There is a long video with a few seconds of footage which contain no spoilers, but beware, there are some spoilers in the article on the same page:

I am very excited for this film. Quantum of Solace was one of the short stories Ian Flemming wrote in the James Bond novel 'For your eyes only' and one of the few to not be used as a film ... until now.
the short story was a boring dinner party between bond, the governer of nassau and a man and his wife, bond makes a judgement about them after they leave and the governer tells him a story to prove him wrong, the story seems to do 2 things, it shows how bond interacts with real life and is not always on a mission and it shows how he is judgemental. Now I can imagine 3 reasons why they would use Quantum of Solace as a title:
A) Bond will be shown as judgemental, this I sort of doubt\
B) Quamtum (meaning an amount of) of Solace (confort, relief), aka an amount of comfort or relief. I can see this being so because bond is going after <table><tr><td bgcolor=black><font color="black" size="2">the people who blackmailed vesper in the last film, and 'an amount of relief/comfort' wuold imply that bond finds comfort in his vengence against this enemy.</font></td></tr></table> Thus this seems very likely
C) The Producers just wanted to use an origonal flemming title again and had no idea what it means, this is perhaps the most likely scenario
I really liked Casino Royale alot and I am very exited about this film, as you can tell by my user name, I love bond films as much as indy ones. Indy 4 and Bond 22 are the 2 films I am most looking forward to in 2008
