Do you find yourself dreaming of the Cliq at night, or even during the day?  Then do we have a deal for you.  You can skip the pre-sale and official sales dates by going the shady route and bid for one on Ebay.  Now, there will be a generous markup applied, for the seller’s trouble and all, so don’t expect this to go cheap.  The 100% positive feedback … [read full article]
