The silver K800 / K790 phones are a natural fit with the cool, sophisticated style of James Bond. Both are capable mobile phones that also provide cutting edge camera features, a 3.2-megapixel camera with autofocus, Xenon flash for lowlight conditions and BestPic, which allows the user to take nine pictures of a moving object simultaneously and choose to keep the best shot. The phones also offer Picture Blogging for uploading photos to a personal online blogsite & PictBridge for printing direct to a printer, without the need for a PC or laptop.

High speed 3G data transfer then allow users to share images so they can share them with friends, colleagues, or even MI6.

No special edition handset would be complete without a host of "007"-themed content. The silver K800 and K790 Cyber-shot phones are equipped with Bond wallpapers, music ringtones and the full video movie trailer. The special edition Silver K800 (dual-mode UMTS 2100 MHZ and GPRS) and K790 (tri-band EDGE) Cyber-shot phones will be available worldwide during Q4 2006. These camera phones will be available for a limited period of three months.
