IT Show 2004: Other deals

By CNETAsia staff

The IT Show is usually littered with gems if you know where to look out for them. To make your shopping experience easier, we have highlighted some of the  attractive offers found by our scouts.

See all star buys
1. Microsoft Xbox  
Star price: S$0
Retail price: S$308
Remarks: The wait is almost over. Xbox Live, Microsoft's online gaming service to be launched next month, will be unveiled at the IT Show. What better time to purchase the Xbox then now? You will need to purchase five game titles at S$69.90 each before you can receive the Xbox free. The bad news: All 500 units have been snapped up. The good news: Microsoft is extending another 500 pieces till Sunday or while stocks last. 
 
2. Targus Urban Light Backpack
Star price: S$27
Retail price: S$89
Remarks: Time to have your backpack changed? Get this Targus backpack at only S$29 with no trade-in required after all. Targus has dropped this requirement. This is available from the ATF booth.
3. Jabra FreeSpeak BT200
Star price: S$109
Retail price: S$159
Remarks: The BT200 is an inexpensive, well-featured Bluetooth headset that's less obtrusive than some designs. At such an attractive price, it's time to go wireless.

Retail price: S$288

Trade in your USB modem and this neat device can be yours for S$40 less. Plus, you'll also be rewarded with either a USB mobile charger or PDA synchronize charger.

6. Netgear DG834G 54Mbps Wireless ADSL Modem
Star price: S$311 (Bundled price)
Retail price: S$320
Remarks: SMC's coffin-box design too pedestrian for you? Then get a load of this compact Netgear. The DG834G is slightly more expensive than its rival but boasts a stylishly sleeker design, in addition to the combined ADSL modem-802.11g AP feature. Blends well with Mac products, too.

7. Innoplus Phototainer

8. Logitech QuickCam Sphere
Star price: S$279
Retail price: S$279
