Just holding this sleek camera in your hand is bound to lift your spirits even before you have witnessed its mean functionality for yourself. The Canon IXUS 100 IS is a 12.1 MP camera with 3x-optical zoom, 2.5-inch PureColor LCD II screen, and anti-blur plus face/motion detection technology. What is of real interest however, is the "HD Movies" capture mode that allows you to create high-definition movies at 1280x720 resolution, 30fps and then play them back on your plasma or LCD HD TV for some royal viewing pleasure. The camera delights in several colors - energizing red, stylish black, traditional silver, flashy gold - and you can pick one that most suits your personality.
We think this might even be the perfect gift for your mother if you are still looking for one. And you will always be credited for giving her a hand in creating high-quality family memoirs, we promise. All yours for $445 from Canon UK.

Ever wonder why the "perceived" value of any gadget rises parabolically when you attach the tag "special edition" to it ? Well, not to worry if you haven't, you can still gawk at this all-white Leica M8, due to be out soon in extremely limited numbers and exclusively from Leica.
The German camera maker has retained the specs of the original M8 rangefinder though, while dousing the body in pure white - the camera comes with an all-white casing, a white leather trim and brushed aluminium controls. Even the lens - Elmarit 28mm ƒ2.8 aspherical - follows suit with a silver finish. Truly some lovely eye-candy to add to your photo equipment if you are a rich kid, even if you choose to overlook the trademark hand-assembled body and fine quality that each Leica has been traditionally associated with.
No news about the pricing or release date just yet, so just keep your fingers crossed and expect to drop a huge bundle on this little fella.

They say that Apple will start selling a no-contract iPhone on Thursday (March 26). Of course there's a tradeoff for that lack of commitment - a pretty big tradeoff. $599 (for 8GB) or $699 (for 16GB).
Sigh. Here's Engadget's take on this event. And here's Geek.com's puzzlement over what AT&T is up to here. The confusion stems from the fact that you must already be an AT&T customer to get this deal.

Take the guess work out of your photo's white balance post-processing with this White Balance Lens Cap. Put your camera in White Balance mode and snap a picture with the lens cap still on the camera. The camera does the rest of the work, adjusting the white balance to get true to life colors in your pictures. Especially helpful if your camera allows for white balance adjustment but does not take pictures in RAW format.
The handy lens cap replaces your old one, takes no additional space and does not get lost in your camera bag. Fortunately, it comes in a variety of sizes: 52, 55, 58, 62, 67, 72 and 77mm. Pick one up here.

If your honey, sweetie, snuggle bear...you get the picture... is telecommuting with you, think about getting them the new Eyeball webcam with HD-quality audio and video.It's great for instant messaging, video conferencing, social networking and the pro-quality condenser capsule and high-fidelity mic gives it better sound than any other webcam we've tested.
What's unique about the Eyeball is the retractable camera lens which preserves your privacy and ensures that the Eyeball turns itself off when you aren’t broadcasting. With the unique monitor adaptor and compact size, it's easy to take anywhere.
System requirements: Macintosh: Mac OSX (10.4.11 or higher)
Windows: Vista; XP Professional; XP Home Edition, 64MB RAM (min). Approx.$99 Amazon.

All those hours that you have spent chewing away your nails, trying to find that perfect plan to nail that awful colleague, will now see fruition. True - with the AME-105 spy camera which happens to be a 1.3-meg, 4GB video camera hidden within a phony ID card. So if no one spots the fact that you have worn the wrong ID-card, you can gather some scandalizing footage with this little fella who innocently looks at your world from the “d”s in the word “ID CARD”. The camera records using the AVI H.263 format at 352 x 288 resolution and 15 fps. The output can be off-loaded to your PC via USB. Simple, huh.
If you think you need it, the spy avatar will cost you just about $155. All said and done, spreading evil is never our intention, so we say - just take it easy and have fun with this one.

The Clarifi lens by Griffin (Amazon, $18.35) is a really cool new iPhone case-slash-macro photo lens.
It protects your 3G iPhone (sorry, doesn't work on the "old" ones) while providing a lens for focusing up-close or on tiny objects like small print on business cards or other copy.
The lens is built-in, so you don't have to carry any extra pieces around, and doesn't interfere with normal picture-taking. When you need to take a close-up, just slide the lens over with your thumb and you're good to go.
Griffin claims their Clarifi lens lets iPhone users focus on objects only about 4 inches away, compared to the iPhone's normal 18-inch requirement.
The case itself is a tough polycarbonate with holes in all the usual places to allow accessory attachment and docking.

Forget searching for your USB cable or your card readers when you are ready to upload your camera's pictures to your computer. Instead, use an EyeFi WiFi SD memory card that will do it for you. Three different cards are available (labeled Home, Share, or Explore) and all upload to your home computer via your wireless network. The Share version will also upload directly to Flickr, Facebook, or Picasa as will the Explore card, which will also geo-tag your photo. Free shipping until January 31.
