Adobe Needs Your Feedback - Enter to win a prize!

Read the email waiting for me in my inbox. Cool I thought, I like prizes and I love giving my feedback especially when it is solicited and there is a chance of winning something.

I've enjoyed being part of Adobe's beta testing program for both Coldfusion, Flex and AIR both in the public beta test as well as the closed betas. Anything to help Adobe improve the whole thing.

So I clicked on the link, and started answering the eligibility questions, age, place of residence which listed such places as (Canada, UK, USA, Mexico, Other). Since Germany wasn't on the list I chose Other and that was the end of the survey.

WTF! I checked the email again and realized I didn't read the disclaimer at the bottom of the email.

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN. COMPLETION OF THE SURVEY IS NOT REQUIRED TO ENTER OR WIN. SWEEPSTAKES IS OPEN ONLY TO LEGAL RESIDENTS OF THE UNITED STATES AND LEGAL RESIDENTS OF CANADA, EXCLUDING QUEBEC, WHO ARE AGE 18 YEARS OR OLDER.

So ok no prize, but I would also have given you my feedback without the bait of a prize...
