Before we announce the big winners, let me take a moment to thank you all.

We are proud to have you all as readers and I hope that we bring a little fun to your day. Hats off to our intrepid winners and we’ll see you next year… hmmm… 20 days of CrunchGear?
First, Wednesday’s winners:
The Avatar Mouse: Tuillip
