Four short-listed ‘Technoholics’, chosen in a month-long online hunt, will immerse themselves in the ultimate tech life for three whole days in the Digital Playzone, in full view of the public.

This will include performing entertaining acts and completing a series of increasingly difficult tasks involving use of technology and multiple gadgets. The public can watch, participate, rate, interact, blog and comment on the tasks the technoholics are to complete.

The last one standing will be crowned India’s Resident Technoholic and win a trip for two to Rio for Mardi GrasS and Nokia’s new N81 multimedia entertainment device.

The public stand a chance to win an N81 too! by participating in the Digital Playzone online and send in suggested tasks for Technoholics. To be hosted by Tech Guru Rajiv Makhni, the Indian chapter of Nseries Digital Playzone is part of a contest being held in seven countries across the region. The Nokia Nseries Digital Playzone brings both technology and entertainment aspects of the modern digital lifestyle together.

The challenge
 Technoholics have been chosen by Nokia and a special panel to enter Nokia Nseries Digital Playzone. Through a series of tasks over three days, three will be eliminated and one will emerge as the champion.  “Popularity” tasks require technoholics to perform range of acts, in collaboration with the audience, around imaging, music and gaming. “Elimination” tasks (one per day), other hand, dramatise the key functionality of Nokia N81 and determine who is eliminated from the Digital Playzone, highlighting the key features of Nokia N81 — music, games and movies.  For real time updates, long on to www.nokia.co.in/digitalplayzone.
