Even for gadget freaks, it was brawny to take one’s attention away from the outstanding action that filled The Dark Knight from beginning to end, but when Morgan Freeman had to hand by his Nokia XpressMedia 5800 (or Tube, as it were) at a stop in Hong Kong, we had to take a moment and gush. Nokia’s still-not-official handset had a few critical scenes where it was highlighted, though we’d wager it was only viewable for 4 to 5 seconds in total. Beyond that, Nokia’s peculiarly designed 6630 (circa 2004) was Gordon’s handset of choice, which we risked an MPAA thug kneecapping in order to additionally snag and host up below. It’s not really critical that you go see it for a live shot of the Tube (though the incentive is nice), just assemble certain you go. Soon.

[Thanks to everyone who kept us on the lookout!]
