I was Cingular's 25th million subscriber and all I got was this lousy cellphone

Cingular just signed up their 25 millionth subscriber and to commemorate the big event they went way out of their way and gave a lousy Motorola V220 cellphone to the person it turned out to be. They did make a donation in his name to the charity of his choosing, and it isn't that the V220 isn't plenty nice, but c'mon, hook the guy with a trip to Cancun or free lifetime service or something, not some phone he could have picked up himself for a few hundred bucks.
