Research In Motion Prepares for Super Bowl Ad

Research In Motion Prepares for Super Bowl Ad

When it comes to reaching out to the audience, nothing else is as massive and extensive as putting up an advertisement during the Super Bowl. Research In Motion knows this all too well, so they are banking on a big-budgeted Super Bowl spot on February 3rd to promote its BlackBerry 10 software, along with its much-anticipated smartphones that run in it. It costs $4 million to secure a 30-second spot on this year's Super Bowl, not to mention the budget needed to produce the commercial.

Thin is in with the Flatlight flashlight

Thin is in with the Flatlight flashlight

Bucking traditions in the flashlight form factor, Flatlight, a Kickstarter project by Tater Tot Designs, brings in the thin. The Flatlight is 3.57″ X 1.99″ X 0.11″, giving it a credit card-like profile. An array of LED transmits light to a fiber optic backlight that evenly distributes the light through the lens. Although I don't think the Flatlight will replace your main flashlight for heavy-duty lighting needs, it does look like it would be a great lightweight addition to a purse, camera bag, or even gear bag for limited low light use.

Kate Upton washes 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA in glorious slow motion for Super Bowl

. Mercedes-Benz made news in December when we learned that Kate Upton, the Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition cover model, would be pitching the automaker's all-new 2014 CLA at the Super Bowl next month. With Mercedes determined to target a more youthful buyer for its stylish compact sedan, choosing a beautiful 20-year-old pinup seemed to make good sense.
In order to tease us before the big game, the German automaker has just released a 90-second video with the very seductive Upton interacting with soap suds and her blonde hair.
