Good news! It looks like Canon is adding 24P video to the 5d Mark II. Even more exciting, in my opinion, is that the audio auto gain control is being modified so users can disable this feature or manually set the gain. If you’ve ever recorded audio on this camera, you will appreciate this feature. Below is the official announcement.
Pre-order it here: $46.99
According to Amazon.com:
Product Features

I love J&R Electronics. Right now, they have a campaign on Twitter to come up with safe-for-work slogans that end in “Since 1971.” The take the featured slogans and rotate them randomly throughout the site. Overall, it is a fun way to engage the audience.
Independently, I have been trying (unsuccessfully) to buy a Canon 5D Mark II kit from several retailers. While I was searching for a retailer in stock, I found an interesting collision between their slogan campaign and their inventory situation:
J&R Photo caption fail
Now, in J&R’s defense – no one has the 5D II kit in stock. This is just a funny artifact 
This is a commercial for the Sony Bravia LCD series TV. It features a bunch of creepy little clay rabbits animted throughout a generic large city, in vivid pulsating colors, set to the Beatles Rolling Stones’ song She’s a Rainbow. Just watch it and pass it on.

Those geniuses at Fallon London are at it again for Sony BRAVIA. First they had the bouncing balls in San Francisco, then the tower of paint in Glasgow, and now bunnies on the streets of Manhattan. Fair warning – if for some reason you’re scared of bunnies, don’t watch this video. The advertisement, titled “Play-doh” features 200 plasticine bunnies hopping around and a large 30 foot bunny in Thomas Paine Park in Lower Manhattan.
The ad’s director said it was technically the most difficult thing he’s done, “It is an incredibly difficult situation to control. You have New Yorkers wandering through frames and you have no say over it because we’re doing it for real.” It took 2.5 tons of plasticine, 40 animators three weeks to choreograph the bunnies, and 100,000 images for the 60-second spot. The ad, which was filmed over three weeks this summer, also features a crashing wave, a whale, and lots of New Yorkers.

From a commercial for the Lincoln’s 2009 MKS.
I really hope this song gets released on an album some day.
Just a clever commercial for English lessons
Notes:
In the 1952 movie Singin’ in the Rain, Gene Kelly does his famous dance routine along the street and by a lamp-post. For this commercial a replica of the Singin’ set was built, and three different dancers were filmed doing some modernized Gene Kelly moves. Then Kelly’s face was superimposed onto the new footage.
One of the modern dancers is David “Elsewhere” Bernal, notable for his pop-lock/liquiding style. (Pretty much everything in this ad where it looks like his body is made of rubber)

Created by ad agency Crispin Porter + Bogusky in Miami, Florida, Ikea’s quirky “Lamp” commercial won the Grand Prix award in the “Film” category for the world’s best TV and cinema ads at the 50th Annual Cannes Lions Advertising Festival.
