If you vote for the deal that gets the most votes in the end, you will be eligible to receive a claim code only for the winning deal. If you vote for one of the runner-up deals, you will be eligible to receive a claim code only for that deal, at the runner-up discount. (The runner-up discount won't be as ridiculous as the winning discount, but it will still be pretty darn good.) Remember: you are eligible to buy only the deal that you voted for; you need an authorized credit card on your account; the claim codes will be distributed only to randomly selected customers.&quot;</em><br /><br /><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/zt/2006/wey-20061209-zuneamazon.jpg" alt="" /><br /><br />It's pretty simple. <a target="_blank" href="http://promotions.amazon.com/gp/holiday/cv/homepage/103-6748250-5685422">Vote</a> for the Zune, hope that it's the winning deal (hey, we have to give Tickle Me Elmo some credit), and if you're lucky enough to score a code, you can pick up a brand new Zune for $90. Unlike the infamous Xbox 360 offer, codes are pre-allocated, so you won't have to worry too much about Amazon's servers dying in the heat of the moment. Voting ends at 11:59pm (PST) on December 10, and on December 12, codes will be randomly distributed. Good luck!

I don't wanna drag this too far off topic, but have you guys seen that Elmo in action? It's frigging amazing. For a robot to be able to right itself like that... WOW... :eek:

I voted. Hopefully I'll get selected.

[Aaron Roma]

I'm going to vote, but I'd be suprised if Elmo doesn't win. Maybe I'll get lucky though, and be able to pick up a 2nd Zune unit for the wife. (Maybe I'll get even luckier and get an orange unit!) :)

[Chris Gohlke]

Actually the Zune has a sizable lead. Elmo is a distant third. Probably because Elmo is only discounted $9.99 from the regular price wheras the Zune is an almost $150 discount.

I guess no one got the hint of sarcasm in my original post. Did y'all think Elmo would really win? ;)

[Paul Martin]

I voted for the Zune...here's hoping! :)

Only because of the demand. That thing is in HUGE demand here.

[Darius Wey]

Zune won convincingly (57.4% of votes). Hopefully, some of you will be fortunate enough to score codes. :)

[Aaron Roma]

Yep! I just noticed that. Here's keeping my fingers crossed... if I can pick up one of these, I'll finally be able to "squirt" myself! (Wait... did I just say that outloud?) :D Of course here's hoping that I'm really lucky, and I'll get one of these AND it will turn out to be a limited edition orange unit, and I can pass on Brown to my wife!

As I don't have a portable music player, I'm hoping I made the "cut". You know, you could always paint it orange. :eek:

[Paul Martin]

Bummer, just read the rules and your credit card had to be on file WHEN YOU VOTED. Mine had lapsed and I hadn't updated the info. Oh well...

[Paul Martin]

As expected, no e-mail here. Anyone from Zunethoughts get selected in the Amazon deal?

[Aaron Roma]

"We're very sorry!"

Nope! :( Ah shucks.

[tmL]

Not me either! T.T
How the rest of you guys do?

[Chris Gohlke]

No Zune, but I did score the prime deal, a tent, bike, and swiss army knife. Since the promotional certificate from the prime deal ended up working on the tent and bike, I ended up getting around $400 worth of stuff for $120.
