Last time e saw the Quantum of Solace James Bond C902 phone, the US team were bitching that they couldn’t get a photo of the handset. Well, when Sony Ericsson announced it in Australia, they not only gave us photos, but attached the youTube video you see above. Essentially just a version of the trailer with slow-mo and some frames around character faces – pointing out the camera aspects of the handset – it’s still a pretty good way of promoting what is essentially a four month old phone.
The phone itself will come with 007 content preloaded (as is the case with the rest of the world), and is available now exclusively through Optus.
As most of you already know, Quantum of Solace is scheduled to hit theatres on November 14th. The second trailer for the film came out last week and while it does seem to feature some Minority Report-style gadgetry, there is still no “Q” gadget guru in the film. Personally, I love the direction that the Bond character is going in, so I haven’t really missed the over-the-top gadgetry. But what about you? Do you miss the “Q” character?
Stash it under the belly of the plane for an Indiana-Jones-style getaway once you hit the landing strip, of course. The good folks at MotoPod will mod your light aircraft with one of their aerodynamic moto-carriers, and give you a customised folding motorcycle to cram inside of it for around US$10k. Sure it’ll shave a few knots off of your cruising speed, but when you mount up with a hot blonde (or tiny Asian sidekick) and ride off on your foldable mini-Hog, you’ll know you made the right choice. And judging from the demo video, the MotoPOD looks like it could also serve as an effective canoe, nicely rounding out the land-sea-air transportation trifecta for which every adventuring anthropologist strives.
