Ho ho holy crap we have big news to share. Starting December 1st, to help get everyone in the holiday spirit, we’ve paired with @NVIDIATegra to give away a fresh device every day until Christmas. We’re calling it The 25 Days of Tegra and it’s only for And Me Accounts. Still don’t have one? You’ve still got a few days to join us.

Before we get to the gritty details, you should go bookmark the main 25 Days of Tegra page. There, you’ll find a calendar of devices that unlock each day, as if by magic, only to be snatched up by you, the loyal reader. To make sure we keep things interesting, and to further our search for the Android elite, we’ve dreamed up a number of challenges designed to reward our most trusted members.

Welcome to the proving grounds

What would the holidays be without a bit of healthy competition? I know you guys saw Jingle All the Way. We’re not going to make you tangle with Arnold Schwarzenegger, but we did think it would be fun to make some of the contests for power users only. That means that on some days, you’ll need a certain rank to participate.

If you’ve been around for a while, you’ll know we recently rolled out a system that scores your interaction on the site and tries to reward you for it. Users can score points in a number of ways, like leaving useful comments that are upvoted by other members of the community. Along with a reputation comes the perks, so we’ve set aside some devices just for users with a certain score. If you’d like to participate, sign up and start generating quality discussion today.

Like always, plenty of these prizes will be random and winnable by anyone, we just wanted to say thanks to our most active users for another solid year of Android merriment.

So what now?

Now we wait. At least until this Thursday, December 1st. That’s when the magic calendar will unlock and begin dropping devices all over the place. If you’d like to spread the cheer before then, you can use the tweetbox below to help us get the word out:

While we’re on the holiday topic, has Android made its way into your holiday gift plans? Is anyone on your list getting something from the land of Android? Leave us a comment below and we’ll work together to kill time like a couple of kids waiting for Chirstmas morning.

      Don’t forget everything works on a sliding scale. To downvote someone and have it really matter, you need to have a certain score to begin with. We’d like to believe our power users aren’t that catty, haha.

I get tired of seeing users come and post once with a ” posting for entry ” useless post and actually win!

      It depends on the device we are giving away. Most will be available to the US, UK, Canada, and Australia. Others are locked to US carriers.

    I wonder what will be the 25th device, what will the magic be…

    p.s. Here’s hoping that work goes quiet so that I can actually find the time to respond on some of the articles and maybe even change my avatar, who knows… ;)

    Both of my parents are eligible for upgrades on Verizon, and I’m delighted that despite my offer to help, neither is interested in leaving Android for iPhone! A huge win from the 60+ crowd!

    Its between the HTC Rezound and the Droid Razr. Tough choice!

    I got ahold of an HP TouchPad that I’m giving to my son for Christmas (now running CM7 Alpha 3) to use with some educational apps for a bit of a supplement to his “normal” education path.

    On a side note, does anyone have any good recommendations for elementary-school-appropriate educational apps or games?

    When I was a kid, I loved playing things like Math Blaster on my Macintosh, or Number Munchers, Oregon Trail, etc. on the Apple IIgs. Are there any decent versions of these or similar educational games out there?

    Firstly let me say that it’s great androidandme does so many contests.

    But it’s even better that the site has been listening to its readers. I’ve seen the complaints over using twitter and such for this, and this is a great solutions that meets that need and encourages discussion.

    Hopefully there won’t be too much spam, and I like that the contest is designed to discourage that. Overall, fantastic stuff.

    how does this rating thing work, exactly? I was a +5 on another thread, and had a rating of 2.. I realized, while attempting to log in, that I never changed the default password from registration. Once I changed my password, it appeared to lose the link to my comment on the other thread (which is now showing me as a “guest”).

    Is your rating linked to your uname/pwd combination? If so, I’d suggest any of the leaders not change their password anytime soon! :)

    Trying to add ‘Android’ to my holidays for both my wife and I, however Verizon is making it somewhat difficult in their unwillingness to release the Galaxy Nexus.

    Thing is, I don’t mind if they push it back so much.. but I really WOULD like to know a date. If they’re going to have it out prior to her Birthday or Christmas, then I’ll be getting her a Nexus.. however, if they’re NOT going to, I have to arrange other gifts.

    It’s the constant rumors that get leaked, and then retracted, and then added to another date, and price, and such that is going to drive me nuts.

    Best case scenario for me is to win a Tegra 2 tablet so I don’t have to buy my wife an iPad. I try to keep as many Apple products out of my household as possible (she did manage to convince me to let her get her iPhone though…).

    Hey, I’m new! Can you tell?

    I really like the way you guys are rewarding users that have been around. Shows the strength and integrity of the community.

    I’ve been following on twitter for a while and finally decided to sign up. I hope I can be active around here and not like all the other sites I sign up for :(. Good luck to all on this contest.

    Great contest, especially the rewarding of us “power users”, the ones that have been around a while and have high rankings, sooooo much better than liking on facebook or tweeting something, etc like another website has people doing….. love it

    Good Luck to all !!

    Another great contest from a great Android site!! Great idea about promoting the veterans of the website but a lot of us do read the website and just not comment on it so that kinda sucks but y’all are still giving away free stuff and that’s just awesome!!

    wow this sounds rigged. power users down voting other users that don’t comment much, or at all, but enjoy a good read. I mean I understand power users should have a better advantage, but down voting someone that is wasting his/her time commenting, & determined to win a B-E-A utiful tegra device should be allowed to.

I’ve read sites like droidlife and engadget for about 2 years now, but something I love about this site is the well rounded android updates, and (my personal favorite) how freaking clean this site looks! I finally became a member today, and am happy to make this my first post here!

      I am enjoying my Motorola Photon 4G. I hated my Moment’s battery life, and I found the screen too small (although I understand that my insistence on having a slider forced me to choose a smaller display). I don’t have these issues so much with the Photon 4G, although I could wish for an even longer-lasting battery. If you’ve had the random reboot issue with your Moment, be advised that some Photon4G folks, myself included, experience Screen of Death issues (mine happen when my phone loses signal in the buildings at work, generally about once or twice a day). I don’t know much about the Epic 4G; it may be a better choice.

    I already tweeted for a change to win, but I had a general question. Which of these devices is more than likely to be kept up to date but the manufacturer? Samsung hasn’t been the best at keeping things up to date (i had the epic 4g, sigh. but now have the nexus s), will asus and sony keep there cool looking devices up to date?

    would that be a factor for any device you pick?
