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
- New items include the propeller suit, which will shoot players high into the sky with just a shake of the Wii Remote and Mario¿s new ability to transform into Penguin Mario.
- New Super Mario Bros. Wii offers a combination of cooperation and competition. Players can pick each other up to save them from danger or toss them into it.
- Supports 2-4 players in multiplayer mode.
- Mario, Luigi and two Toads are all playable characters, while many others from the Mushroom Kingdom make appearances throughout the game. Players can also ride different Yoshi characters and use their tongues as weapons.
- Players can use the motion abilities of the Wii Remote controller. The first player to reach a seesaw might make it tilt to help his or her character. reach a higher platform ¿ and then tilt it incorrectly just to mess with other players.
I case you were living under a rock and missed it, the EOS 7D is official.

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.

Dear Kindle Owner,
We are excited to introduce Kindle 2—the next generation of our wireless reading device.
As a current Kindle owner, we’d like to offer you a special opportunity to be among the first to experience Kindle 2. Even though we’ve increased our manufacturing capacity, we want to be sure our original Kindle owners are first in line. Order Kindle 2 by midnight PST on February 10th and you will be given priority.
We kept everything you love about your Kindle—the convenience of reading what you want, when you want it, the immediacy of getting a book wirelessly delivered in less than 60 seconds, and Kindle’s ability to “disappear” in your hands so you get lost in the author’s words. And we added some features we think you’ll really like.
Sleek and slim, the new Kindle has seven times more storage and holds over 1,500 titles. An improved display provides even crisper images and text for an enhanced reading experience. Page turning is faster, the battery life is even longer, and our new “Text-to-Speech“ features means Kindle can even read to you.
Learn more about Kindle 2 and reserve your place in line today.

This is simply the coolest print ad I’ve ever seen. Print out the ad http://mini-cabrio.ar-live.de/res/anzeige.pdf and then go to http://www.mini.de/webcam. You will have to work through some German language installers but it is worth it. Once that is done, click on “USB Video Device” or similar to begin!

From a commercial for the Lincoln’s 2009 MKS.
I really hope this song gets released on an album some day.
Here is a great old commercial for one of the first electronic pocket calculators. It was released in the 70s for around $350 which would be closer to about $1200 adjusted to 2008 currency. I think I’ll stick with my TI-89.
I’ve recoded this from the source to provide a better version than you can find on YouTube or other sites. Check it out!
