Canon’s been known to leak an upcoming model or five in website descriptions, UPC codes, certification lists, and driver downloads, so pardon us if we’re not too shocked that references to a “Rebel XS / 1000D” have popped up in the latest version of the company’s RAW conversion utility. Of course, there aren’t any specs or photos, but based on Canon’s naming scheme, we’d hazard that it’ll be a lower-end version of the Rebel XSi, replacing the now somewhat-outdated Rebel XT. Of course, that’s purely conjecture, but based on Canon’s track record with these leaks, we’ll know for sure soon enough.

If I owned a car anymore I’d probably take one of Sony’s two new Xplod decks for a ride in my whip. Both the GT920U and GT620U feature support for USB flash media and pump out 52Wx4 output. The 920 has a fold-out face plate, rear USB input and it can be customized in three different colors depending on your preference. Unless you’re Matt Hickey, of course, because he can’t distinguish between red and green, but I’m pretty sure he has the ability to see blue.
The 620 only illuminates keys in blue but it has a front USB input. Both feature an auxiliary input up front, wireless remote and Sony’s Swift BrowZer. You can playback tracks that are non-DRM via CD and USB. The 620 retails for $170 and is available now while the 920 launches next month for $250.

JR.com may have
let the cat of the bag, but Creative’s not letting that stop it from getting all official with its new Vado Pocket Video Cam, which is taking square aim at the likes of Pure Digital’s
Flip Video cheapcorder. Like the Flip, Creative’s offering comes packing a lowly-but-YouTube-friendly 640 x 480 resolution, along with 2GB of built-in memory (with no expansion options), a 2-inch display, a flip-out USB connector, and a promised two hours of battery life on a charge. Not exactly the most feature-packed camera out there (even for a budget model), but the $100 price tag is certainly right, and you can get it in your choice of silver or hot pink.

It looks like your future digital camera could have considerably more wireless options than
built-in WiFi or an
Eye-Fi card, at least if Sony Ericsson has its way. As Unwired View reports, the company has filed a number patent applications that detail its plans to add various wireless connectivity options to digital cameras, including GSM, CDMA, and WiMAX, in addition to Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. That would apparently come both in the form of wireless cards built into the cameras themselves, and in the form of wireless adapters or docks that would attach to the camera, with some dedicated flash memory also thrown in for storing settings for Flickr and the like. Of course, there’s no indication as to when we have the ability to anticipate to see such cameras and, as Unwired View points out, the idea itself may not be the most patentable, but you can sign us up for any connectivity option that doesn’t involve a tangled mess of cords in our gadget bag.
