Where's Q when we need him?

Sony has announced a new 007 version. Hopefully not the Oct 2 surprise.

"The Special Edition Bond bundle for the Reader Digital Book features an embossed cover with a 007 logo and coupon codes for free downloads from the Sony eBook Store of Ian Fleming's novels Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace. "

A shame really that Ian Fleming never wrote a novel called "Quantum of Solace". It was based on the name of a short story in the anthology "For Your Eyes Only," and was never a novel. They probably mean the novelisation of the movie, which I'm fairly sure Fleming won't be writing himself

Interesting. Do you have a source link for that, Mitchll? I'd like to see more details.

Cool,

MarciaCat!

It looks like it's not a special Reader, per se, but rather a different cover.

Still, it's interesting. And, yeah, for their sake I hope it's not what they're "announcing" Thursday.
