Sony 007 Edition Laptop
Having already announced James Bond Edition K790 and K800 phones in conjunction with the upcoming movie Casino Royale, Sony has seen fit to announce a special version of its TX-series ultraportable. The 007 Edition VAIO TX provides multiple useful accessories that tie into the theme of espionage. While the 11.1-inch laptop itself is largely unchanged with a 1.2GHz low-voltage Core Solo, 1GB of RAM, and an 80GB hard drive, a privacy screen attachment prevents others from reading the display from a distance or off-angle. Appropriately, the custom edition ships with a black, 7.2-megapixel CyberShot DSC-T50B camera embossed with the 007 logo. The most unique element of Sony's bundle is a 007-themed attaché case with inserts to hold the camera, portable, and their accessories. Expectedly costly for this combination of devices, the collection is available through Sony Canada for $4299 CDN ($3821 US); a US version hasn't yet been revealed.
