Star Trek Phaser Remote Offer
Hey all, quick question, bought the Star Trek HD set recently and saw that they were offering a Phaser Remote Control. However, it says on the insert that the HD DVD set AND the HD DVD player must be on the same receipt. So since I already have the player, does that mean I can't get the phaser?

Set Phasers to Pause, Fast Forward, Skip Chapters
It may not be the home version of the transporter just yet, but it's a start. Toshiba and CBS Home Entertainment are joining forces to promote the November 20 release of the first season of Star Trek Remastered on HD DVD/DVD with an exclusive phaser remote. Complete with sound effects (which you can turn off!) you can now stun your family and friends every time you pause or fast forward your new HD DVDs!
This promotion runs from the November release date to February 29, 2008, and it requires participants to purchase both the HD DVD set and the Toshiba player within that time frame. (If you need a reminder about the HD DVD release, please refer to our previous article that gives you all the lowdown, including price and bonus features.) The form to fill out will be available with the Star Trek HD-DVD Combo boxed set.
Save those receipts! You will be required to provide proof of purchase to participate in the promotion. Note: If you purchase the HD DVDs online, you shouldn't be charged prior to the ship date so you will be eligible for the promotion.
With the new HD DVD technology fans can access interactive capabilities on certain episodes such as picture in picture commentaries, visual effects comparisons in the remastered episodes versus the originals, and an interactive tour of the Enterprise with a detailed exploration of the ship. The upgraded musical score and sound effects will also help immerse fans in the complete HD experience.
The phaser remote control operates Toshiba's HD DVD players. This offer is the only way to get the phaser remote as it is not sold in stores. Available while supplies last.

Two and a half weeks is less than a month. Can you return/rebuy at the same price?

Just buy an A3, return it, and mail the copy of the receipt in? Would that work? How can someone take advantage of this deal and the 5 free if both require the UPC?

Where's the love for the early adopters?! Great way to show appreciation for the early adopters...not!!! I guess my 10% discount at Amazon will have to be enough, but that remote control looks too cool
