UPDATE: THE WINNER HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED!
Congratulations to Lisa Foster you are the lucky winner of the HP Mobile Mom Pack.
Having a business online gives you the flexibility to take your business where ever you go, which is great, but a pain in your neck if you always have to lug around a full-size laptop on your back. I’ve been that person for a long time, either lugging my 17” inch laptop around or carrying a portable drive where ever I go in case I need “that one” file. The problem with that is – when you forget the drive at home you immediately feel like you left your brain behind. Your computer hard-drive whether portable or built-in is the meat of your business; you’ll be lost without it.
So I was excited to be given the opportunity to review the HP Mini – I have to admit I’ve been eye balling the mini laptops since last year, I loved the red and the gold Vivienne Tam editions – but it wasn’t until the Preppy Pink became available that I knew I needed one.
Being a busy mom of two and a business owner I’m always on the go but I also always need to get work done which means I need to be connected constantly. Having a handy HP mini – designed for mobility at my fingertips allows me to work at the park, library, and restaurant or even in the car if I have to. It’s small and light enough to fit into a fashionable purse or diaper bag without weighing me down. I love that I can even tuck into some of the latest camera bags designed for woman.
I wrote a review about the HP Mini 210 HD Edition – A Laptop for the Stylish Geek: The Preppy Pink HP Mini
HP Mini 210 Specs
- Starting at 2.69 lbs and less than one-inch thin with up to ten hours of battery life, optional 3G broadband and GPS
- Offers a true HD experience with HD screen and optional HD video accelerator
- 10.1-inch Brightview HD LED widescreen display and 93 percent full size island style keyboard
- Available in 6 designs: preppy pink, white crystal, silver crystal, black crystal, pacific blue and sonoma red
- Preppy pink features a pink, plaid-like design using HP Imprint 3-D, the industry’s first 3-D PC surface technology, which debuted on the HP Mini 110 by Studio Tord Boontje. It appears to float on the surface while casting shadows onto lower layers
- Available on June 15 at hpdirect.com, starting at $354.99 U.S.
Another great item for the mobile mom is the HP V5040u digital camcorder. I have been meaning to start vlogging and this is a handy HD camcorder with a screen that flips back to front for easy self vlogging.
Of course the camcorder is small enough to fit in your purse for us moms that are always on the go. My favorite features of the camera include the ability to set the camcorder down and it will and start recording when it detects motion and you can also take still pictures at a resolution of 12mp.
The HP Mini and HP V5040u camcorder will be a perfect addition to my arsenal for BlogHer and other events. I won’t have to tote around my super heavy laptop and I’ll be able to easily record the day’s events on the HP V5040u.
HP V5040u Digital Camcorder
- 1080p High Definition recording
- Sleek and Slim – less than .5″ thick
- HDMI interface
- Motion Detection Function
- Still image capture

I hate to luge around my heavy laptop. It would be nice to have a sleek, light one instead!

It would help me so much with my work, my reading and my pictures of little girl. I’d be able to share them all in a much easier way than with my desktop. Plus it would give me an opportunity to maybe work at home, and spend lots more time with my daughter. I’d be blessed to be able to do that.
Thanks for the giveaway…with two tween daughters sharing a desktop located in the family room, it will soon be time to get each of them a laptop or mini in order to quell the increasing competition between them for computer access, especially with school around the corner; in any event this would be a good start !

The Mobile Mommy HP Pack would simplify your life by making my computer mobile so that I can get work done while on the go.
This would really simplify my life because I go to my sister’s three days a week to watch my nephew and this would be so easy to take along with me!

The Mobile Mommy HP Pack would simplify my life because I could go online and keep up with friends while on the go. I could also record special family memories, like holidays and birthdays, with the camcorder.

The Mobile Mommy HP Pack would simplify my life because when I was out buying things to resell I could check on them first before wasting my money! It would also be amazing to keep my computer freak son busy, when he is surfing I can do anything I want, yes!!!!!!!!!!!

It would simplify my life by allowing me to read, write and go to twiter parties without having to use my phone to do it all.id love to be able to use it for school or for during driving breaks on our upcoming move.
It would simplify by making it easier for me to go online
As it is small and light enough to fit into a bag it would be so convenient!

My airport headache would go away, I believe.

It would be great to have a small portable video camera to take with me in the diaper bag so I can catch all those great impromptu cute moments.
The laptop would simplify my life because I wouldn’t be tied to the desk top computer and could go in rooms where the children play and do homework for longer stretches than I now can.
The camcorder would help because it’s tiny enough to fit in my purse, making movie time, anytime, instead of just when I feel like lugging along the bigger one (which face it, with all the stuff that must get carried with babies and travel, is rare).

The Mobile Mommy HP Pack would make my life a lot easier because I only have a PC
and it would be nice to blog on the go or anywhere in the house
I don’t like buying anything without comparison shopping. With a handy mini-PC, I could check out sale papers and online shops while I’m out shopping and save myself a trip!

It would simplify my life because I would not be stuck at home with my desktop computer.
I’m always on the go and I need this to keep ahead of the game.
The Mobile Mommy HP Pack would simplify my life by helping me capture my baby twins’ milestones & cuteness digitally. I am too busy to be a scrapbooker, but I can capture their moments on video–which I think is much better. Even better, it will help me remember what happened, bolstering my failing (sleep deprived brain) memory.
this would simplify my life because my laptop is too big to lug around and same with the camcorder. if i had lighter ones, i’d use them more on the go.

Missed the contest by thirty-five minutes. Bummer! Looks like an awesome prize that you’re sharing! Nice.
It’s so small I might actually capture special moments my bringing this with me instead of leaving the bigger one home. As far as a mini laptop OMG I would love to get things done while out. I could actually leave the house more and see the light of day.

How would the Mobile Mommy HP Pack simplify your life?
Well, You made me do the following things :
1. Follow @BizzieMommy
2. Follow @HP_PC
3. Tweet “I entered to ….”
4. Read some 300+ comments.
4. I had to make up my mind to participate in this giveaway, though I don’t have a slightest chance of winning. :-/
Now getting to the question ” How would the Mobile Mommy HP Pack simplify my life?”
I think it would help my mom a lot. She is too busy that she doesn’t even have time to leave a comment here. So I thought I would give it a shot. If I get lucky enough to win a HP Mini , then I could give it to her as a gift and that would make my Mom’slife much easier and she would have time to spent with the family.
Thanks.
