So this is… interesting. Given that Motorola and Orange have just launched the dual-core ATRIX Android phone in the UK, the two are now conspiring to sell the phone to gadget lovers. By dressing up a lady like she’s a cold Russian temptress from the Roger Moore era.
Which works for us. So here are the photos – FOR YOUR EYES ONLY etc etc.
She’ll have to cut off Bond’s finger in order to access the SECRET FILES.
“Ahh, Mr Bond, I see you have unlocked all of the Angry Birds maps. Most impressive. BUT WHAT ABOUT FLIGHT DIRECTOR?”
That’s illustrating the USB connector along the bottom. You can’t see it very well. Terrible photograph.
“Q? I left the keys in and it locked itself.”
And here’s the press release, so this seems more like an actual news story rather than an excuse to look at a lady’s knees and shoes:

HTC’s 4.3″ dual-core Android model, powered by Qualcomm’s all-new S4 processor. It’s smaller than the enormous One X, but is it as nice as its bigger brother? (SPOILER: Yes it is).
HTC is very much B-A-C-K at the top of the Android world with this, its quad-core flagship for 2012. Great camera, huge 4.7″ display and Android 4.0 running beautifully well.
Sony returns with an all-new mobile design for 2012, pairing a dual-core processor with a 720p display. It’s a lovely phone, but is it enough to end our Samsung and HTC obsession?
LG’s updated Prada phone comes with an absolutely crazy black & white theme, but is it just for fashionable suit wearers who want to make themselves look a bit more interesting?
