I am just curious: what do you do with these hundreds of phones that
come out of test runs? After all due tests are performed on them,
could they be offered as a sort of lottery draw to list contributors? 
(without any warranty, at a reduced price, you name it...) Or do they
just throw them in the garbage bin?!?

(just hoping 8-)
