Anytime you plan a large event, there is always a pang of what to do if no one shows up.  This contest was no different.  After weeks of planning, arranging for prizes, and even identifying the secret words and letters, I thought, what if we do all of this work and no one participates?  That was especially true with this contest, which did not lend itself to immediate feedback the way most contests do.

I need not have worried.  About halfway through the contest, the responses started arriving.  At first a trickle, and then a torrid flood of emails.  In all, we got a whopping 30 entries, almost all of which had the correct answer (for those of you wondering, it was KNIGHTS TEMPLAR).  Now, the contest has ended, and it is time to pick our winners.

The Second Prize winners will each receive:

1. a copy of Astraware Broken Sword
2. an Orion Gadgets USB Travel Kit
3. a USB Rotation Hub + All In One Card Reader

The second prize winners are Parelle and Maegan

The First Prize winner will receive the entire second prize package, as well as a Mobility Swag Bag worth several hundred dollars.  The swag bag includes all of the following gadgets:

• The Crumpler Skivvy Laptop Bag
• The Magnifico Screen Magnifier
• The USB Brando 55-in-1 Memory Card/USB/Bluetooth Reader
• The SeV 1/4 Zip Long Sleeve T-Shirt
• a Road Wired Cable Manager
• a BenzaCase universal slip case (your choice of brown or black)
• a Waterfield cargo mamba
• a Progear card reader
• a Freedom Antenna
• the Proporta laptop sleeve

So, who is the lucky first prize winner?  None other than Clark Thompson — Come On Down! 

And now, for the moment you have all been waiting for.  The Grand Prize Announcement.  The Grand Prize includes all of the following:

1. Everything included in the second runner up prize
2. All of the games on the Astraware Top 10 List
3. THE HTC TOUCH!!!

And the winner of the GRAND PRIZE is:

FRANK SU!

Thanks to everyone who participated.  This contest was a long time in the making, and the fact that thirty people took the time to play along and find the answers really made the whole thing worthwhile.  As a thank you for participating, everyone who submitted an entry (except, of course, our four winners) will receive a coupon from Astraware good for $5 off the purchase of Broken Sword. 

Based upon the success of this contest, I am sure you can look forward to a lot more joint ventures between Just Another Mobile Monday, Gear Diary, and Clinton Fitch(dot)com.  Thanks also to all of our fantastic sponsors who donated so many of the wonderful prizes, including Astraware, HTC, Orion Gadgets, and USB Fever.
