There are two buttons. I believe the left one confirms and the right one switches to edit mode.

Anyone received dev alpha reward email?

I have 6 approved apps but only received cash reward email.

I wasn't lucky enough to qualify for a dev alpha device reward :-(

[luckypham]

they said all vendor have more than 5 approved apps can take dev alpha reward?

As announced at the Port-A-Thon, we committed 100 additional BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha testing devices to those who submitted 5 or more apps during the event. Winners for this draw will also be contacted.

also 'only' the cash mail

so not even the mail for a playbook (for two approved apps, got game portathon)

(6 apps approved, let's see if I get 6 times 100$ via paypal)

Anyhow, I already gave up on getting any device. I'm really disapppointed how the whole thing was handled. It's good that it was handled at all, but still, seeing how much additional energy had to be put in, I could have used that energy to create more apps. Couldn't even get myself to create anything new for the last 4 weeks :/.

No, only the first 250 or something like this, I do not remember, check the rules.

hmmm interesting.. I thought it was all that got 5 approved apps in.. not first 250

Also did not get email about DevAlpha reward, and i got more than  five apps. I get cash reward email only.

[nzcoderguy]

maybe you missed out on the first 250.. how soon after the port-a-thon weekend finished, did you get sufficient apps approved?

Get between five and ten apps approved – THE FIRST TWO HUNDRED (200) QUALIFIED PARTICIPANTS ONLY receive one (1) Dev Alpha Device in addition to other rewards
