Some people think that telling the difference between day and night would be one of the easiest things you could do and being able to afford a $300 000 a mere piece of jewelry would be one of the hardest. This watch is not for them. Behold the Day & Night watch by Romain Gerome. For those who see telling the time as a peasants hobby and for whom it is always spend o’clock. It originally sold for $300 000 but sold out within 48 hours of launch so you’ll have to resort to the second-hand market to obtain one, likely with significant markup. But hey, if markup is of concern to you then this watch was never for you in the first place. Right?





Pure Digital Technologies Inc. isn’t the most well known of brands. Ask people what they make and most wouldn’t know but show them a Flip Video camera and they’re instantly interested. Its quite a nice lineup of products they’ve got with a very focused direction; simplicity in photography. The Flip Video series has been tremendously well received by bloggers and social media aficionados but yet the brand, in Canada at least, is relatively unknown.With a value price point and a solid product you would think the original Flip Video cameras would be tremendously popular but soon after their release in Canada they started to show their age in as much as they did not support high definition. By that point it was fast becoming a necessity. The cameras promoted their Easy-To-YouTube abilities so then once YouTube began to support HD footage, the lack of HD in the Flip cameras became the elephant in the room.
We have finally had some respite after the holiday game release rush of 2008. There were just so many games to check out in such a little timeframe. It was quite an unfortunate situation for many publishers. There is only a finite amount of consumer attention to go around after all. We still don’t know too much about games slated for 2009 though there are a few slated for first quarter release that we had been looking forward to. Halo Wars is high up on that list and we’re quite pleased that the publishers decided to delay the release until after that rush so we could take the time to give it the attention it deserves.
