Maybe I'm just used to Hong Kong cinema where the product placers get an ad in the credits.
As long as they're not holding it to the camera, pausing, and saying "on the way home from the theater, why don't you stop by your local retailer and buy some Bose speakers..." then I'm ok with it.
Alternatively, think about it as historical archiving. You know how looking at ads from the 1890s is something of a fascinating look into the past? Well, someday Casino Royale will be a look into the technology of a century earlier. Similarly, as the world changes, it makes the film ever more a product of its era and those details become more cherishable.
