Aw, thank you! The video quality wasn't too high (stupid WMM), but for the audio, I used my husband's podcasting setup. Of course I had to rerecord several times because I kept tripping over my own tongue!

In spite of the scads of friends I could probably get to come vote for me, I've refrained. If I win, great! If not, I'll save my pennies for the N800 most likely; the N810 is quite a bit beyond my budget. That's the stay-at-home-mom thing -- if I went back to work, I'd get hit with a massive daycare bill for the two kids in exchange for a bit more spending money. Doable, maybe, but I'd rather spend more time with the kids (and husband, I suppose!), even if it means less extra spending money. Ah well.

But I have to say, this contest HAS brought more awareness of the Nokia N8xx products to my friends, family, and other acquaintances. I literally stumbled across the device's existance due to the randomness of engadget, leading me to Dan's blog. Certainly it would be great if Nokia saw fit to recognize some or even all of the video entries with a free (or even developer-priced!) N810, but I'm not holding my breath.
