What, no can opener? (The Roving Eye).

PLAYING James Bond is no longer a fantasy.

Hermosa Beach-based 308 Systems Inc. is marketing what it calls a Tactical Communications Package, a portable 30-pound briefcase containing all kinds of communications gizmos.

Although the system (unofficially billed as a "James Bond briefcase") is designed primarily for police, fire and military personnel during bio-terrorism attacks, the high-tech kit is also a useful tool for earthquakes, riots and floods.

For $8,000, the briefcase contains a laptop and all necessary software to chart and relay positions through an installed Global Positioning Satellite system, a scanner, printer, fax machine and copier--all of which can send and receive data through the cellular phone that comes with the package.

The higher-end version costs $25,000 and includes a fingerprinting scanner system linked to central fingerprint identification systems, a solar panel to recharge the eight-hour battery, a satellite phone that can send and receive messages in non-populated areas, and a digital and video camera to document disasters for future planning.

"It's like a Sears catalog," said Mark Lueker, president of 308 Systems. "You can pick and choose your components. They are designed to provide 100 percent of an agency's office capabilities out in the field."

After two years of research and development, the company put the TAC-PAK on the market two years ago. Most of its 200 sales have come in the past year, since the Sept. 11 attacks.

By late next year, the company will begin marketing its product to the private sector, targeting traveling salespeople, corporate executives on retreats and high-tech gizmo freaks.
