mlerner Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 I got the weather station today too, but I believe it's just the gift for the CEV. Quote the letter attached: The WLM gift is probably still yet to come ;) Yeah, must be just the gift for CEV. I don't think the WLM gift has gone out yet so now I got two gifts i'm waiting for!

Novaoblivion Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 I got nothing...I got invited by MS :( Yeah same with me I got the email saying to update my shipping address and it was already ok so I thought that was good enough. Maybe not? Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/474069-wlmessenger-beta-gift/page/6/#findComment-587769214 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaneSparky_YYZ Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 I haven't seen any pictures of this so called weather station gift. *adds to rumour mill* *starts new one* The gift is a garbage can for you throw more rumours into :laugh: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/474069-wlmessenger-beta-gift/page/6/#findComment-587769389 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watters Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Haha, if i was in your boots someone else got the gift I'd be saying it was just a lie too, but in this case its not :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/474069-wlmessenger-beta-gift/page/6/#findComment-587774772 Share on other sites More sharing options...
virtualmadden Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 For some reason I highly doubt that the messenger team would send something not related to instant messenging.

Eli Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 I guess we still gotta wait.....it sucks though cause since I update my information I have moved to a new house. I still have the ability to check the mail at the old place but it's tougher then I want it to be.

Veedems Veteran Posted August 16, 2006 Veteran Share Posted August 16, 2006 I just got mine today. I really didn't expect this. Thank you to MS for being so generous.

hotdog666al Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 If getting gifts is your motivation to participate in betas, you're in it for the completely wrong reason. Why on earth would I want to do work for MS for free??

mlerner Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Why on earth would I want to do work for MS for free?? Well I don't know, maybe to help improve Microsoft's software? Seriously, everyone complains about the quality of Microsoft software but no one will take time to test the products and improve the quality. :pinch: This ****es me off because people just sign up for the gift. Well then you are in it for the wrong reasons and this is why quality continues to decline. :no: So either stop complaining or sign up and actually help Microsoft. Sorry if this doesn't apply to you but I just had to rant. /end rant Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/474069-wlmessenger-beta-gift/page/6/#findComment-587791547 Share on other sites More sharing options...
