16 Jul 09 Dell Days of Deals 2009 – Day 4: Kingston 16GB MicroSD SDHC memory card + reader $49.99 with free shipping
Well, Day 4 of the July 2009 Dell Canada Days of Deals and so far the hottest deal (by far) was the Garmin Nuvi 255w on Day 1 for $149 shipped (it sold out by the early afternoon) and hopefully you snagged one if you’re in the market for a GPS as it’s a great unit and $149 was a seriously hot price.
Today is day 4, and the most interesting deal is the Kingston 16GB MicroSD card with a MiniSD USB adapter / card reader. 16GB is pretty much the maximum size card (I know that 32GB Micro SD – MicroSDHC) are available but they’re at prices which are quite out of reach and unreasonable as far as bang for the buck goes.
The Kingston Micro SD model # MRG2+SDC2/16GB that they’re offering will be good for users with cell phones, smartphones or any mobile device that needs (and supports) 16GB memory cards. Note that it only supports Class 2 speed (out of a possible maximum of Class 6) so it may choke a bit if you plan on using it to record or play back video… other than that, it should be fine for playing music or taking digital pictures on most devices.
It’s a couple of bucks cheaper than places like NewEgg, with free shipping, so worth considering. Personally, I want to check a Class 6 card – even if it’s “only” 8GB…

10 Jul 09 Dell Days of Deals for July 2009 start Monday, July 13th !
So a quick heads up to get your credit card ready and cleared for the next round of Dell Days of Deals – scheduled to start this Monday, July 13th. If the previous days of deals are any indicator, there will be some decent deals on LCD monitors (I recommend 24″ with 1920×1080/1200 pixel resolution as a minimum).
In particular, watch for the 2707WFP or 2709W LCD monitors – hopefully under $600. These are superb monitors. Another good option is the 2407w or 2405wfp 24″ monitors. All these preceding monitors have a minimum resolution of 1920×1080 which I believe should be your new minimum resolution requirement – but only on a large enough (24″ and up) and high quality (IPS or PVA) panel. Search my previous articles for historical pricing and reviews.
Other likely deals to keep an eye out for are Canon SD series digital cameras (hopefully the SD1200is and/or SD790is) and a Garmin 2xx series GPS.

19 Jun 09 Dell UltraSharp 2709W for $599 – third time in 2009 – days of deals ; check the 2709w reviews
Dell 2709W S-PVA LCD Monitor Picture
But… today, they once again have the Dell UltraSharp 2709W 27” LCD monitor supporting 1920×1200 pixel resolution, all the input connections (HDMI, DVI, and yes – displayport) as well as 5 USB connections, an S-PVA panel, and so much more.
I wrote previously about reviews of the Dell 2709W so if you use the search feature on the top to look for my previous articles and reviews of the Dell 2709W, you’ll see that it’s been $549 and $599 so far this year.
It’s at $599 today only (until 6:00 a.m. EDT Saturday morning)… as I’ve mentioned before, I have actually used this monitor for over a year. OK, not this exact one, the 2707WFP… summary ? I love it.
BTW, Dell is experimenting with lightbox display of their promos (mistake, Mike Dell) and it’s causing so many XML errors that they have a “click here if this page isn’t displaying” option. The above link should work ok.
Wait ‘til you run it with Windows 7

07 Dec 08 Wow : Top rated Ferguson Hill FH007 speaker system for $399 on Dell Days of Deals today only ! (December 7, 2008) … most stylish speakers!
Well I just got in from some (normal?) freezing Canadian weather with snow, ice and windy cold biting mother nature outside… It was a busy day with my boys, so I apoligize if this awesome Dell Days of Deals special on the Ferguson Hill FH007 speaker system on sale today only is a bit late. Hopefully you will be reading this in time to order them. If not, perhaps this will be worthwhile for reference in the future.
The Dell Days of Deals are currently underway for the pre-Christmas December 2008 session (they have these roughly every month).
A couple of days ago, they had the 2709W 27” LCD monitor on sale for one day for $599 which is an excellent monitor at a most interesting price – the regular price was $999. I use one of these Dell 27” LCD monitors (the 2707) and absolutely love it. Stunning brightness, incredible color gamut coverage and accuracy. The 2709W may not have the grey-to-grey pixel response rate (12ms) that works for most gamers, but for most users it’s an excellent display.
Now on the those Ferguson Hill FH007 “mini speaker” systems on sale today for $399. …. (more…)

07 Oct 08 Dell Days of Deals for October 2008 : Day 2 has great Dell 5100MP DLP 1440x1050px projector at $1200 off
They’re back, and I’ll only be putting up blurbs if there are somewhat notable deals. Their deals are always a good buy, but the “regular” price that they show during these DoD specials are…. to be examined a bit closer.
Today they have the excellent 5100MP Native SXGA+ DLP projector which will put out great images for both a moderate size business conference room and since it supports video feeds up to 1080i, it could double nicely for watching video. It supports 3300 ANSI lumens which is pretty incredible considering that a native SXGA+ resolution (1400 x 1050) with that much brightness would have been $4K+ just 2-3 years ago. It also autosyncs up to 1600×1200 but remember that as with LCD screens or projectors, it’s best to drive them at their native resolution.
It’s got a decent set of inputs ; Composite Video, S-Video, Component, HDMI and of course BNC – but no Display port. It also has a built-in speaker (which, in all honesty should be used only as a backup!) and best of all…. free shipping and 3 year advance exchange service (they ship a replacement to you prior to exchange!)… all for $1699 !
A great buy for a business meeting room and don’t forget the nice Elite VMAX 100 UWH2 electric projection screen with IR and 12V remote operation capability and 100″ diagonal size (this is a steal at under $200 IMHO!)….
The 1TB external drive at $150 is also a good one.
