To celebrate the upcoming release of James Bond's latest big-screen adventure "Casino Royale", Sony Electronics is offering these Limited Edition "James Bond 007 Spy Gear." Before you start thinking that (a) you're about ready to enter into the spy business yourself, or (b) Sony's about to drive Q out of business, these "spy gear" are actually uber-gadget promotional bundles featuring some of the latest from Sony's own Q branch. 007 wannabes, meet the TX and UX Spy Gear kits.

The TX features the lightweight Vaio TX notebook and a privacy filter for when you need to compose emails to M (or the girlfriend/s you have) in absolute privacy. It also includes a Cybershot DSC-T50 digicamera for photographic intelligence on-the-go. The DSC-T50 features a 3" touch panel and 7.2 megapixels of detailed digital pictures.

The UX contains the Vaio UX MicroPC (think a Sidekick on steroids), a fully-functional PC complete with 4.5" display, Intel Core Solo processor, and Windows XP Professional. The kit also includes the DSC-T50 camera, and a Vaio UX Bluetooth GPS receiver.

Sold separately from the TX and UX kits is the 007 special edition 1GB MicroVault USB drive. Good luck trying to find somewhere on your body to hide it from the KGB, though.

Both the TX and UX kits are held securely in an aluminum attache case worthy of 007's class (for its looks, not for its secret compartments). They both also include a Welcome Kit that features an exclusive welcome letter, and a serialized glass photo certificate that corresponds to your Vaio.

All in all, a bundle of high-tech to toast with a martini (shaken, not stirred). And, if that Sony battery threatens to blow up, that turns your spy kit into a handy demolition kit to blow up a Bond villain with. Okay, we kid.
