Honestly, ive entered one or two before, and as has my wife.... I assumed there was no prize, but i never really read it all.

Wow.... I had no idea this site was invite only, and that is sad

I think its fairly obvious that you " just don't get it " . I won't repeat what everyone else has said here.... but maybe you should be more informed about a subject that you comment so thoroughly on.

damn you...

The source article and the ICO statement seems to state that Google found it on their own:

generally speaking would't you be scanning this qr code from a mobile device? (yes some may use ipod touch's or the like but thats not the intended audience)

Back to back artists is something that can happen naturally in shuffle. If you don't like the order of a random drawing of songs brings then what you want is not random but a specific algorithm for your personal taste.

The QR code would probably contain unique information about the box: model/serial and can be used with a web service to activate and/or change settings on the device

I love that the comments on this post are relating to exactly what I did... review all the numbers and see how realistic they are. And to continue the trend:

depends on the speed, some of us pay more than most just so we can have "business class" internet....

damn.... this is why I miss our hearts

Well without the rest of it it will be a pretty disappointing device :P

note: the RT version is ARM based, and there (as of now) is no ARM Based CS6 options, so no. unless you get the Pro version (which I understand dosent work with the cover) there is no CS6ing happening here.

I think its also important to realize that the original page seems to be a personal creation (does not mention it was paid for by DNC, which i assume would be a requirement) And the new one mentions that it was paid for by the RNC

They even took the .gif of the blinking cursor... (i checked, hex is an exact match)

Saw this one some "museum mysteries" show or something like that the other day, i enjoyed:

Are you serious with this comment? Did you even read the article? Try for ONCE to set your political bias aside (I have and won't even hint as to where I sway)

You are in the category of people they are looking to force out, you are tethering when your in a plan that dosent have a tether option and using a large amount of data at that.
