Win a Dell XPS M1330 laptop or BlackBerry Curve 8230 in a monthly sweepstakes to promote the BetaBlue, JetBlue Airway’s new Wi-Fi airplanes (cool!). Enter at stayconnectedinflight.com.

Win a $599 Bowers & Wilkins speaker system plus a $100 Apple Store gift card from iLounge, the all-things Apple site based in Irvine. iLounge is looking for a cool new “app” for the new iPhone and is inviting iPhone developers to submit a screen shot of their creations to iLounge’s Application Gallery. On July 25, editors will pick the top three fromSamsung Instinct, available from Sprint three categories: “Games,” “Business/Professional” and “Just Plain Cool.” But every entry gets its own page, so … everyone wins? Enter at iLounge.com.

Speaking of apps, Sprint’s Instinct, a.k.a. the latest “iPhone killer,” needs more of them. So, Sprint’s hosting its first developer contest. Grand prize: $20,000! The Instinct Java Developer Contest wants cool software for the new touch-screen phone. Grand prize includes the $5,000 membership fee to the Sprint Professional Developer Program. Two runner-up’s get $5,000. More details HERE.

Sprint is also giving away five of these new Instinct phones, according to Intomobile.com. All you have to do is tell Sprint a story on cool things you do with your phone and e-mail it to youtellus@sprint.com. However, I couldn’t find this contest on Sprint’s site so no more details are available.

Just in time for California’s new hands-free driving law to go into effect, you can win a Jawbone Bluetooth headset (these are nice! I’ve been trying one out myself).  Mobile Tech Review is giving one away if you comment on its site and tell them what’s in your gear bag. Easy, eh? Deadline is July 1 at midnight, PST.
