I got both emails few days ago. Email with Dev alpha and playbook instructions on Dec 12. and cash reward on 14.
Devices were not shipped yet, and reward email states that it will take 1-2 weeks to make a payment. So it will take some time to receive them

They've started shipping devices already. I've received my devices early friday morning via fedex. Still have one app pending from the first port-a-thon. Imagine once thats approved, I'll receive an email regarding the cash.

I read something stating the Dev Alpha is a temporary use device that we are supposed to return once BB10 officially launches. Cool to tinker around with it, but I also read something about getting a final build of a BB10 once we return the Dev Alpha to BB.

Any truth to that? Is that for everyone that received a Dev Alpha device? I didn't see anything about it in the terms and conditions from the first port-a-thon.

Lucky you. Yes, Dev Alpha is temporary device. You may keep it, but it will be shut down by RIM in near future. You can exchange your Dev Alpha device for a limited edition device. There is no info about this device yet. It will be available only to devs that had Dev Alpha.

I've received an email from Milestone about the cash reward but heard nothing from Touchstone about the free playbook.

The Milestone email was asking to confirm paypal email address for payment.

Anyone else still waiting to hear from Touchstone?

I got email fromtouchstone but not milestone.

Looks like I spoke too soon.  I DID get Milestone's email.  It was in my spam box!  It was sent 3 days ago.

Check your spam box for Touchstone or Milestone, especially if you're using Yahoo Mail or Gmail.

Yep...  I just found I got it too.  Checked my spam folder.  /me sighs

Now, I wonder why it would possibly take a week.
