Living in Canada (same as Jason) this gets a little old after awhile. Why can't these companies see that if I'm good enough to sell their products to in Canada, I should be good enough to win their contest in Canada. :?

Yeah, I get tired of this too, but I'm sort of used to it now. :roll: I have such lowered expectations that if a contest is actually open to Canadians, I'm deeply shocked. :lol:

Win a Pocket PC Phone Edition
:cry: :cry: :cry: I really do feel sorry for you guys. I'm already signed up. If I win I'll sell it to you unless it has 64MB RAM. That's the one thing I keep hoping for in the next one.

contests in Canada
The problem with the giveaways in Canada is from what I am told, related to the taxation levied by the government on such things.

Re: Feeling left out
U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.! :rock on dude!:
Only kidding! I'm just glad that based on your two posts, the odds of me winning went from 1,000,000,002:1 to 1,000,000,000:1.
P.S. (I was thinking about the violin-playing emoticon, but it IS ridiculous that the best PocketPC site is run by a person who is ineligible for Microsoft giveaways.)

Microsoft is also giving away a Smart Display a day.
Thanks for posting on this, Jason. I entered when I first saw it advertised on PPCT, but then I couldn't find my way back. I'm going to enter both contests every day 0X (keeping my fingers crossed).

Bah! More people die of cancer or a heart attack in Canada in a day then all the SARS deaths combined. Pure FUD. Go on a place, eat Alberta beef, and have fun! WOO! :mrgreen:
But the no XDA part is sadly true. :|
