NO PURCHASE REQUIRED TO ENTER OR WIN. VOID WHERE PROHIBITED.

TO ENTER. Simply visit the promotion (Sweepstakes) page on the HandStory web site at /product/promotion.html and provide your email address during the Promotion Period. When finished, click Submit to Enter. In addition to being entered in the Sweepstakes, you will also be added to our email list to receive the HandStory Newsletter (the "Newsletter"). HandStory (the "Sponsor") is not responsible for garbled, illegible, or misdirected Sweepstakes entries, or for any error, human, technical or otherwise, which may occur in the processing of Sweepstakes entries. Proof of sending will not be deemed to be proof of receipt by Sponsor.

LIMIT: One subscription entry per email address.

TIMING. The HandStory Sony CLIETM TG-50 Give Away Sweepstakes begins at 12:00:01 a.m. Eastern Time ("ET") on March 14, 2003, and ends at 11:59:59 p.m. ET on April 30, 2003 (the "Promotion Period"). All entries must be received by 11:59:59 p.m. ET, April 30, 2003 . Entries received prior to or after the Promotion Period shall be disqualified.

USE OF DATA. Sponsor will be collecting personal data about participants when they enter the Sweepstakes. Please review our privacy policy at /company/privacy.html. By participating in the Sweepstakes, entrants hereby agree to all personal information uses and disclaimers as explained in the HandStory privacy policy.

ELIGIBILITY. The Sweepstakes is open to all residents of the fifty United States and the District of Columbia who are 18 years of age or older at time of entry. Void where prohibited by law. Employees of Sponsor or its affiliates, subsidiaries, advertising or promotion agencies are not eligible, nor are members of these employees' families (defined as parents, children, siblings, spouse, and life partners).

AGREEMENT TO OFFICIAL RULES. Participation in the Sweepstakes constitutes entrant's full and unconditional agreement to and acceptance of these Official Rules.

SELECTION OF POTENTIAL WINNER. Winners will be determined by a random drawing conducted by Sponsor once the Promotion Period ends from the then current list of people who have downloaded the Free HandStory Basic or have purchased HandStory Suite from HandStory.com, Handango.com, or PalmGear.com. Entrants can only win one (1) prize during the Promotion Period. Sponsor's decisions as to all matters related to the administration of the Sweepstakes and selection of winners are final. Entrant selected must comply with all terms and conditions set forth in these Official Rules, and winning is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements. The potential winner will be notified by email. If a potential winner cannot be contacted within TEN (10) days after the first attempt to contact such potential winner, an alternate entrant will be selected in his or her place at random from the then current list.

PRIZE. Two (2) winners will receive ONE (1) Sony CLIETM TG-50 each, approximate retail value: US $399.00 each. All taxes, fees and surcharges on prize are the sole responsibility of the winner. No cash or other substitution of prize permitted except by Sponsor, who reserves the right to substitute the prize with another prize of equal or greater value. ODDS OF WINNING DEPEND ON THE NUMBER OF ELIGIBLE ENTRIES RECEIVED. Winners must execute and return an affidavit of eligibility/release of liability and publicity within twenty-one (21) days of notification. Noncompliance within this time period may result in disqualification, and an alternate winner will be selected. Return of any prize or prize notification as undeliverable may result in disqualification and selection of an alternate winner.
