The prizes are nice, but that is not what it's about. It's a new platform to explore that is not Windows. With the BeOS it was about a new OS designed using the latest software engineering techniques rather than as a mutation of an OS designed in the 70s for a 8 bit microprocessor. I love platforms. I love to learn about them and take them apart to figure out how all the pieces fit together. The best way to do this is to build something using the platform. I wasn't planning on submitting anything to the ADC but one thing lead to another and the app I started to explore Android turned into something usable so I submitted it. The same thing happened with the BeOS.
