Winning a contest for an iPad sounds like a dream come true to many people, as iPads are a great, cutting-edge technology — however, they are very expensive, as is most new technology. The solution, then, is to try to win a contest. These contests will give away free iPads, as they can afford to do it for the publicity that the contest generates. There are a number of great iPad contests that you can actually win, though you will want to be sure to read all of the rules and regulations very carefully before entering, as they can be quite specific. Since you can really win an iPad, though, it is worth the time to do the reading.

The first of these contests, one of the ones with the best chance for success, can be found on www.zagg.com. This is a very simple contest to enter: All that you have to do is send in your email address to sign up for the newsletter. It is that simple. The best part about this contest, besides the easy entry, is that it continues each and every week with a new iPad to be given away. This means that you will not be competing for one iPad with hundreds of thousands of people over a six-month contest, as some people have to do. You will be competing with the people from only the week that you entered, moving the odds considerably in your favor. You will want to be sure to give Zagg a real email address, as you will never know if you won otherwise.

Another great contest is held at Den of Geek. This contest is only open through October 8th, 2010, as it is set to celebrate the release of the 25th Anniversary Edition of the Back to the Future Trilogy. These movies, which were so loved many years ago when they hit the theaters, are now coming to iTunes and DVD in their 25th Anniversary formats, and Den of Geek is giving away an iPad that you can use to watch the movies. To enter, you just have to answer a simple question about the movie: What year does Marty McFly travel back in time to in the first movie? The options give are 1985, 1975, and 1965. If you know the answer, email it in to Den of Geek through their website, and you will be entered in the contest to win the free iPad. Getting the question right does not guarantee that you will get the prize, but you can actually win this contest.

If you know how to create processes with Bonita Open Solution software, you can win an iPad just by showing off your best process. Bonitasoft.org is running a challenge where users are encouraged to share their best processes through the website. These will then all be considered and voted upon, and the winner will receive a free iPad. This challenge is only open to some, of course, as you have to know how to use Bonita Open Solution software. However, if you already use this, or are a part of their online community, this could be a very easy competition to win. There will not be as many other entries as there will be in different contests, such as those where people need only to submit an email address to be entered, something anyone can do. You will want to send in your very best process, though, as the competition on the site is sure to be stiff and you will have to produce a very high-quality process to have a chance at winning.
