iPhone Giveaway
While running some errands during lunch today, I heard on the radio that Rush Limbaugh's radio program will be giving away 10 iPhones with ATT&T 450 service plan when you signup on his website, www.rushlimbaugh.com.
For everybody who wins an iPhone, we're buying you a two-year service contract with AT&T. We will send you a check, roughly $1500, that will cover the cost of a two-year contract, which is mandatory. You have to sign up for two years with AT&T when you get an iPhone. So you'll get the $1500 check, you'll get the iPhone, you're going to get a year subscription to Rush 24/7, and if you're a current subscriber, we'll extend your subscription by a year so that you can make full use of the podcasting capacity of the site in conjunction with the phone.

The very day you wrote this post you were ineligible to win an iPhone in Rush's giveaway. It is so misleading. I'm disappointed in Rush for doing this. The promotion period, during which you must sign up is only ONE DAY LONG, July 3rd. Quote from official rules of giveaway:
Rush in a Hurry iPhone Tuesday Giveaway Sweepstakes
OFFICIAL RULES
NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. A PURCHASE WILL NOT INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING.
1. PROMOTION PERIOD: Rush in a Hurry iPhone Tuesday Giveaway Sweepstakes (the “Sweepstakes”) begins at 12:00:01am Pacific Time on July 3, 2007 and concludes at 11:59:59pm Pacific Time on July 3, 2007 (the “Promotion Period”). All entries must be received during the Promotion Period.
Can you believe it? Most people will never read the rules and sign up in vain. Also, after the first day, July 5th, I haven't received any more updates!

Interesting comment. Regardless of the rules, I've been receiving daily e-mails and they state I'm still in the contest. I will post an excerpt below from an email from the Rush Limbaugh Show.
===========
John S. of Arden, North Carolina is the latest winner in our iPhone-A-Day giveaway. He just registered yesterday. Since you're reading this e-mail, you're already entered in the contest. You don't have to register again. Winners receive an iPhone complete with service plan, a subscription to Rush 24/7 & the Limbaugh Letter, and a $100 Boca Java gift certificate. We have four iPhones left. The next winner will be announced on Thursday's show.
