win a treo, today only

I love my Palm Tungsten C. It’s imo the finest pda-type device ever made. Palm makes a very similar device, the treo, that is also a cell phone, and the truth is I’d get one myself if Verizon didn’t want over $400 for it. Today is my chance, and now yours, to get one for free. They’re giving one away for free every 5 minutes between 12 noon EST and midnight. Just click on over and suffer through their interactive advertisement thingy and pray for the best.

This is a great advertising approach, I think. A year or so ago my Bowdoin colleagues and I spent most of a day obsessively clicking on a logitech website in order to win a wireless keyboard and mouse they were giving away, and three of us actually won. Let’s hope I’m as lucky today.
