Because of the overwhelming response, Sony ran out of instant ecoupon codes and decided to change the terms of the offer. Some people managed to do things like trade in 9 junky cell phones for a $450 (!) GC at their local Sony Style store. Yikes!

Sony CS says that if you submitted before they changed the terms of the offer, your coupon should come soon and will be without the minimum purchase requirements.

Sorry to ruin it for you MR folks... I had no idea that FW and SD would slam them so hard and bring the deal down.
Yeah, if you see a deal on FW or SD, it's over in a matter of hours.
At least you posted here first
Thanks for that, I've got a $5 cover on the way in exchange for an old Sony MP3 player.
