Tide to give away Orange Nano

Gross. Makes me instantly think of the huge Tide-sponsored NASCAR team, and NASCAR makes me think of greed, product promotion, boring cars, boring tracks, boring drivers, and rednecks.

i saw somebody using one of these on the NY Subway a few weeks ago - it was the 1st Gen nano.

Hehe. I kinda like it. It has a bit of an Andy Warhol feel to it.

Why would I enter this contest and provide personal info to Proctor & Gamble (who turns it over to a sweeptakes administration company, who then sells it to marketing companies), and have them siphon off a portion of the ten bucks, for the privilege of providing P&G (market capitalization $198 billion) with free t-shirt advertising and a boost to their image? What kind of charity is that? Just give your money directly to the St. Bernard Project and feel good about it. Plus, you aren't going to win the iPod anyway. It's like that ETrade billboard I saw in Boston years ago: "Someone's going to win the lottery. Just not you."

The iPod ... award winning design ... marred by an advertisement for laundry detergent.

DETERGENT!

You can enter for free to win the iPod, read rule #3.

I don't think I'd buy either of those shirts for any price. I think it would be easier to just consider the cost to be a donation, and donate the shirt too.

Oh come on, it's $10 if you win on one ticket. And you get free music. And you get a shirt, regardless. Stop the hate.

Would I rather have a Halo 3 Zune or a Tide iPod? In this case definately the Zune. Just because it is Tide. That seems like something you would get for free with 5 proofs of purchase and $3.95 s&h. Atleast be a cool company.

Haven't you ever put a skin on your iPod? The clickwheel feels and works fine--just as it always has. I actually have a skin on my 5g and keep my iPod in a DLO VideoShell that adds another layer of plastic to the clickwheel and still, no problems what so ever. Haven't most people done things like this?
