Pink Zune. Contest Prize? Vote?
Posted by Chris Leckness on 10/24/07 in Site Items, Zune
Ok, so I have a problem. To some, it could be a dangerous problem. I have gadget addiction. Sometimes I buy $50-$800 gadgets without thinking twice. Often times these purchases happen just because I can. Most of the time, I don’t even need the gadget, but I can’t help it. I bought a 500gb iBook a few months ago because it was on sale (and it acts as a network drive), but I didn’t need it. I have two other external hard drives already. I plan to use it sooner or later, but for now… it’s sitting on my desk doing nothing.
Ok, now that I am out of the closet, here is my recent dilemma. I was so impressed with Ford/Microsoft’s gesture donating 100% of the sales for the Pink Zune, that I couldn’t live without it. Well, I did always want a Pink Zune, but I don’t need it. I have a black and white one already and Zune 2 is around the corner. I got the Pink Zune and I don’t know what to do. My daughter is happy with iTunes and has a ton of my money invested in songs on her iPod. My wife loves the size of the newest Nano and my son is rocking out with his Sandisk Sansa Shaker… As I type this, I am rocking POD in my right ear (Left earpiece is cocked up so I can hear the phone) through my Motorola HT-820 Bluetooth headphones via the ATT Tilt. SO, I DON’T REALLY NEED IT. So, I am going to have a vote on what I should do.
Vote in this poll to determine it’s fate! (if you can’t see the poll, visit the Original Blog Entry Link)
On the Ebay option. I have not sold one item I have purchased or had given to me because of aximsite/mobilitysite ever. I would rather keep them or give away in a contest.

Next time, don’t buy it, just donate the money directly and cut out the middle man. Then you can take the tax deduction.
As for what to do with this, how about take offers for it. Give the money to charity.
It could be a great contest to boost traffic on the new setup at dapsite.com!
Give it away, give it Away, give it away now. Give it away, give it Away, give it away now. I wish I could post that like Anthony Kiedis sang it.
I like the linking of a contribution to the Red Cross to enter the contest idea. That way everybody that enters would be eligible to get a medal!
