Nokia has recently released it’s new N8 phone which boasts what is perhaps the best HD video capabilities of any phone on the market. To market the phone Nokia has put together a short film shot entirely using the N8. They also pulled in Dev Patel from Skins and Slumdog Millionaire fame and the one and only Pamela Anderson, to appear in the production. Fans could also win a contest to appear in the film. The film itself is filled with action that includes parkour chase sequence and a car chase scene. Another very clever marketing campaign from Nokia and the camera performs well albeit with a highly professional team behind it.

Le Whif’s global operations manager Thomas D. Hadfield said that the company plans to launch new flavors this year and hopes to produce an inhalable three-course meal in the indefinite future.
