I was mainly interested in sending this to my sister, who was very interested in my Pocket Pro. She may already have a Facebook account, so I'll go ahead and send her the information.
edit - There isn't (or wasn't yesterday when I looked at it) anything on the sweepstakes page that says you have to be a member of Facebook to participate in it until you fill out all of the info and try to submit it which then just takes you to a log in page. In the future, you may want to add something stating that you have to be a member of Facebook to participate. Since I wasn't hoping to win one for myself, I'm not all that annoyed, but I would have just sent the link to my sister instead of trying to enter myself if that had been clear beforehand.

I think the sweepskate is like an application/feature on facebook. So I guess that facebook assumed that you are a member... But yeah, I guess that RobertB should mention in the first post that you must be a member to participate. Didn't know that insurance companies come up with such ideas to make people pay higher premium -.-
