Mine says shipped as well. I found it under my events in the upper left hand corner abover or below profile link. Scrolled to the bottom of the screen where my address is listed and it says shipped to: blah blah....

Hopefully it really has shipped. If so they are really on the ball with this deal.

It does say this in the fine print:

*Offer good in the United States and Canada only through April 17, 2006, while supplies last. This offer is available only to professionals employed in the area of software or Web development who watch three live or on-demand webcasts as part of the ASP.NET 2.0 Webcast Series. This offer is nontransferable. Microsoft is not responsible for nondelivery of gift due to incorrect postal information provided by respondent. Limit: one per customer. Please allow 6?8 weeks for delivery.

But, you may be able to still get it.

I didn't even use my work address. I Only listed my home using my company name. I didn't want a bunch of junk mail coming to my work from Microsoft with my name on it.:p

All you have to do is click the link and open it up.. don't have to watch the webcasts in full.. It recognizes once you open one up.. and will update your status on your main log in...

I think it was last year, there was a similiar deal for just the Visual Basic .Net standard edition, and I took part of it, and recieved it..
Hopefully this will come out just the same..

Thank you Microsoft!

There was.

Microsoft is actually much more generous than most consumers readily believe - especially toward small businesses. The offerings and giveaways at any of the live events (a number of which are completely free) are quite worth attending.

I signed in using my existing Passport account. Are the three webcasts shown on the main page the only ones available? Those don't interest me. I don't see a link to look up other webcasts -- does it come in an email?

Edit: n/m -- I see other webcast choices on the detail screen after clicking something on the main screen.
