Amazon Kindle design contest: now its your turn to decide who wins!

Our Kindle contest that were running in cooperation with our good friends at Adafruit Industries and Amazon has drawn to an epic conclusion, and theres simply no other way to put it -- were blown away. We received literally dozens upon dozens of incredible, art gallery-worthy entries and it was all but impossible to narrow them down to a group of finalists -- but after an entire weekend of mulling, debating, and hand-wringing, weve done the dirty work and narrowed it down to a group of just twenty-three. Now, dear readers, the fate of five Kindles lies in your hands and your hands alone. The laser awaits.

So heres what we need from you: pick your favorite by 11:59PM ET on Monday, August 3rd. Thats it. Well take the five top vote-getters and award each with a 6-inch Kindle engraved with their design -- and of course, well post pictures of the finished products before they go out to their lucky owners.

Follow the break to see the entries (which you can click to see in larger form). Below each design, youll see a number -- these correspond to numbers in the poll, which youll find directly below the entries. Just choose your favorite by number and well take care of the rest.

Good luck, contestants -- and good luck picking from all of these amazing entries, readers!
