- Where are the official rules posted? Because http://www.netgearappcontest.com/ is offline.
- So the site came back up today, saying contest over and only a link to the rules: http://netgearappcontest.com/NETGEAR_Mi ... _Rules.pdf
So back to my first question above from July which was not answered...
At least one of the apps on the leader board were not developed by USA residents...
Your rules clearly say "Not Eligible: Residents of countries other than the United States." - https://developer.netgear.com is still down. And it sounds like some Genie people have left NTGR this week :/
- The new site is apps.readynas.com
- They should give the million to split between super-poussin and whocares? and hire them build the app store and apps.
+1 !!! http://rnxtras.com/ looks like a good start.TeknoJnky wrote: They should give the million to split between super-poussin and whocares? and hire them build the app store and apps. - Two days left until the "winner" is announced...
After the Top App Developer (“Grand Prize Finalist”) has been announced at the grand prize event on January 6, 2014 - TicTac TicTac :P
- we are not able to see the competitor from the official page : http://netgearappcontest.com/LeaderBoard.aspx :( lost on the black star ?
- No news, No Winner ?? perhaps could Netgear give the money to a charity organization ?
