Hasta La Gadget!

If you’ve been debating on possibly purchasing a new Motorola smartphone, this next week and a half would be the best time to finally take the plunge as Google is announcing a new promotion that will make you $50 bucks richer if you purchase one of the eligible Motorola devices.

Starting today until March 4, you can earn a $50 gift card if your purchase any of the following devices: DROID RAZR M, DROID RAZR HD, DROID RAZR MAXX HD, DROID RAZR, DROID RAZR MAXX, DROID 4, ATRIX HD, ATRIX 2, PHOTON Q LTE, PHOTON 4G, TITANIUM, ADMIRAL, ELECTRIFY M, ELECTRIFY 2, ELECTRIFY, DEFY XT.

You can pick up your Motorola device from either a local wireless retailer or straight from Motorola themselves. Once you make your purchase, you’ll need to wait up to two weeks in order for your rebate to be processed. Once you’re given your $50 Google Play gift card, you’ll need to redeem it before May 18, or else it’ll spoil and leave a rotten smell in your wallet or email inbox.

With Apple having recently introduced its novel Passbook feature in the latest version of iOS, it’s only natural for app makers to try and take advantage of such miscellaneous hub. With that in mind, Gyft — a 2012 TechCrunch Disrupt finalist — has made its application fully compatible with Cupertino’s newfangled iOS 6, adding support for the iPhone 5’s 4-inch screen and, most importantly, the ability to add gift cards from many retailers to Passbook; some of which include Amazon, Target, Lowe’s, GAP, American Eagle and Starbucks. You can grab the Gyft (v1.2) application now directly from your iDevice, or there’s always the link below if that makes it slightly easier for you.

If any of you tuning in from the US have ever wondered why you can’t buy a Spotify gift card for the internet radio lover in your life, well, you can quit pondering: Target is now selling Spotify credits in its brick-and-mortar stores — a first in the US. The cards are available in $10, $30 and $60 amounts, which translates to one, three and six months of service, respectively. As you can imagine, you need a Spotify Premium account to redeem them, so make sure whoever you’re buying for has a subscription or at least intends to sign up. Still, we have to say: a month of ad-free radio and offline playback could make for a nice last-minute gift, even if the lucky recipient chooses not to hang around after the included free days expire.

Remember that Google Play gift card support we told you about just this morning? Well now things got real. Literally. The pic above shows one of the shrink-wrapped critters in a $25 denomination. Android Central claims they were sent a few different pictures, showing $10 varieties also — and as we can see from the box — they’re good for music, movies, books, apps and (mysteriously) “more.” So if you’re after that hot new game, now’s about the time to start dropping hints to your nearest and dearest.
