Diaries of a Nokia Fan Boy

I just had the pleasure of viewing the rather interesting commercial that Nokia came out with for their N900 device. To be honest, I am seriously considering the N900, however I’m not made of money so we’ll just have to see if I can afford it.

The ad places you in focus group inside what appears to be either a mental institution or more likely a research facility. Both somewhat creepy and unusual places for phone development. The filming has a bit of a Cloverfield or District 9 feel to it, and starts off a little slow, but picks up rather quickly. There are two test subjects and two officials of sorts, the test subjects spit out import specifications for the ultimate phone, when the second test subjects starts going insane.

The entire idea is that the phone is not just a phone but a tool for content creation, sharing, spreading. The ad looks really good and is actually rather interesting, so take a look.
