It has been reported that the second trailer for J.J. Abrams Star Trek feature film will be tagged onto US prints of the new James Bond movie on its cinema release. This could be seen as a bonus for US audiences as it is yet to be seen if it will be included in other markets since the US will only be getting Bond after the UK and China.
Previously a teaser trailer was released showing only the building of a Starfleet ship which appeared to be very much against Star Trek cannon and caused a general outcry by trekkies the world over in comment pages. The remarks made this week by Trek helmer Abrams stating he is a Star Wars, and not Star Trek fan will only inflame opinions. Adding to the general pessimism surrounding the new film made primarily for audiences who have not watched any Star Trek before. While not confirmed it should be expected that within a week of Bond’s US release date the Star Trek trailer will be online in the usual places like Apple’s Quicktime trailer site.

On the weekend, Wembley Stadium-England’s new home of Football (I guess Soccer, for you guys in the states) was packed with some of the latest video games, many of which hadn’t been seen by the public before in Europe, until now.
Courtesy of online entertainment store-play.com- the public and press were given the opportunity to get a look and test games such as Robert Ludlum’s Bourne Conspiracy, Time Crisis for the Playstation 3, Lego Indiana Jones and more.
Be sure to check back for more on some of the games that were on show, including cosplayers, a Rock Band contest and more of the fun that was had.
But for now, check out the car above, which was on display at the show. It’s the actual car that was used in the filming of the new James Bond flick-Quantum of Solace. Looking at it just made me want to hop in and pretend I work for MI5.

Out in the gadget wilderness there are all sorts of energy saving solar-powered concoctions designed to save the Earth like some kind of inanimate superhero, with each claiming to be more super than the last. It’s no surprise then that CES 2008 brings with it its own contenders for the next batch of gadgets to appease the likes of Al Gore.
The Voltaic Generator bag (pictured) promises to produce 14.7 watts of energy from the giant solar panel on the front of the bag, that’s enough to charge a laptop from a whole days worth of sunlight. According to Voltaic, no other bag can do this.
Every wannabe superhero comes equipped with accessories, where would Batman and James Bond be without theirs? The bag includes adaptors for phones as well as a car charger and is compatible with USB devices.
And just in case you find yourself in one of the less sunnier climes like this London-based blogger there is a battery inside should you run out of solar energy.
Of course not everyone can be superhero. Priced at a whopping $599 that’s still the case. Why are environmentally-friendly gadgets always so expensive?
