Okay, Microsoft, we get it. Fictional characters just love Windows Phone 7. They can't string three scenes together without pulling up Maps or trying to force the phrase "Bing it" into our vernacular. This time it's Bones star Emily Deschanel, aka Dr. Temperance Brennan, whipping out an LG Quantum mid-interrogation to engage in a little textual activity -- much to the mock ire of hunky co-star David Boreanaz. But don't listen to him, he's probably just jealous they didn't have such gratuitous product placement back when he was still pretending to be a vampire. You know, back before vampires went all mainstream.
