    mine was just delivered today, by "DHL" (never heard of them before..)

    is there a certain tier you have to reach before they send one?

    surprised no one's talking about it :)

    They only send them to Digital Point moderators under 20 years of age to control Google comments on forum :)

    DHL is a very large air freight company that is now moving into ground to compete with FEDEX and UPS.

    Does the radio work? :confused:

    yep, it works. it's sort've neat... basically changes colors as you're listening. and there was a christmas card included in a bunch of different languages.

    and, oddly, it was addressed to my primary site, not me.

    Fryman, I study these things as a researcher, I can tell you exactly what has happened. :)

    Wacko Jacko seen your avatar, he called the venture capital folks that funded the Google IPO, they then called Larry and Sergey and poof, there went your SERP's man. :mad:

    Are you sure it isn't an adwords gift? Disgust you said it went to your primary site, do you advertise with adwords?

    That'd be outrageous if they didn't give us AdWords advertisers a little something! Surely, we're the ones that give them most of their ca$h!
