Samsung offering two-for-one cinema tickets for NV camera buyers
Although all bar one person missed out on being shot into space with a couple of Samsung NV cameras (something Gary was clearly not happy about when he reported it back in April), we can at least get a fairly decent deal on cinema outings for the next year courtesy of the company to put the first Korean digital camera in space.

People are still listening to U2?! What, are they deaf?!
Maybe they just like ground-breaking events, like the publicity stunt the band will throw in late January next year in the US. ‘U2 3D’ is the first three-dimensional full-length concert film that’s ever been made, supposedly…
