With nearly 100 video, song, photo, and even poem entries, getting to the ten finalists was no easy task. Now, it’s up to you to determine the three top winners of the pocketnow Turns Ten Contest, who will get to choose any phone from Wirefly.com to be sent to their door. These ten finalists were picked by the pocketnow staff. Extra points when to those that clearly spent the most time and effort to prove to us that they were our biggest fan. There are two runner-up prizes for those ranking in fourth and fifth place: a $100 savings from Wirefly.

…and, from the bottom of our geeky hearts, THANK YOU to everyone that participated in this contest. We’re all very proud to have such a fantastic readership.
