almost every retailer has their own way of doing discounts, it is almost a full time job keeping track of them all. It should be good until the expiration date shown there (unless they run out of stock beforehand, which is unlikely)

I think part of the reason unboxing videos got popular was because tech/gadget blogs have/had to cover thousands of products and only have/had a small number of people working for them. So when they have a stack of gear to cover on a weekly basis, and limited time both with the borrowed gear and the employees, unboxing became the compromise between nothing and in-depth. (Interestingly though these days the trend with gadget blogs is to try to go more in-depth)

thanks for pointing it out! I forgot to mention digital camera systems in the blog-post text!

thanks for catching it! it is now corrected!

thanks for catching it! it is now corrected! It is raining zeros with all these Coolpixies!

maybe that's what they had to do to get the leaked picture? :)

DSLR/iLCs are nowhere near that number. The CIPA numbers (Jan-Nov 2011) show 14.5 million interchangeable lens cameras. The iPhones sold 37 million in just three months.

yes they do! Maybe they convinced *cough* paid *cough* them off already :) Or may be they are using the "don't let a crisis go to waste" strategy to get away with it.

There is no mirror in the camera, bad translation (by whoever Olympus hired to do the menu translations) is probably not enough to explain this. There is probably another layer of either confusion or firmware/software mess-up.
