    Sorry, had to post. I received the attached postcard in the mail today.

    I WON I WON I WON!!!

    I can't believe it, I won an iPad, but it's called a TouchPad Tablet PC, and it's running Froyo!!! Plus, since they know when I received it (because they know precisely how long the mail takes), if I call before 10pm I get a free 7 night trip to anywhere in the US. Isn't it an amazing country we live in!

    I wonder how many stupid people called? This lady was probably one of them: Woman Buys a Block of Wood with an Apple Logo Thinking It's an iPad

    Don't know if this is spam or meant to be funny.

    But it isn't an iPad if it isn't iOS.

    It was obviously meant to be funny and tongue in cheek. OP was making fun of the scam.

    Yep. Sarcasm is surprisingly easy to miss when it's written down however, I find.

    I don't know if you are lucky enough in the US but here in Great Britain we often get phone calls telling us we have been chosen to have a new fitted kitchen. Its makes one feel so special.
