Breast cancer awareness month is here, and several gadgets like the Nintendo
DS, Sony VAIO, and others
have been dipped in pink to support the cause. Geeksugar
spotted yet another pink bundle from Cannon, which the company says is already
available at www.canonestore.com/pink.
The company, along with tennis superstar Maria Sharapova, announced the bundle as part of the "Pink" campaign helping to raise awareness of breast cancer. Inside the box is a PowerShot SD1100 IS Digital ELPH camera, a SELPHY CP760 Compact Photo Printer in pink melody, a pink ribbon charm, and a mammogram reminder magnet provided by the American Cancer Society.
The PowerShot SD 1100 is an 8-megapixel camera with 3x optical zoom and image
stabilizer, and the SELPHY CP760 Compact Photo Printer is a compact printer able to print 4" x 6" photos in less than a minute. What's nice about
this type of printer is you don't need a computer to print photos, and you can preview images on its 2.5-inch display before printing. Just
insert the memory card into the printer's card slot, preview images, and print.
Canon will contribute a total of $150,000 to the American Cancer Society. Keep in mind that only a very small portion of the product's sale actually goes towards the foundation, but something is always better than nothing.

I am getting so sick of this mad rush by corporation to the pink ribbon. It is really getting old.
