Even though I didn't get my project to the state I wanted by the deadline, and didn't post it, the contest did get me off my ass to start something. So, thank you. It did some good.

I got the most votes. I'll take the prize in CASH.

'Course, I'm curious how this ended up as well....

man, I didn't even post a project (because I didn't feel like it, not because I don't have anything to submit, soyaknow) and I'm dying to know. that "I'll write it up tomorrow" bit got me all excited and now it's coming up on Thursday with nothing. nothing!

Never underestimate mathowie. You would think he would forget about this old thread, but it must be all part of the suspense. He had me guessing until the last minute, anyway. (not to mention compulsively refreshing MetaTalk)

Oops. Hmm, I might have mistyped that at Apple without noticing. D'oh!

That's alright, haha, it makes it even funnier.

fuck, it shipped before I could get ahold of cust. service. I just ordered it yesterday afternoon too!

banished you get the commemorative 20055 contest winning iPod. It's really, really rare.

Just got it today, and you weren't kidding! It makes it that much more of a conversation piece though, I love it. Thank you MeFi!
