1. Hopefully it's a good indication that the N900 starts mass shipping soon. (aside from the lucky bastards Dell has ordained as worthy)
2. To make sure that people know that while Swoopo is not a scam, it does rely on a failure of rational behavior, similar to the dollar auction: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dollar_auction . In other words, it's quite likely that the only winning move is not to play.
2. If anyone was seriously considering bidding on Swoopo anyways, it should be discussed here - If TMO bids as a block, it saves our community money, and that's a good thing.
