If you've poked around the site lately you've probably noticed that the "Accessories" link in the Blue Nav Bar now takes you to the Phandroid Accessories Store! To celebrate the launch we're giving away $100 in merchandise from the store in the Android Haiku Contest!

You can enter by posting a reply to THIS THREAD and here are the rules:


* 1st place gets anything under $50 from the store and 2nd and 3rd each get a $25 or less item
* You can enter by replying to this thread OR by replying to Phandroid Post about the Android Haiku Contest.
* There is no limit to how many entries you may submit.
* Make sure your information is correct so we can contact you if you win!
* Refresher: A Haiku is a 3-line poem where the lines feature 5 syllables, 7 syllables and then 5 syllables respectively. It does not have to rhyme.
* Your Haiku should be about Android, your G1, Dream, Magic, etc... you know the deal. Phandroid and AndroidForums staff will review the poems and select winners based on creativity, humor, uniqueness, whether or not it makes sense, etc... yada yada. We'll basically just be picking the ones we like most!
* Contest Ends on Thursday, March 12th at 11:59 EST and the winner will be announced at some point on Friday, March 13th. Hopefully that will make your Friday the 13th so creepy but rather delightful. For 3 of you at least.

Don't forget you can also enter on Phandroid.com! Hint: you CAN WIN TWICE but the only way to do that is have a winning entry on Phandroid and a winning entry on AndroidForums - you can't have 2 winning entries on the same site.

Oh yeah, we also redid the forums if you didn't notice ;)
We would love your feedback on that as well... just not in this post! HAIKU ONLY!
