Leica's Tank-Like S2 Costs Almost As Much As a Tank
Leica's finally got a price for its 37-megapixel monster S2, with its massive 30x45mm sensor: $26,000. That's body only. A spare battery charger will cost you another $425. Yours, you rich guy you, in October. [DPReview via Wired] -

Leica's been busy lately, on the fetishistic high-end as always; their ultra-fast f/0.95 Noctilux lens wowed us a few weeks back, the new M8.2 digital rangefinder and C-Lux and D-Lux compacts also hit, and now they've expanded their digital range to include the S-series ultra high-res DSLR.

The Shiniest Pebble: Samsung's S2 MP3 Player
On paper, the Samsung YP-S2 is just another shuffle-beater, a 1GB player for $39. But in person, it's the most stylish of its class, in five colors, including those below and a white with faux marble grain. (Sadly Samsung didn't have that one on hand.) It charges via a removable USB dongle that plugs right into the 35mm headphone jack, saving space—just don't lose the extra piece. It's not fully see-through, like Sony's similar OLED-screen MP3 players, but it does have a glowing multicolored LED that is supposed to indicate status. As you can see in the gallery, it's not totally fingerprint-proof, but $39 doesn't guarantee perfection. [Samsung]
