I have a question about the timing of contributions to a HSA.

I qualified to start an HSA last year, but never got around to it. I opened up one about a month ago, and put in a small contribution. I saw where you can keep contributing for last year up to Tax Day in April. Can I max out my contribution ($3050) for 2010 and use it for an above the line deduction in 2010, even though I didn't open the account until 2011?

Edit: Thank you for the answer!
