He should be getting a lot more than an iPod with $4000. I think a Mac  
laptop and a DV camera should go to him as well. He also received a  
Darth Maul lightsaber replica, signed by Ray Park. They closed the  
donations to soon though. It was only yesterday that this was really  
picked up by the mainstream media.

Hell, I am 31 years old and I still do that stuff. Just not on video.  
:-)

The videos are in mwv format. I had to use VLC to view them.

Good luck Star Wars Kid, may the Force be with you.
