Hi, r2,
Unless you are able to give me a little more information, I do not
think I will be able to find what you are seeking, and I will ask to
have my Answer removed.
Can I ask why you are sure the Plantronics M130 is not the headset in
question?
Thanks,

Take a look at the original question: Bond and Jinxx, toward the end
of the movie, as they board a jet. It's the beginning of the big
finale

Hi again, r2!
Well, I have tried and tried to get hold of someone in Marketing at
Plantronics, but the person to whom I was told to speak never answers
her phone, and has not returned my 2 messages. So I am going to give
you all the information I have found; I'm betting we've got exactly
what you want here.
The cell phone used in "Die Another Day" is the Sony Ericsson T68i,
with mobile MMS and Bluetooth technology:
http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/021111/112116_1.html
I think this is most likely the headset you saw in the frantic chase
scene at the end of "Die Another Day":

I have reviewed the movie again and this is absolutely not the device.
The device is made by Motorola.
At this point I am out of energy for this question and would like to
withdraw. Should I request refund or will you ask them to withdraw
your payment?

Hi, r2!
My apologies for the delay; I left town last Sunday and did not arrive
home again until late last night.
Can you tell me how you are sure the device is a Motorola?
Isn't the Motorola Bluetooth headset listed above the correct one?

Sorry, I have invested too much time in this -- Google Answers is
designed to save me time. I have no choice but to give you a low
rating on this question, though i have rated you very high on others.
In addition, I am now over my 30 day limit, so I can't ask for a
refund.
Since you never saw the device, you were really guessing - and you
guessed wrong.

r2,
I am sorry that you were dissatisfied.
Google Answers works best for both the Customer and the Researcher
when there is timely feedback. Since I did not ever hear from you
whether the Motorola device I supplied a month ago, back on December
21, was the correct one, I had no way of knowing whether I needed to
search further.

aceresearcher
