Another giveaway has arrived, and this time we’re clearing out our New York City gear closet. We grabbed a Nomatic Messenger Bag and packed it to the brim with as much tech as we could physically fit inside. The result is an overstuffed bundle valued at more than $800, and one lucky winner will take the whole thing home when the sweepstakes closes on August 18th. Curious about what’s hiding in there? We’re not spoiling the surprise, though the official rules might offer a few clues if you look closely.
