14 DAY TRIAL // Sony Ericsson announced that it would launch a limited edition Titanium silver C902 Cyber-shot phone as the one used by James Bond in the eagerly awaited Quantum of Solace movie. The handset will be released worldwide in November 2008, and it will make sure users are ready for any challenge, immersing them into the world of a secret agent with interactive 007 content and a spy-style game.
The phone, like the one James Bond – played by actor Daniel Craig in the new film – had, will be available for a limited period of time and will include a memory card loaded with a host of 007 content.
Users will get the chance to know exactly what it takes to be a secret agent like James Bond with the first level of an exclusive pre-loaded spy-style game. In addition, the full color trailer of the film, behind-the-scenes interviews with the stars and exclusive content such as wallpapers and screensavers will be available on the phone and the memory card.
The C902 Cyber-shot is used throughout the film to capture evidence and assist the agent on his mission. The 5MP camera, with a unique slide-out lens cover, illuminated touch icons providing quick and easy access to camera options, Face detection, Photo flash and Auto focus, enables James Bond to send high resolution shots back to MI6 for quick recognition of his enemies. The phone also offers BestPic, which allows users to take nine pictures of a moving object simultaneously and choose the best shot to use, plus Picture blogging, for uploading photos to blogsites, and PictBridge, for printing directly to a printer, without the need of a PC or laptop.
In August 2006, Sony Ericsson also teamed up with the famous agent to launch the limited edition James Bond Casino Royale silver K800i Cyber-shot TM camera phone and in November 2002 the Sony Ericsson P800 and T68i handsets were used by several of the cast members in the 20th James Bond movie, Die Another Day.
The C902 Cyber-shot is a UMTS/HSDPA 2100 and EDGE/GPRS 850/900/1800/1900 phone that will be available in selected markets in Titanium Silver in Q4 of 2008 for a limited period.
