*…
Only at traffic lights…
Quick reply (so they don’t think I’m being a jerk) at a red light.
yes…
Nope. Don’t talk on the phone while driving either.
Only at stops.
Definitely not.
Yes, the Tardis has a autopilot, so Texting can’t harm 🙂
only at a red light
I don’t text while I’m driving, And I don’t text while I’m not driving.
Nope
NOPE and I make sure my kids don’t either.
Technically, yes. but only if I’m on an empty road, and going slow.. Oh, and I limit it to one word answers…
Texting? Is that something you young whippersnappers do? Undoubtedly dangerous, like waving your buggy whip randomly at oncoming phaetons.
Yes, there are times when I do text while driving. With the iPhone I text less often. But usually when I try to text while driving, my wife takes over the texting for me….so basically, I get voice to text, for free!
Texting while driving? I’m insane, but I’m not THAT insane!
No car …
yes i do, and sometimes i even tweet :p
Hate to rain on the parade but I had one of these that I got from COSTCO. There was a recall on the item, and effects the model number of the item your giving away.

Rarely… Call me old skool… I would rather gab on the phone…
