    I love gadgets. Cameras, phones, computers, consoles. But sometimes you need a good old fashioned book to help you get the most out of that cunning little electronic genie you've just been given for Christmas. We've got loads of gadget guides over here...

    Thanks to those nice people at Pearson, publishers extraordinaire of such gadget guides, we've got an iPad 2 to give away alongside a handy guide to the gadget de nos jours. Runners up prize is a great boxed set from photography whizz, Scott Kelby.

    All we ask you to do is answer the simple question below to be in with a chance to win. Entries close by Fri 30th December. Merry Christmas!
