Quantum of Solace bed and alternatives

With all of the focus on the clothes, props, etc., I'm curious if anyone owns the bed from the hotel room in QOS? Here's an article all about it:

And the bed itself:

I'm also interested to hear if anyone has modeled their own bedroom after the room in the movie or knows of any alternatives as I'm in the market to purchase a new bed myself.

Do you have any idea of the price? And are other items or accessories (vases, for instance) available?

No idea on the price. I would imagine that it's a high end piece of furniture. Here's a better picture of it along with an interesting interview with the set decorator:

Well we might finally have a good excuse for our obsessions to escape the basement and decorate our bedrooms.

Here's an affordable headboard alternative.You would still need to buy a platform bed frame:

It doesn't look like the B&B Italia one has wood on the top of the headboard, if that makes sense.
