London, UK, 4th August – Sony Ericsson is excited to unveil an exclusive partnership between the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures/Columbia Pictures release of EON Productions’ 22nd James Bond adventure, QUANTUM OF SOLACE, and the C902 Titanium silver edition. The phone, as used by James Bond – played by actor Daniel Craig in the new film – will be available for a limited period and 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 colour trailer of the film, behind-the-scenes interviews with the stars and exclusive content such as wallpapers and screen savers will be available on the phone and the memory card**.

The C902 Cyber-shot™ phone is used throughout the film by James Bond 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 direct to a printer, without the need for a PC or laptop.

In August 2006, Sony Ericsson also teamed up with James Bond to launch the limited edition James Bond Casino Royale silver K800i Cyber-shot™ camera phone and in November 2002 the Sony Ericsson P800 and T68i mobile phones were used by several of the cast in the 20th James Bond film, Die Another Day.

Lennard Hoornik, Corporate Vice President and Global Head of Marketing, Sony Ericsson comments, “We are excited to announce the continuation of our relationship with the James Bond films and unveil James Bond’s new phone for this year – the limited edition version of our C902 Cyber-shot™ phone. With the rich array of content both on the phone and preloaded on a memory card bundled with the C902 Titanium silver limited edition, fans of the secret agent will only get more James Bond with Sony Ericsson.”

Daniel Craig reprises his role as Ian Fleming’s James Bond 007 in QUANTUM OF SOLACE, the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures/Columbia Pictures release of EON Productions’ 22nd adventure in the longest-running film franchise in motion picture history. The film is directed by Marc Forster. The screenplay is by Neal Purvis & Robert Wade and Paul Haggis. Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli produce.

Nokia 7310 News at SlashphoneYou can now find an unannounced model, the Nokia 7310, at some mobile phone retail shops in Taiwan and China. Not a high end model, the Nokia 7310 is tagged with a SuperNova branding. Is SuperNova the next fashion phone series from Nokia?

Nokia 7310 News at newlaunchesComing across like a cross between Nokia’s steely 6300 and 6233, the 7310 Classic has some pretty cool specs to ponder over. The Nokia 7310 Classic is a S40 powered phone, apparently it features a 3.2 megapixel camera, a 16 million color, 2.2 inch QCGA screen, built-in FM radio and music player, stereo Bluetooth A2DP, expandable memory, USB connectivity, and a 3.5 mm headphone jack.

Nokia 7310 Classic News at EngadgetMobile The phone’s now available in parts of Asia — and probably won’t make it outside of the Asian market, either, on account of a triband GSM radio that mopes along at EDGE speeds. Series 40 comes through loud and clear on a 2 inch QVGA display, while an FM radio, 2 megapixel camera, and microSD slot should be enough to keep users entertained for a while. Look for the 11.95mm-thick chunk of mirror finish to retail for something in the range of $230 in pink or blue.

Nokia 7310 News at IntoMobile This baby looks much better live and I’ve no doubt Nokia will sell tons of these. The materials used look just right and the overall size of the device (or at least thickness) makes the 7310 Classic fit perfectly in one’s hand. Enjoy the photos!

Nokia 7310 News at MobileMagWhile it is clear that Nokia is perfectly capable of pumping out some of the most powerful smartphones and multimedia phones on the planet, the Finnish phonemaker can also take care of the lower end of the market as well. Although the Nokia 7310 Classic looks like it’s going to be a budget phone with entry-level aspirations, looks can be pretty deceiving.
