Can I drive down and watch yours until mine gets here?

Absolutely. Gotta bring some titles though. VE shipped just the unit. I got some in my Netflix Q but they wont be here till tomorrow afternoon I think.

I got beer. A half barrel of Sierra Nevada draft ale. Its very delicious.

[riffjim4069]

I'm a big loser...and I didn't have any luck with the Toshiba Challenge!

[teamerickson]

Has anyone won anything? I think this is a scam.

Each time I am failing on a King Kong question since I haven't watched the movie - waiting for HD version...

You don't need to answer the questions correctly to enter. Also, with a total of 190 prizes, I doubt if anyone here will actually win anything. The odds are way against it. The following are from the contest rules (http://www.capturethebeast.com/rules_pop.html)

You will be asked up to two (2) trivia questions (you do not need to answer the questions correctly) and then be granted an opportunity to “spin the dvd” to see if you have won an instant-win prize.

...

There are a total of 190 prizes available in the Promotion. Odds of winning Promotion prizes depend on the number of eligible game plays received and the day and time of game play. The Quantity, Prize Description/Average Retail Value (“ARV”) of prizes in the Promotion are as follows:

(10) Grand Prizes: A Toshiba High Definition Entertainment System, including a 62” HD TV (62HM195) with stand and Toshiba’s HD-A1 HD-DVD player and a Sponsor selected collection of twelve (12) Universal Studios DVDs, (ARV $4,499.99 ea.);

(10) First Place Prizes: A Sponsor selected collection of twelve (12) Universal Studios DVDs (ARV $300 ea.);

Play every night getting better at the king kong triva since it's starting to repeat questions, and I haven't seen the movie yet. still haven't won yet.

 

[vurbano]

It says there are 3 models? What is the D1 model?

 

[Ilya]

HD-D1 is a modification of HD-A1 for Walmart. It has black case and square buttons. See the picture on our portal at hddvd.satelliteguys.us (on the left side).

I spin that damn wheel everyday. And lose every time. Whats frustating is knowing that if it were a real wheel youd never lose every single time.
