This saga began back in April when I completed the first of 5 "offers" required to become eligible for a new PSP, free of charge on the internetopiniongroup.com web site.  It wasn't the smoothest path in the world, but today the good folks at UPS delivered it, and (fortunately) it was still here when I got home from work.  Here are the pictures before and during the opening of the box from Tech Depot:

As you can see above, it is definitely possible to get a free PSP if you're willing to work at it a bit!
