    Congrats to all the finalists, curious if the second round of voting is going to last 1 week or 2?

    It would be good if this post actually *linked* to the videos.

    The videos are very easy to find…why not get the palmSpot app? Or visit our dedicated palmSpot page?

    I would like to give big props to everyone who put their time and talents towards this great community event and I watched all the entries and everyone rocked. In the end there will be a winner(s) but as far as i'm concerned there were no losers

    Thank you

    Isn't the whole point of the contest to win a Palm Pre? Would be hard to download the app without one. But I guess I am in the small percentage of people that submitted a video without actually owning a device. :) Still hoping my wife can get one so I can at least play with it.

    Well, like you said…most people probably have a Pre already. However, if you don't the videos are still easy to find on the dedicated palmSpot page. :)
