Can't quite remember but I believe it was in the mail informing us of the
closure of the beta and thanking us for participation.

Yes, it was in the last email sent out, near the end of the email.

It is now 31/10/2003 and still no "gifts"

Good Grief. Y'all are twisting and spinning over a "gift" from MS arriving
by 31 October? Get on with life.

They started arriving for MVPs last week. Others should be receiving theirs
any day now. They started sending October 21 with the release of Office
2003.

On November 24 I received an FM radio and headphones for my participation in
the pre-release program (though I had been in the beta cycle since last
spring). Not to be ungrateful, but the radio is essentially useless.
