Oh, it seems to be different from last time. Its not first come first serve (which crashed amazon). You vote for the one you want, and then on the day of there is sort of a random drawing to see if you get the option of buying.

Even if your choice doesn win the poll, there is still a discount! Here are the runner up prices:

Wii: $199
360: $219
PS3: $319

So vote for the one you want! The Wii is pretty much guaranteed to win the poll, but if you're buying one of the others anyway you might as well try your luck. Sadly I wont be around a computer on Nov 22 (when the drawing is held).

Heh, only interested in the PS3 since that's the only one I don't have.

Everyone should be voting for the PS3. Purely because it is an awesome discount. Do with it what you want later.

Someone needs to remind us to check back, because I will forget.

DING! A LING! A LING! A LING!

Well, you did tell me to remind you.  The first buying day was yesterday, for those who participated, or the winners, or whoever it is.  All I know is that it isn't me.

Well, shit.  There was no "first" buying day.  It was just yesterday.  It's over now, and I didn't check to see if I won... so if I had, I'll never know.  Though I suppose you just meant the first round, but in either case I didn't realize there was a time limit on it.  That's kind of stupid.
