    First comment. Email sent!

  2. Jesse Says:

    Ya know, with all of these, some have been easy, some obscure, and others just bizarre.

    But this takes the cake as by far the easiest, in my personal opinion.

  3. Alan Parekh Says:

    Hi Jesse,

    I asked a few people about the image before using it and many didn’t have a clue. This one wasn’t meant to be a simple one but rather a medium difficulty one. If you have a tendency to take lots of stuff apart (as I do) then you probably would have seen one of these first hand. :)

  4. Sashi Says:

    Yeah, this one is really easy. I just hope nobody does that “It’s a used in ” comment crap.

  5. Shadyman Says:

    It’s a CCD sensor, used in cameras. Obviously.

  6. Chris Says:

    Its green, it must be a vegetable!

  7. Alan Parekh Says:

    LOL Shadyman,

    And the resolution is 25 DPI.

  8. Krusty Says:

    LOL I think I pull apart *way* too many things…

  9. adam Says:

    lol, i follow the maker philosophy “if you can’t open it, you don’t own it”. I take everything apart. so needless to say i’ve seen a few of these

    If we win are we getting the purple clip or can we choose the color?

  10. ChalkBored Says:

    I had a harder time figuring out what the prize was supposed to be.

  11. Maigo Says:

    It’s my birthday this week, I’d better win ;)

  12. jane jakins Says:

    pull lines

  13. Alfredo Says:

    Is a new version of ABtronic Belt?

  14. erik Says:

    Alan, Shadyman … more like 1 IPD :)

  15. Alan Parekh Says:

    Yup Eric that would be more like it or what about 10 DPF :)

  16. Brian Dalton Says:

    Do we have to have the correct make/model?

  17. Alan Parekh Says:

    Hi Brian,

    Nope, just what it is in general.

  18. Doomer Says:

    I sometimes even have to make things work again after guys which took them apart :)

  19. Andy Says:

    I think most of take it for granted that we know what this and other things are. Alan’s comment was pretty true as MOST people wouldn’t DARE to take stuff apart.
    I took one of those apart last week after an unfortunate incident involving my 5-year old and a glass of Orange Juice ;)

  20. Chris Says:

    Now this is my type of contest!

  21. Scott Says:

    I’m with ChalkBored. I still haven’t figured out what the prize is.
    I think I would get more use out of the puzzle piece. ;-)

  22. JJ Says:

    looks like a nipple grabber lol!!
