Travel & Technology Roundup - Week 24, 2009

After taking last week off, here's a quick round up of the coolest things I found in travel and tech:

I started following Spot Cool Stuff on Twitter recently. Their bio states "Destinations, gadgets, music, movies & high design with a WOW! factor. I've learned about Goth weddings in Vegas and a fab list of travel tweeps.

Cruise Lines International has launched their new campaign, "You deserve a cruise" promoting special offers and perks from 23 different cruise lines. Personally, I'm getting into cruises at the moment since we launched our own Cruise Reviews site, with reviews of Caribbean, Alaska, Mediterranean, Antarctic and Yangtze river cruises.

From Ars Technica, how to get your hands on the new iPhone 3G as soon as possible. Unfortunately there are no hidden tricks...
