Retro to Go!

My good learned friend Arron pointed this out to me.

If you like your retro music flavoured (and I presume you do), then you could do much worse than this White Stripes special edition Lomography cameras.Both sets sell for $180 (£90) each, get them now or miss out.



You can buy them on the White Stripes website.

White Stripes news

Check this out for a novel idea. The White Stripes have created 3,333 limited edition usb drives filled with their new album, Icky Thump.

You can order one here from The White Stripes web store :

There's also more limited edition shenanigans with pre-orders for Icky Thump in CD and LP format. For a limited time, orders for the CD will include a free set of 3 button badges. The LP is double vinyl in a gatefold sleeve and is pressed on 180 Gram vinyl and for a limited time will come with a custom peppermint turntable slip mat. There is also a very limited-edition pressing of the "Icky Thump" single on 12-inch 180 gram vinyl with an etching on the B-side. Only 300 were pressed. Limit one per order.

so if you're a fan get moving, if not, you could make a profit on e-bay.
