Nokia unboxing, pimped

By Molly Flatt

Great Strategy blog kindly claims that we have ‘outdone ourselves’ with our recent social challenge for the Nokia E72. As their post explains, we took the tech community’s practice of ‘unboxing’ exciting new kit and added a conversational twist, sending trial devices out to Nokia advocates old and new but locking them in perspex boxes which could only be cracked using the code hidden in the poster within.

Well, I say ‘only’… Never underestimate the hunger of a Nokia lover…

    I love the unboxing stuff, I think it’s brilliant for viral content. Wrote about it on my blog too.

    Word of mouth goes so wrong, it goes all the way round to being right again. This is too confusing for the first working day back in ’10.

    Nice. Why didn’t I get one? :)

    What’s really interesting though is that only 2 of the comments are actually comments, if you see what I mean. Tweet tweet!
