You know, I’m not even going to review this thing. We do have one in the family, and it’s been beneficial to both the seniors in the house, as well as the Brother. Marissa has a fascination with it, but she lacks the coordination to do anything with it.
If you have a kid with special needs, Apple’s just opened a section for Apps for this device, including a few talkers, a few Big Mac like devices, and other colorful and interactive tools for education. As time goes on, I think ours will be an important part of Marissa’s education and development.
My employer, a large mid-Atlantic internet company has given me one to give away. As part of the giveaway, my employer will match all donations given through November 10th! Donating won’t change your odds of winning in any way, but I’d sure appreciate it! Click here for our fundraiser page.
Anyway- the iPad is the super high end one- the 64 gig with wifi and 3g. It’s never been used, still sealed in Apple plastic. The rules are the same as they always are. This time USA and Canada entrants only, please! Here’s how to enter. Choose one method, choose many. Some will only ever give you one entry, some can be done once per day. Only do what you’re comfortable with, and please be sure to complete all steps for your method!
Method One (one entry per vote and email combo per day)
You’re probably familiar with this one.
Step One:
Vote for Marissa’s Bunny on topbabyblogs.com by clicking here. No registration is required.
Step Two:
On the landing page, be sure to get your vote counted by clicking on the “click here and your vote will be added” text.
Step Three:
Email Marissa and tell us you’ve done this.
Method Two (one entry total)
Step One:
Leave a comment here telling me what you’re going to do with the iPad.
Step Two
Be sure we know how to contact you. You don’t have to leave your email here, but do email it to Marissa and match it with the comment.
Method Three (one entry per tweet per day)
Step One
Follow us on Twitter, and tweet to your followers that we exist, and you’d like your followers to read us. A convenient shorturl for marissasbunny.com is http://alturl.com/xmkoc
Please include a hashtag. Include #marissasbunny to make it easier to find your tweet. Alternatively, if you don’t like hashtags, email Marissa and tell us your twitter name after you’ve tweeted about marissasbunny.com.
Method Four (one entry per post per day)
Got a blog over 6 months old that’s updated once a week or more frequently? Got another avenue of publicity? Write a post about this contest. Send Marissa an email with the details and a link to the post.
The Fine Print
Entry in the contest gives us permission to use whatever name you’ve provided us, whether it be your real name or your screen name for winner announcement purposes. If you work with me (and you know who you are), you’re ineligible for this contest. We won’t harvest your email address, ever, or sell them, ever. Entries close on November 7th at Noon eastern standard time. Winner takes all! Upon notification of a win by email or tweet, you’ll have 72 hours from the time the email or tweet was sent to respond to it with your mailing address. The iPad will be shipped to you straight from the provider.
Good luck, everybody!
Steve Jobs not included.
