Sony is auctioning off a batch of Bond themed VAIO TTs

Real secret agents don’t tend to advertise the fact on their laptops, you know

Are you a big Bond fan? Are you on the lookout for a lightweight, ultra-portable laptop with all the horsepower of a full sized model? And are you prepared to pay way over the odds on an already expensive bit of kit because it has a three digit number on it? That’s good - Sony has just what you’re looking for.

Sony’s holding an auction on eBay where you can win one of a hundred, limited edition James Bond Quantum of Solace VAIO TT series laptops. This isn’t Sony being greedy either - all the proceeds will be going to the 1% for the planet charity.

One lucky winner will get the 007/100 model and that means they a special engraved 007 gun logo and a matching leather case.

Each of the VAIO TT series, Bond branded or otherwise, sports Intel Centrino 2 processor, 64GB SSD, and an 11.1″ widescreen XBRITE LCD.

Bidding had reached over $1,000 at the time of writing and is probably set to go a lot higher by the time it closes on the 21st November. The competition is only available to the US, which we’re a tad miffed about seeing as BRITAIN INVENTED BOND and we think that means we should get first dibs on any Bond related goodies. But at least that gives you almost a month to organise a safe house in the States to have the thing sent to if you win.
