Can!
After bitchin' about the gadget contest here and here, something good finally happened.. too good in fact :)
I never thought they'd give in bwahahaha! It's an HP iPAQ rw6828, just as the contest promised. In this case though, it wasn't exactly a contest. Because, uhh, I was the.. uhh.. only contestant? From all of Singapore? Bwahahaha! Loner-geek action at its best! o-o *adjusts imaginary specs*
So yeah, I want to thank my colleagues "Buttercookiez" (designer) and Arman (lent me his IC number so I can submit to the site lol) for helping me. Props to Engr Edwin Sarmiento for replying to my inquiries when I had trouble submitting the gadget to the contest site. And of course, Microsoft Singapore, for hosting such a big event lol.
Anyway, look at this awesome view from Microsoft office's 22nd floor in One Marina Blvd..
Vista is coming out next week. Please download my gadget here if you're getting Vista. I'll post about my iPaq adventures soon :)
Let's all learn from this experience...
It pays to be a persistent-pain-in-the-ass-geek. Bow.

only 1 person in singapore took part in the contest?
either singapore has no more programmers or they are also OT-ing at the office desk or ms didn't advertise this contest enough.
i assume it would be the third reason man.
but i did my own advertising in this forum board called "sgdotnet" (http://community.sgdotnet.org/forums/56807/ShowThread.aspx)
but nobody seemed to care.
