    I do both Adsense and Adwords so I got two boxes from Google today. I opened one, it looks like it's missing the headset thingy.

    I think I have all of the items with other logos on them already but Google's logo make these cooler.

    :cool:

    Yeah, I don't make that much with them as well, so I doubt I'll get anything. They should rather give their presents to the poor, low earning publishers... the people making the real money could buy them anyway :D

    Damn, you guys are lucky. Those gadgets look pretty nice. I wonder what the criteria would be for them to send it to Adsense publishers? I wish I got one...

    I got it too. I'm pretty sure it's AdSense, because I have a friend who is AdSense-only and he got a kit too. I blogged it several hours ago. I could post a pic if requested, but it looks the same as the others posted here. The box says "From your friends at Google", but there're no other notes or info. Merry Christmas! :)

    I'm using the wireless mouse right now. It's exactly what I really needed!

    Thanks Google! I got the present and top ten rankings for most of my relevant keywords. Also the latest Yahoo update has moved me back into competion and MSN has my 4 primary keywords/phrases at #1.

    So all in all I'm feeling quite merry.

    In response to someone's "Are you a big publisher question" I don't know if this is an adwords or adsense present I do both. My adwords budget is very small and my adsense income is like $1500 a month. I suppose that would be considered midrange.

    Happy Holidays to all

    EDIT: Just noticed I think I got the cheap version the mouse isn't wireless and no headphones. (Da Bastads) lol

    I was thinking since I got the cheap version (mouse is not wireless and no headphone) I'd send it back and ask for a google babe instead..... but now I'll pass :p

    You're very lucky. Open that flash drive and start using it as soon as possible. If Google made a mistake, at least it was a good one! :)

    I just got some info from DHL that there is one for me too (but they have to fix something with the customs; I'm from Europe). Does anybody know if I have to pay those 43,16??
